Abstract

Suppose that H ∈ C1,1(ℝ2) satisfies that H is locally strongly convex in ℝ2 and H(0) = minp∈2 H(p) = 0. Let Ω ⊂ ℝ2 be any domain. For any u absolute minimizer for H in Ω, or equivalently, for any viscosity solution to the Aronsson equation AH[u] = P2i,j=1 Hpi(Du)Hpj (Du)uxixj = 0 in Ω, the following are proven in this paper: (i) We have [H(Du)]α ∈ W1loc2 (Ω) whenever α > 1/2 − τH(0); some quantitative upper bounds are also given. Here τH(0) = 1/2 when H ∈ C2(ℝ2), and 0 < τH(0) ≤ 1/2 in general. (ii) The distributional determinant −detD2u dx is a nonnegative Radon measure in Ω and enjoys some quantitative lower/upper bounds. (iii) For all α > 21 − τH(0), we have 〈D[H(Du)]α, DpH(Du)〉 = 0 almost everywhere in Ω.
