Summary
Unveiling Semiconvex Functions: A Journey Through Potential Theories and Nonlinear PDEs
This book delves into the fascinating relationship between fully nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations and general potential theories of second order. It begins with a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the classical theory of first and second-order differentiability for convex functions, then builds upon this foundation to explore how to handle second-order differentiabilit…
