Overdetermined problems for fully nonlinear equations in space forms

Abstract

We study overdetermined problems for fully nonlinear elliptic equations in subdomains $\O$ of the Euclidean sphere $\mathbb{S}^{N}$ and the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^{N}$. We prove, the existence of a classical solution to the underlined equation forces $\O$ to be a geodesic ball in the ambient space. Our result extends to fully nonlinear equations, a similar result in the case of semilinear equations with the Laplace operator due to Kumaresan and Prajapat.
