Second-order boundary estimates for solutions to a class of quasilinear elliptic equations

Abstract

We prove global second-order regularity for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations, both with homogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. A condition on the integrability of the second fundamental form on the boundary of the domain is required. As a consequence, with the additional assumption that the source term has a sign, we obtain integrability properties of the inverse of the gradient of the solution. Assuming convexity of the domain, no boundary regularity is required.
