Math", "categories": [ "math.AP" ], "abstract": "We prove that solutions to the Monge-Ampere inequality $$\\det D^2u \\geq 1$$ in $\\mathbb{R}^n$ are strictly convex away from a singular set of Hausdorff $n-1$ dimensional measure zero. Furthermore, we show this is optimal by constructing solutions to $\\det D^2u = 1$ with singular set of Hausdorff dimension as close as we like to $n-1$. As a consequence we obtain $W^{2,1}$ regularity for the Monge-Ampere equation with bounded right hand side and unique continuation for the Monge-Ampere equation with sufficiently regular right hand side.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2013-08-01T15:36:33.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "monge-ampere equation", "singular solutions", "partial regularity", "sufficiently regular right hand side", "singular set" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1304.2706M" } } }
