In particular, our analysis covers the $p$-harmonic and the minimal surface equations. As an auxiliary result, we obtain higher Sobolev regularity properties of the solutions, including the $W^{2,2}$ regularity. The results are complemented by a number of estimates for the derivatives $L'$ and $L''$ of the length of the level curve function $L$, as well as by examples illustrating the presentation. Our work generalizes results due to Alessandrini, Longinetti, Talenti and Lewis in the Euclidean setting, as well as a recent article of ours devoted to the harmonic case on surfaces.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-03-28T09:31:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35R01", "58E20", "31C12", "53C21" ], "keywords": [ "harmonic functions", "higher sobolev regularity properties", "level curve function", "work generalizes results", "minimal surface equations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
