AbstractWe investigate strong maximum (and minimum) principles for fully nonlinear second-order equations on Riemannian manifolds that are non-totally degenerate and satisfy appropriate scaling conditions. Our results apply to a large class of nonlinear operators, among which Pucci’s extremal operators, some singular operators such as those modeled on the p- and $$\infty $$ ∞ -Laplacian, and mean curvature-type problems. As a byproduct, we establish new strong comparison principles for some second-order uniformly elliptic problems when the manifold has nonnegative sectional curvature.

We establish the existence of solutions of fully nonlinear elliptic second-order equations like [Formula: see text] in smooth domains without requiring [Formula: see text] to be convex or concave with respect to the second-order derivatives. Apart from ellipticity nothing is required of [Formula: see text] at points at which [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is any given constant. For large [Formula: see text] some kind of relaxed convexity assumption with respect to [Formula: see text] mixed with a VMO condition with respect to [Formula: see text] are still imposed. The solutions are sought in Sobolev classes. We also establish the solvability without almost any conditions on [Formula: see text], apart from ellipticity, but of a “cut-off” version of the equation [Formula: see text].

Abstract In this paper, we mainly consider a kind of discrete second-order boundary value problem with fully nonlinear term. By using the fixed-point index theory, we obtain some existence results of positive solutions of this kind of problems. Instead of the upper and lower limits condition on f, we may only impose some weaker conditions on f.
