On the Sets of Regularity of Solutions for a Class of Degenerate Nonlinear Elliptic Fourth-Order Equations with Data

Abstract

We establish Hölder continuity of generalized solutions of the Dirichlet problem, associated to a degenerate nonlinear fourth-order equation in an open bounded set, with data, on the subsets of where the behavior of weights and of the data is regular enough.
