Partial Legendre transforms of non-linear equations

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

The partial Legendre transform of a non-linear elliptic differential equation is shown to be another non-linear elliptic differential equation. In particular, the partial Legendre transform of the Monge-Ampère equation is another equation of Monge-Ampère type. In 1+1 dimensions, this can be applied to obtain uniform estimates to all orders for the degenerate Monge-Ampère equation with boundary data satisfying a strict convexity condition.
