Partial regularity and Liouville theorems for stable solutions of anisotropic elliptic equations

We study the quasilinear elliptic equation \begin{equation*} -Qu=e^u \ \ \text{in} \ \ Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^{N} \end{equation*} where the operator $Q$, known as Finsler-Laplacian (or anisotropic Laplacian), is defined by $Qu:=\sum_{i=1}^{N}\frac{\partial}{\partial x_{i}}(F(\nabla u)F_{ξ_{i}}(\nabla u)),$ where $F_{ξ_{i}}=\frac{\partial F}{\partialξ_{i}}$ and $F: \mathbb{R}^{N}\rightarrow[0,+\infty)$ is a convex function of $C^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{N}\setminus\{0\})$, that satisfies certain assumptions. For bounded domain $Ω$ and for a stable weak solution of the above equation, we prove that the Hausdorff dimension of singular set does not exceed $N-10$. For the entire space, we apply Moser iteration arguments, established by Dancer-Farina and Crandall-Rabinowitz in the context, to prove Liouville theorems for stable solutions and for finite Morse index solutions in dimensions $N<10$ and $2<N<10$, respectively. We also provide an explicit solution that is stable outside a compact set in $N=2$. In addition, we provide similar Liouville theorems for the power-type nonlinearities.
