Holder continuity of bounded generalized solutions for nonlinear fourth-order elliptic equations with strengthened coercivity and natural growth terms

Mykhailo V. Voitovych

Abstract:
In this article we extend the author's previous results on the existence of bounded generalized solutions of a Dirichlet problem for nonlinear elliptic fourth-order equations with the principal part satisfying a strengthened coercivity condition, and a lower-order term having a "natural" growth with respect to the derivatives of the unknown function. Namely, we prove the Holder continuity of bounded generalized solutions of such equations.
