Trudinger–Wang conjecture on the affine mean-convex first boundary value problem

At least 8 years old · documented by

Let Ω⊂Rn\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n be the domain and let ϕ\phi be the prescribed smooth, strictly convex boundary function in the first boundary value problem. Let HA[ϕ]H_{\mathcal{A}}[\phi] denote the affine mean curvature of the graph of ϕ\phi, and call ϕ\phi affine mean convex when

HA[ϕ]>0.H_{\mathcal{A}}[\phi]>0.

Trudinger–Wang's conjecture. The first boundary value problem has a unique smooth solution uu if ϕ\phi is affine mean convex. This conjecture concerns existence and uniqueness for the prescribed affine mean curvature equation with first boundary data. The source presents it as an open problem, following partial results for weak solutions and interior regularity.
