Abstract

We derive an energy bound, estimating a weighted Dirichlet integral of two solutions for the nonparametric equation with prescribed mean curvature in n dimensions in terms of the L1-norm for the difference of their values on the boundary. Furthermore, a similar estimate is established for solutions of the equation divFp(·,∇u)=nH(·,u), where F(x,p) denotes an elliptic Lagrangian with linear growth in p. These results are used to remove singularities of solutions to these equations.
