Elliptic Solutions to Nonsymmetric Monge-Ampère Type Equations I: the $d$-Concavity and the Comparison Principle
Ha Tien Ngoan , Thai Thi Kim Chung
We introduce the notion of $d$-concavity, $d \geq 0$, and prove that the nonsymmetric Monge-Ampère type function of matrix variable is concave in an appropriate unbounded and convex set. We prove also the comparison principle for nonsymmetric Monge-Ampère type equations in the case when they are so-called $\delta$-elliptic with respect to compared functions with $0 \leq \delta < 1$.
