| dc.description | We prove comparison, uniqueness and existence results for viscosity solutions to a wide class of fully nonlinear second order partial differential equations $F(x, u, du, d^{2}u)=0$ defined on a finite-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$. Finest results (with hypothesis that require the function $F$ to be degenerate elliptic, that is nonincreasing in the second order derivative variable, and uniformly continuous with respect to the variable $x$) are obtained under the assumption that $M$ has nonnegative sectional curvature, while, if one additionally requires $F$ to depend on $d^{2}u$ in a uniformly continuous manner, then comparison results are established with no restrictive assumptions on curvature. | |
| dc.description | Final version: the domain of F in the equation F=0 has been changed in order to get more generality and simplicity in the definitions and assumptions, and several important misprints have been corrected | |
