Regularity results for solutions to obstacle problems with Sobolev coeffcients
We establish the higher differentiability of solutions to a class of obstacle problems for integral functionals where the convex integrand f satisfies p-growth conditions with respect to the gradient variable. We derive that the higher differentiability property of the weak solution v is related to the regularity of the assigned , under a suitable Sobolev assumption on the partial map that measures the oscillation of f with respect to the x variable. The main novelty is that such assumption is independent of the dimension n and that, in the case p<=n-2, improves previous known results.
