Statement flagged by 0 users
Reason: First published version. States the converse direction: a viscosity subsolution or supersolution that is of class C^2 satisfies the corresponding classical inequality at every point, with no ellipticity hypothesis on the operator.

Statement

Let nn be a natural number, let URnU\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n be an open subset of Euclidean space Rn\mathbb{R}^n, let R\mathbb{R} be the set of real numbers, let FF be a second-order equation operator on UU, and let u:URu:U\to\mathbb{R} be of class C2C^2 on UU. No ellipticity hypothesis is imposed on FF.

Then the following hold.

1. (Subsolutions) If uu is a viscosity subsolution of FF on UU, then uu is a classical subsolution of FF on UU.

2. (Supersolutions) If uu is a viscosity supersolution of FF on UU, then uu is a classical supersolution of FF on UU.
