Liouville theorems and optimal regularity in elliptic equations

The objective of this paper is to establish a connection between the problem of optimal regularity among solutions to elliptic partial differential equations with measurable coefficients and the Liouville property at infinity. Initially, we address the two-dimensional case by proving an Alt-Caffarelli-Friedman-type monotonicity formula, enabling the proof of optimal regularity and the Liouville property for multiphase problems. In higher dimensions, we delve into the role of monotonicity formulas in characterizing optimal regularity. By employing a hole-filling technique, we present a distinct "almost-monotonicity" formula that implies Holder regularity of solutions. Finally, we explore the interplay between the least growth at infinity and the exponent of regularity by combining blow-up and G$G$-convergence arguments.
