Title: the Bernstein Theorem for a Class of Fourth Order Equations

Abstract: in this talk, we concern on a class of fourth order equations
of Monge-Ampere type. In particular, affine maximal surface equation from
affine geometry and Abreu’s equation arising from scalar curvature equation
on toric Kahler manifolds are included. I will talk about the 2-dimensional
Bernstein theorem for these equations, i.e., the entire solution to these
equations must be quadratic polynomials. The main ingredients are interior
estimates and the proof of strict convexity for the solutions.
