On démontre l’existence de solutions classiques pour certaines équations elliptiques du deuxième ordre, fortement non linéaires, ayant des coefficients d’ordre zéro assez grands. On utilise essentiellement une estimation a priori impliquant que la norme C 2,α de la solution ne peut appartenir à un intervalle de la demi-droite réelle positive.

We prove the existence of classical solutions to certain fully non-linear second order elliptic equations with large zeroth order coefficient. The principal tool is an a priori estimate asserting that the C 2,α -norm of the solution cannot lie in a certain interval of the positive real axis.
