Title: Finite element approximation of nonconvex uniformly elliptic 
fully nonlinear equations


Abstract: We propose and analyze a two-scale finite element method for 
the Isaacs equation. By showing the consistency of the approximation and 
that the method satisfies the discrete maximum principle we establish 
convergence to the viscosity solution. By properly choosing each of the 
scales, and using the recently derived discrete Alexandrov Bakelman 
Pucci estimate we can deduce rates of convergence.
