The arguments in paper [2] have been refined to prove amicroscopic convexity principle for fully nonlinear ellipticequation under a more natural structure condition. We also consider the correspondingresult for the partial convexity case.
Keywords: Convexity, partial convexity, constant rank principle., fully nonlinear equations.
