Popis: This work introduces finite element methods for a class of elliptic fully nonlinear partial differential equations. They are based on a minimal residual principle that builds upon the Alexandrov--Bakelman--Pucci estimate. Under rather general structural assumptions on the operator, convergence of $C^1$ conforming and discontinuous Galerkin methods is proven in the $L^\infty$ norm. Numerical experiments on the performance of adaptive mesh refinement driven by local information of the residual in two and three space dimensions are provided.
