contents We prove that $\mathcal{C}^{1,α}$ solutions to the Monge-Ampère system in dimension $d$ and codimension $k= d_*-d+1$, where $d_*$ denotes the Janet dimension, are dense in the space of continuous functions, for every Hölder exponent $α<1$. Our result strengthens the statement in [Lewicka 2022], obtained for $k = 2d_*$ and based on ideas from [Källen 1978] in the context of the isometric immersion system. It also generalizes the result of [Inauen-Lewicka 2025], where full flexibility was established in dimension $d=2$ and codimension $k=2$. The same proof scheme further yields local full flexibility of isometric immersions of $d$-dimensional Riemannian metrics into Euclidean space of dimension $d_* + 1$, generalizing the result in [Lewicka 2025] proved for $d=k=2$. By using techniques of [Conti-De Lellis-Szekelyhidi], the result can be extended to compact manifolds, in codimension $(d+1)d_*-d+1$.

We prove that $\mathcal{C}^{1,α}$ solutions to the Monge-Ampère system in dimension $d$ and codimension $k= d_*-d+1$, where $d_*$ denotes the Janet dimension, are dense in the space of continuous functions, for every Hölder exponent $α<1$. Our result strengthens the statement in [Lewicka 2022], obtained for $k = 2d_*$ and based on ideas from [Källen 1978] in the context of the isometric immersion system. It also generalizes the result of [Inauen-Lewicka 2025], where full flexibility was established in dimension $d=2$ and codimension $k=2$. The same proof scheme further yields local full flexibility of isometric immersions of $d$-dimensional Riemannian metrics into Euclidean space of dimension $d_* + 1$, generalizing the result in [Lewicka 2025] proved for $d=k=2$. By using techniques of [Conti-De Lellis-Szekelyhidi], the result can be extended to compact manifolds, in codimension $(d+1)d_*-d+1$.
