Abstract: We derive a priori interior Hessian estimates and interior regularity for the $\sigma_2$ equation in dimension four. Our method provides both a new proof for the corresponding three dimensional results and a Hessian estimate for smooth solutions satisfying a dynamic semi-convexity condition in higher $(n\ge 5)$ dimensions.
