The $k$-convex functions are the viscosity subsolutions to the fully nonlinear elliptic equations $F_{k}[u]=0$, where $F_{k}[u]$ is the elementary symmetric function of order $k$, $1\leq k\leq n$, of the eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix $D^{2}u$. For example, $F_{1}[u]$ is the Laplacian $\Delta u$ and $F_{n}[u]$ is the real Monge-Ampère operator det $D^{2}u$, while $1$-convex functions and $n$-convex functions are subharmonic and convex in the classical sense, respectively. In this paper, we establish an approximation theorem for negative $k$-convex functions, and give several estimates for the mixed $k$-Hessian operator. Applications of these estimates to the $k$-Green functions are also established.
