Abstract
We study rigidity/flexibility properties of global solutions to the thin obstacle problem. For solutions with bounded positive sets, we give a classification in terms of their expansions at infinity. For solutions with bounded contact sets, we show that the contact sets are highly flexible and can approximate arbitrary compact sets. These phenomena have no counterparts in the classical obstacle problem.
