Quantitative stratification for some free-boundary problems

Analysis of PDEs 2017-09-19 v3

Abstract

In this paper we prove the rectifiability of and measure bounds on the singular set of the free boundary for minimizers of a functional first considered by Alt-Caffarelli. Our main tools are the Quantitative Stratification and Rectifiable-Reifenberg framework of Naber-Valtorta, which allow us to do a type of "effective dimension-reduction." The arguments are sufficiently robust that they apply to a broad class of related free boundary problems as well.
