Regularity of the free boundary for a parabolic cooperative system

Analysis of PDEs 2021-06-09 v1

Abstract

In this paper we study the following parabolic system \begin{equation*} \Delta \u -\partial_t \u =|\u|^{q-1}\u\,\chi_{\{ |\u|>0 \}}, \qquad \u = (u^1, \cdots , u^m) \ , \end{equation*} with free boundary {˘>0}\partial \{|\u | >0\}. For 0q<10\leq q<1, we prove optimal growth rate for solutions \u to the above system near free boundary points, and show that in a uniform neighbourhood of any a priori well-behaved free boundary point the free boundary is C1,αC^{1, \alpha} in space directions and half-Lipschitz in the time direction.
