For free boundary problems on Euclidean spaces, the monotonicity formulas of Alt-Caffarelli-Friedman and Caffarelli-Jerison-Kenig are cornerstones for the regularity theory as well as the existence theory. In this article we establish the…

We study the free-boundary equation \[ \Delta u=\chi_{\{|\nabla u|>0\}} \] near the origin. We prove that, at a singular point of \(\partial\{|\nabla u|>0\}\), the quadratic blow-up is unique. As noted in \cite[Notes to Chapter 7]{PSU2012},…
