The free boundary for the Signorini problem in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is smooth outside of a degenerate set, which can have the same dimension ($n-1$) as the free boundary itself. In [FR21] it was shown that generically, the set where the free…

We study the Signorini problem near a fixed boundary, where the solution is "clamped down" or "glued." We show that in general the solutions are at least $C^{1/2}$ regular and that this regularity is sharp. We prove that near the actual…

Let $2\le n\le9$. Suppose that $f:R\to R$ is locally Lipschitz function satisfying $f(t)\ge A\min\{0,t\}-K$ for all $t\in R$ with some constant $A\ge0$ and $K\ge 0$. We establish an a priori interior H\"older regularity of $C^2$-stable…

In this article we establish for the first time the $C^s$ boundary regularity of solutions to nonlocal elliptic equations with kernels $K(y)\asymp |y|^{-n-2s}$. This was known to hold only when $K$ is homogeneous, and it is quite surprising…
