We study the structure of solutions of the interior Bernoulli free boundary problem for $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}$ on an interval $D$ with parameter $\lambda > 0$. In particular, we show that there exists a constant $\lambda_{\alpha,D} > 0$…

We study the regularity up to the boundary of solutions to the Dirichlet problem for the fractional Laplacian. We prove that if $u$ is a solution of $(-\Delta)^s u = g$ in $\Omega$, $u \equiv 0$ in $\R^n\setminus\Omega$, for some…
We consider the functional \[ F(u)=\int_{\Omega} f(\nabla u)\,dx\qquad u\in\varphi+W^{1,1}_0(\Omega) \] where $\Omega$ is a Lipschitz bounded open set of $\R^N$, $f:\R^N\to\R\cup \{+\infty\}$ is a superlinear Borel function, $\varphi\in…
We study the existence, uniqueness and regularity of solutions of the equation $f_t = \Delta_p f = \text{div} (|Df|^{p-2} Df)$ under over-determined boundary conditions $f = 0$ and $|Df| = 1$. We show that if the initial data is concave and…
We make explicit the $p$-dependence of $C$ in the gradient estimate $\left\Vert \nabla u\right\Vert _{\infty}^{p-1}\leq C\left\Vert f\right\Vert _{N,1}$ by Cianchi and Maz'ya (2011). In such inequality, the constant $C$ is uniform with…
