We investigate the regularity of the free boundary for the Signorini problem in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. It is known that regular points are $(n-1)$-dimensional and $C^\infty$. However, even for $C^\infty$ obstacles $\varphi$, the set of…

We investigate variable coefficient analogs of a recent work of Bortz, Hofmann, Martell and Nystr\"om [BHMN25]. In particular, we show that if $\Omega$ is the region above the graph of a Lip(1,1/2) (parabolic Lipschitz) function and $L$ is…
