We study solutions to a variational equation that models heat control on the boundary. This problem can be thought of as the two phase parabolic Signorini problem. We show that when the solution has a sign on the boundary, the study of the…

Let $G$ be a graph and $v$ any vertex of $G$. We define the degenerate degree of $v$, denoted by $\zeta(v)$ as $\zeta(v)={\max}_{H: v\in H}~\delta(H)$, where the maximum is taken over all subgraphs of $G$ containing the vertex $v$. We show…

This introduction to graphs and graph algebras provides the optimal bound for the number of all paths of length $k$ in a graph with $N\geq k$ edges and no loops. Our proof relies on a construction of a number of terminating algorithms that…

We consider the stationary sine-Gordon equation on metric graphs with simple topologies. The vertex boundary conditions are provided by flux conservation and matching of derivatives at the star graph vertex. Exact analytical solutions are…

We prove that minimal graphs (other than planes) are parabolic in the sense that any bounded harmonic function is determined by its boundary values. The proof relies on using the coupling introduced in the author's earlier paper "A…

We study higher critical points of the variational functional associated with a free boundary problem related to plasma confinement. Existence and regularity of minimizers in elliptic free boundary problems have already been studied…

Many important results in extremal graph theory can be roughly summarised as "if a triangle-free graph $G$ has certain properties, then it has a homomorphism to a triangle-free graph $\Gamma$ of bounded size". For example, bounds on…

Let $(\Sigma,g)$ be a compact Riemann surface with smooth boundary $\partial\Sigma$, $\Delta_g$ be the Laplace-Beltrami operator, and $h$ be a positive smooth function. Using a min-max scheme introduced by Djadli-Malchiodi (2006) and Djadli…

We study two phase problems posed over a two dimensional cone generated by a smooth curve $\gamma$ on the unit sphere. We show that when $length(\gamma)<2\pi$ the free boundary avoids the vertex of the cone. When $length(\gamma) \geq 2\pi$…

In this paper, we study the 2D free boundary incompressible Euler equations with surface tension, where the fluid domain is periodic in $x_1$, and has finite depth. We construct initial data with a flat free boundary and arbitrarily small…

We consider the class of measurable functions defined in all of $\mathbb{R}^n$ that give rise to a nonlocal minimal graph over a ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We establish that the gradient of any such function is bounded in the interior of the…

In this paper we establish a connection between free boundary minimal surfaces in a ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and free boundary cones arising in a one-phase problem. We prove that a doubly connected minimal surface with free boundary in a ball…

In this paper we study the two-phase Bernoulli type free boundary problem arising from the minimization of the functional $$ J(u):=\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^p +\lambda_+^p\,\chi_{\{u>0\}} +\lambda_-^p\,\chi_{\{u\le 0\}}, \quad 1<p<\infty. $$…

For a bounded smooth domain in the plane and smooth boundary data we consider the minimisation of the Willmore functional for graphs subject to Dirichlet or Navier boundary conditions. For $H^2$-regular graphs we show that bounds for the…

In this paper we study a one phase free boundary problem for the p(x)-Laplacian with non-zero right hand side. We prove that the free boundary of a weak solution is a C^1 surface in a neighborhood of every free boundary point. We also…

A global approach leading to a self-consistent solution to the Navier-Stokes-Prandtl equations for zero-pressure-gradient boundary layers is presented. It is shown that as $Re_{\delta}\rightarrow \infty$, the dynamically defined boundary…

We obtain sharp bounds for the number of n-cycles in a finite graph as a function of the number of edges, and prove that the complete graph is optimal in more ways than could be imagined. En route, we prove some sharp estimates on power…

In this paper we study one dimensional parabolic free boundary value problem with a nonlocal (integro-differential) condition on the free boundary. We establish global existence-uniqueness of classical solutions assuming that the…

We give a survey of various existence results for minimal Lagrangian graphs. We also discuss the mean curvature flow for Lagrangian graphs.

We prove that the (divisorial) gonality of a finite connected graph is lower bounded by its treewidth. We show that equality holds for grid graphs and complete multipartite graphs. We prove that the treewidth lower bound also holds for…
