In this note, we use an epiperimetric inequality approach to study the regularity of the free boundary for the parabolic Signorini problem. We show that if the "vanishing order" of a solution at a free boundary point is close to $3/2$ or an…
Let $\Omega\subset R^n$ be a bounded convex domain with $n\ge2$. Suppose that $A$ is uniformly elliptic and belongs to $W^{1,n}$ when $n\ge 3$ or $W^{1,q}$ for some $q>2$ when $n=2$. For $1<p<\infty$, we build up a global second order…
We derive optimal estimates in stochastic homogenization of linear elliptic equations in divergence form in dimensions $d\ge 2$. In previous works we studied the model problem of a discrete elliptic equation on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. Under the…
We prove that if $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n$ is a bounded open set and $n\alpha> {\rm dim}_b (\partial \Omega) = d$, then the Brouwer degree deg$(v,\Omega,\cdot)$ of any H\"older function $v\in C^{0,\alpha}\left (\Omega, \mathbb…
We consider the wave equation on a manifold $(\Omega,g)$ of dimension $d\geq 2$ with smooth strictly convex boundary $\partial\Omega\neq\emptyset$, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We construct a sharp local in time parametrix and then…

Weakly harmonic maps from a domain $\Omega$ (the upper half-space $\Rd$ or a bounded $C^{1,\alpha}$ domain, $\alpha\in (0,1]$) into a smooth closed manifold are studied. Prescribing small Dirichlet data in either of the classes…
Let $(\Omega,g)$ be a piecewise-smooth, bounded convex domain in $\R^2$ and consider $L^2$-normalized Neumann eigenfunctions $\phi_{\lambda}$ with eigenvalue $\lambda^2$ and $u_{\lambda}:= \phi_{\lambda} |_{\partial \Omega}$ the associated…

We present new tight bounds for averaging differential inclusions, which we apply to multi-frequency inclusions consisting of a sum of time periodic set-valued mappings. For this family of inclusions we establish an a tight estimate of…
We propose a novel approach to analyze generalization error for discretizations of Langevin diffusion, such as the stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (SGLD). For an $\epsilon$ tolerance of expected generalization error, it is known that…
We establish sharp higher-order H\"older regularity estimates up to the boundary for solutions to equations of the form $\partial_t u-Lu=f(t,x)$ in $I\times\Omega$ where $I\subset\mathbb{R}$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ and $f$ is H\"older…
We prove a stochastic homogenization result for a class of \emph{nonlinear} and \emph{nonlocal} variational problems in domains with many small randomly distributed (bilateral) obstacles. Our model case is a Dirichlet problem for the…
We consider a homogenization problem for the diffusion equation $-\operatorname{div}\left(a_{\varepsilon} \nabla u_{\varepsilon} \right) = f$ when the coefficient $a_{\varepsilon}$ is a non-local perturbation of a periodic coefficient. The…
In this paper, we analyze the random fluctuations in a one dimensional stochastic homogenization problem and prove a central limit result, i.e., the first order fluctuations can be described by a Gaussian process that solves an SPDE with…

This work showcases level set estimates for weak solutions to the $p$-Poisson equation on a bounded domain, which we use to establish Lebesgue space inclusions for weak solutions. In particular we show that if $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ is…
