We study the regularity of segregated profiles arising from competition - diffusion models, where the diffusion process is of nonlocal type and is driven by the fractional Laplacian of power $s \in (0,1)$. Among others, our results apply to…
In this paper, we consider a double-phase problem characterised by a transmission that takes place across the zero level "surface" of the minimiser of the functional $$ J(v,\Omega) = \int_\Omega \left( |D v^+|^p + |D v^-|^q \right) dx. $$…
In this paper we prove the optimal $C^{1,1}(B_\frac12)$-regularity for a general obstacle type problem $$ \lap u = f\chi_{\{u\neq 0\}}\textup{in $B_1$}, $$ under the assumption that $f*N$ is $C^{1,1}(B_1)$, where $N$ is the Newtonian…
We prove $L^q$ bounds on the restriction of spectral clusters to submanifolds in Riemannian manifolds equipped with metrics of $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity for $0 \leq \alpha \leq 1$. Our results allow for Lipschitz regularity when $\alpha…
For the Alt-Caffarelli problem, we study free boundary regularity of energy minimizers. In six dimensions, we show that free boundaries are analytic for generic boundary data. In general, we improve previous generic Hausdorff dimensions of…
We investigate the regularity of the free boundaries in the 3 elastic membranes problem. We show that the two free boundaries corresponding to the coincidence regions between consecutive membranes are $C^{1,\log}$-hypersurfaces near a…
We prove that $C^{1,\alpha}$ $s$-minimal surfaces are automatically $C^\infty$. For this, we develop a new bootstrap regularity theory for solutions of integro-differential equations of very general type, which we believe is of independent…
We discuss the H\"older regularity of solutions to the semilinear equation involving the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s u=f(u)$ in one dimension. We put in evidence a new regularity phenomenon which is a combined effect of the…
This paper is dedicated to a free boundary system arising in the study of a class of shape optimization problems. The problem involves three variables: two functions $u$ and $v$, and a domain $\Omega$; with $u$ and $v$ being both positive…
We study regularity of solutions $u$ to $\overline\partial u=f$ on a relatively compact $C^2$ domain $D$ in a complex manifold of dimension $n$, where $f$ is a $(0,q)$ form. Assume that there are either $(q+1)$ negative or $(n-q)$ positive…
We study the nonlinear steady Boltzmann equation in the half space, with phase transition and Dirichlet boundary condition. In particular, we study the regularity of the solution to the half-space problem in the situation that the gas is in…
It is well known that minimizers of the Allen-Cahn-type functional \[ J_\epsilon(u):=\int_\Omega\frac{\epsilon|\nabla u|^2}{2}+\frac{W(u)}{\epsilon}, \] where $W$ is a double-well potential, resemble minimal surfaces in the sense that their…
In the unit ball B(0,1), let $u$ and $\Omega$ (a domain in $\R$) solve the following overdetermined problem: $$\Delta u =\chi_\Omega\quad \hbox{in} B(0,1), \qquad 0 \in \partial \Omega, \qquad u=|\nabla u |=0 \quad \hbox{in} B(0,1)\setminus…
We establish the optimal $C_{H}^{1,1}$ interior regularity of solutions to \[ \Delta_{H}u=f\chi_{\{u\ne0\}}, \] where $\Delta_{H}$ denotes the sub-Laplacian operator in a stratified group. We assume the weakest regularity condition on $f$,…
In a bounded domain, we consider a variable range nonlocal operator, which is maximally isotropic in the sense that its radius of interaction equals the distance to the boundary. We establish $C^{1,\alpha}$ boundary regularity and existence…
In this paper we are concerned with higher regularity properties of the elliptic system \[ \Delta\mathbf{u}= |\mathbf{u}|^{q-1}\mathbf{u}\chi_{\{|\mathbf{u}|>0\}},\qquad\mathbf{u}=(u^1,\dots,u^m) \] for $0\leq q<1$. We show analyticity of…
We study the boundary behaviour of solutions to second order parabolic linear equations in moving domains. Our main result is a higher order boundary Harnack inequality in $C^1$ and $C^{k,\alpha}$ domains, providing that the quotient of two…
We prove that an a priori BMO gradient estimate for the two phase singular perturbation problem implies Lipschitz regularity for the limits. This problem arises in the mathematical theory of combustion where the reaction-diffusion is…

We construct non-flat minimal capillary cones with bi-orthogonal symmetry groups for any dimension and contact angle. These cones interpolate between rescalings of a singular solution to the one-phase problem and the free-boundary cone…
