In this paper we study the $L^p$ boundary value problems for $\mathcal{L}(u)=0$ in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}_+$, where $\mathcal{L}=-\text{div}(A\nabla)$ is a second order elliptic operator with real and symmetric coefficients. Assume that $A$ is…

In this paper, we study local minimizers of a degenerate version of the Alt-Caffarelli functional. Specifically, we consider local minimizers of the functional $J_{Q}(u, \Omega):= \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|^2 + Q(x)^2\chi_{\{u>0\}}dx$ where…

In this article, we consider a class of degenerate singular problems. The degeneracy is captured by the presence of a class of $p$-admissible weights, which may vanish or blow up near the origin. Further, the singularity is allowed to vary…
