We consider a one-phase free boundary problem involving a fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^\alpha$, $0<\alpha <1,$ and we prove that ``flat free boundaries" are $C^{1,\gamma}$. We thus extend the known result for the case $\alpha=1/2.$
The main result of this paper concerns the behavior of a free boundary arising from a minimization problem, close to the fixed boundary in two dimensions.
In this paper we are concerned with a two phase boundary obstacle-type problem for the bi-Laplace operator in the upper unit ball. The problem arises in connection with unilateral phenomena for flat elastic plates. It can also be seen as an…
In this paper we investigate a two dimensional free boundary problem involving the A-Laplacian. We show that the free boundary is represented locally by graphs of a family of continuous functions.
In this paper we consider the following two-phase obstacle-problem-like equation in the unit half-ball $\Delta u = \lambda_{+}\chi_{\{u>0\}}-\lambda_{-}\chi_{\{u<0\}}, \lambda_\pm>0$. We prove that the free boundary touches the fixed one in…
We prove $C^{2,\alpha}$ regularity of sufficiently flat free boundaries, for the thin one-phase problem in which the free boundary occurs on a lower dimensional subspace. This problem appears also as a model of a one-phase free boundary…
The aim of this paper is to study a class of nonlocal fractional Laplacian equations depending on two real parameters. More precisely, by using an appropriate analytical context on fractional Sobolev spaces due to Servadei and Valdinoci, we…
For a one-phase free boundary problem involving a fractional Laplacian, we prove that "flat free boundaries" are $C^{1,\alpha}$. We recover the regularity results of Caffarelli for viscosity solutions of the classical Bernoulli-type free…
We compare two singularly perturbed elliptic systems modeling partially phase segregation. Although the formulations are fundamentally different, we prove that their limiting configurations have identical free boundaries. The result shows…
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…
We consider a one-phase free boundary problem governed by doubly degenerate fully non-linear elliptic PDEs with non-zero right hand side, which should be understood as an analog (non-variational) of certain double phase functionals in the…
The fractional Laplacian operator, $-(-\triangle)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}$, appears in a wide class of physical systems, including L\'evy flights and stochastic interfaces. In this paper, we provide a discretized version of this operator which…
For the fully nonlinear Alt-Phillips problem with parameter $\gamma\in(1,2)$, we show that the free boundary intersects the fixed boundary tangentially where the Dirichlet data vanish. For this range of $\gamma$, this result is new even…
Using a direct approach, we prove a $2$-dimensional epiperimetric inequality for the one-phase problem in the scalar and vectorial cases and for the double-phase problem. From this we deduce, in dimension $2$, the $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity…
We discuss the extent to which solutions to one-phase free boundary problems can be characterized according to their topological complexity. Our questions are motivated by fundamental work of Luis Caffarelli on free boundaries and by…
The aim of this paper is first to give necessary and sufficient condition of existence (of free boundaries) for both Laplacian and bi-Laplacian operators in the case where the overdetermined condition is not constant. second, by using some…
The aim of this paper is two-fold: first, we look at the fractional Laplacian and the conformal fractional Laplacian from the general framework of representation theory on symmetric spaces and, second, we construct new boundary operators…
In this paper we focus the attention on free boundary problems ruled by partial differential equations with nonstandard growth, presenting in particular some recent results. The interest in these problems stems from the diverse applications…
We discuss the optimal regularity and nondegeneracy of a free boundary problem related to the fractional Laplacian. This work is related to, but addresses a different problem from, recent work of Caffarelli, Roquejoffre, and Sire. A variant…
In this work, we study the asymptotic behavior of the free boundary of the solution to the exterior Bernoulli problem for the half Laplacian when the Bernoulli's gradient parameter tends to $0^+$ and to $+\infty$. Moreover, we show that,…
