This paper deals with the obstacle problem for the fractional infinity Laplacian with nonhomogeneous term $f(u)$, where $f:\mathbb{R}^+ \mapsto \mathbb{R}^+$: $$\begin{cases} L[u]=f(u) &\qquad in \{u>0\}\\ u \geq 0 &\qquad in\, \Omega\\ u=g…

We present existence and nonexistence results on the solution of an overdetermined problem for the normalized p-Laplacian in a bounded open set, with p ranging from 1 to infinity. More precisely we consider a non-constant Neumann condition…

In this paper, we prove the regularity of the free boundary in the Monge-Amp\`ere obstacle problem $\det D^2 v= f(y)\chi_{\{v>0\}}. $ By duality, the regularity of the free boundary is equivalent to that of the asymptotic cone of the…
We study the obstacle problem for the Evolutionary p-Laplace Equation when the obstacle is discontinuous and without regularity in the time variable. Two quite different procedures yield the same solution.
We study some regularity issues for solutions of non-autonomous obstacle problems with $(p,q)$-growth. Under suitable assumptions, our analysis covers the main models available in the literature.
We consider the Bernoulli one-phase free boundary problem in a domain $\Omega$ and show that the free boundary $F$ is $C^{1,1/2}$ regular in a neighborhood of the fixed boundary $\partial \Omega$. We achieve this by relating the behavior of…
We consider the well-known following shape optimization problem: $$\lambda_1(\Omega^*)=\min_{\stackrel{|\Omega|=a} {\Omega\subset{D}}} \lambda_1(\Omega), $$ where $\lambda_1$ denotes the first eigenvalue of the Laplace operator with…
In this paper we establish the exact growth of the solution of the singular quasilinear p-parabolic obstacle problem near the free boundary from which we deduce its porosity.
This paper investigates the regularity of solutions and structural properties of the free boundary for a class of fourth-order elliptic problems with Neumann-type boundary conditions. The singular and degenerate elliptic operators studied…
Despite significant recent advances in the regularity theory for obstacle problems with integro-differential operators, some fundamental questions remained open. On the one hand, there was a lack of understanding of parabolic problems with…
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 $f$,…
We study the free boundary in an unstable parabolic problem arising from a model in combustion. We consider the physical situation in which the heat advances and prove that the free boundary is a $C^{1,\alpha/2}$ hypersurface.
We provide sharp boundary regularity estimates for solutions to elliptic equations driven by an integro-differential operator obtained as the sum of a Laplacian with a nonlocal operator generalizing a fractional Laplacian. Our approach…
We study a class of semilinear free boundary problems in which admissible functions $u$ have a topological constraint, or spanning condition, on their 1-level set. This constraint forces $\{u=1\}$, which is the free boundary, to behave like…
We study the obstacle problem with an elliptic operator in nondivergence form with principal coefficients in VMO. We develop all of the basic theory of existence, uniqueness, optimal regularity, and nondegeneracy of the solutions. These…
