We study the regularity of the free boundary in the parabolic obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$ (and more general integro-differential operators) in the regime $s>\frac{1}{2}$. We prove that once the free boundary…
We consider the optimization problem of minimizing $\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^{p(x)}+ \lambda \chi_{\{u>0\}} dx$ in the class of functions $W^{1,p(\cdot)}(\Omega)$ with $u-\phi_0\in W_0^{1,p(\cdot)}(\Omega)$, for a given $\phi_0\geq 0$ and…
We consider maps $T$ solving the optimal transport problem with a cost $c(x-y)$ modeled on the $p$-cost. For H\"older continuous marginals, we prove a $C^{1,\alpha}$-partial regularity result for $T $in the set $\{|T(x)-x|>0\}$.

We consider optimal transport problems where the cost is optimized over controlled dynamics and the end time is free. Unlike the classical setting, the search for optimal transport plans also requires the identification of optimal "stopping…
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ be a bounded, convex domain and let $u$ be the solution of $-\Delta u = 1$ vanishing on the boundary $\partial \Omega$. The estimate $$ \| \nabla u\|_{L^{\infty}(\Omega)} \leq c |\Omega|^{1/2}$$ is…
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…
Large optimal transport problems can be approached via domain decomposition, i.e. by iteratively solving small partial problems independently and in parallel. Convergence to the global minimizers under suitable assumptions has been shown in…
We study the behavior of solutions to the first-order mean field games system with a local coupling, when the initial density is a compactly supported function on the real line. Our results show that the solution is smooth in regions where…
Many causal and structural parameters in economics can be identified and estimated by computing the value of an optimization program over all distributions consistent with the model and the data. Existing tools apply when the data is…
