We consider the mixed Dirichlet-conormal problem on irregular domains in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Two types of regularity results will be discussed: the $W^{1,p}$ regularity and a non-tangential maximal function estimate. The domain is assumed to be…
We study a 2-phase free boundary problem for harmonic measure first considered by Kenig and Toro and prove a sharp H\"older regularity result. The central difficulty is that there is no a priori non-degeneracy in the free boundary…

We study two phase problems posed over a two dimensional cone generated by a smooth curve $\gamma$ on the unit sphere. We show that when $length(\gamma)<2\pi$ the free boundary avoids the vertex of the cone. When $length(\gamma) \geq 2\pi$…
We study the free boundary of the porous medium equation with nonlocal drifts in dimension one. Under the assumption that the initial data has super-quadratic growth at the free boundary, we show that the solution is smooth in space and…
We consider a one-phase nonlocal free boundary problem obtained by the superposition of a fractional Dirichlet energy plus a nonlocal perimeter functional. We prove that the minimizers are H\"older continuous and the free boundary has…
