We consider an infinite system of particles on the positive real line, initiated from a Poisson point process, which move according to Brownian motion up until the hitting time of a barrier. The barrier increases when it is hit, allowing…
Most heat transfer models for bulk crystal growth rely on the classical Stefan formulation to evaluate interface motion during phase change. However, when the interface is non-smooth the use of the classical Stefan formulation may lead to…

We investigate the regularizing behavior of two-phase Stefan problem near initial data. The main step in the analysis is to establish that in any given scale, the scaled solution is very close to a Lipschitz profile in space-time. We…
The present article is dedicated to the forward and backward solution of a transient one-phase Stefan problem. In the forward problem, we compute the evolution of the initial domain for a Stefan problem where the melting temperature varies…
We establish symmetry results for two categories of overdetermined obstacle problems: a Serrin-type problem and a two-phase problem under the overdetermination that the interface serves as a level surface of the solution. The first proof…
Locally stable minimal hypersurface could have singularities in dimension $\geq 7$ in general, locally modeled on stable and area-minimizing cones in the Euclidean spaces. In this paper, we present different aspects of how these…
