We consider the Dirichlet problem for quasilinear elliptic equations with Musielak-Orlicz (p,q)-growth and non-logarithmic conditions on the coefficients. A sufficient Wiener-type condition for the regularity of a boundary point is…
An inverse problem of finding an obstacle and the boundary condition on its surface from the fixed-energy scattering data is studied. A new method is developed for a proof of the uniqueness results. The method does not use the discreteness…
In this paper we establish the $C^{1,\beta}$ regularity of the regular part of the free boundary in the Signorini problem for elliptic operators with variable Lipschitz coefficients. This work is a continuation of the recent paper [GSVG14],…
We prove a monotonicity identity for compact surfaces with free boundaries inside the boundary of unit ball in $\mathbb R^n$ that have square integrable mean curvature. As one consequence we obtain a Li-Yau type inequality in this setting,…
We prove Lipschitz continuity results for solutions to a class of obstacle problems under standard growth conditions of $p$-type, $p \geq 2$. The main novelty is the use of a linearization technique going back to [28] in order to interpret…
Using the electrostatic potential $u$ due to a uniformly charged body $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq 3$, we introduce a family of monotone quantities associated with the level set flow of $u$. The derived monotonicity formulas are…

We study the time-harmonic Maxwell equations on bounded Lipschitz domains with an impedance boundary condition. The impedance coefficient can be matrix valued such that, in particular, a polarization dependent impedance is modeled. We…
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…
The article studies the reiterated homogenization of linear elliptic variational inequalities arising in problems with unilateral constrains. We assume that the coefficients of the equations satisfy and abstract hypothesis covering on each…
Motivated and inspired by the recent work of Colding [5] and Colding-Minicozzi [6] we derive several families of monotonicity formulas for manifolds with nonnegative Bakry-Emery Ricci curvature, extending the formulas in [5, 6].
By applying a high-dimensional parabolic-to-elliptic transformation, we establish a monotonicity formula for the extension problem of the fractional parabolic semilinear equation $(\partial_t -\Delta)^s u = |u|^{p-1}u$, where $0<s<1$. This…
The thin obstacle problem or $n$-dimensional Signorini problem is a classical variational problem arising in several applications, starting with its first introduction in elasticity theory. The vast literature concerns mostly quadratic…
We consider the case of scattering by several obstacles in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for $d \geq 2$. We establish a relative trace formula for Neumann and transmission boundary conditions analogous to the one obtained in arXiv:2002.07291 for Dirichlet…
We perform a complete analysis of the limiting behaviour of a class of quasilinear problems with Dirichlet boundary data g. We show that the Lipschitz constant of g plays a role in controlling the Gamma-convergence of the natural energies.…
We prove existence, uniqueness and optimal regularity of solutions to the stationary obstacle problem defined by the fractional Laplacian operator with drift, in the subcritical regime. We localize our problem by considering a suitable…
We investigate the regularity of the free boundary for a general class of two-phase free boundary problems with non-zero right hand side. We prove that Lipschitz or flat free boundaries are $C^{1,\gamma}$. In particular, viscosity solutions…
