For the parabolic obstacle-problem-like equation $$\Delta u - \partial_t u = \lambda_+ \chi_{\{u>0\}} - \lambda_- \chi_{\{u<0\}} ,$$ where $\lambda_+$ and $\lambda_-$ are positive Lipschitz functions, we prove in arbitrary finite dimension…
We show that any minimizer of the well-known ACF functional (for the $p$-Laplacian) is a viscosity solution. This allows us to establish a uniform flatness decay at the two-phase free boundary points to improve the flatness, that boils down…
We study the parabolic obstacle problem $$\lap u-u_t=f\chi_{\{u>0\}}, \quad u\geq 0,\quad f\in L^p \quad \mbox{with}\quad f(0)=1$$ and obtain two monotonicity formulae, one that applies for general free boundary points and one for singular…
This paper investigates a class of $p$-obstacle problems with subcritical exponents having the form \begin{align} \mathrm{div}\left( a(x)|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\right) =m_1\chi_{\{u>0\}}-m_2u^{\lambda-1}\chi_{\{u>0\}} \ \text{in}\…
This article deals with the variable coefficient thin obstacle problem in $n+1$ dimensions. We address the regular free boundary regularity, the behavior of the solution close to the free boundary and the optimal regularity of the solution…
In this work we establish the optimal regularity for solutions to the fully nonlinear thin obstacle problem. In particular, we show the existence of an optimal exponent $\alpha_F$ such that $u$ is $C^{1,\alpha_F}$ on either side of the…
We characterise regular boundary points of the parabolic $p$-Laplacian in terms of a family of barriers, both when $p>2$ and $1<p<2$. Due to the fact that $p\not=2$, it turns out that one can multiply the $p$-Laplace operator by a positive…
In this article, we investigate the H\"{o}lder regularity of the fractional $p$-Laplace equation of the form $(-\Delta_p)^s u=f$ where $p>1, s\in (0, 1)$ and $f\in L^\infty_{\rm loc}(\Omega)$. Specifically, we prove that $u\in C^{0,…
We obtain the regularity of solutions in Sobolev spaces for the mixed Dirichlet-conormal problem for parabolic operators in cylindrical domains with time-dependent separations, which is the first of its kind. Assuming the boundary of the…
We present a probabilistic approach to the obstacle problem for for the $p$-Laplace operator. The solutions are approximated by running processes determined by tug-of-war games plus noise, and letting the step size go to zero, not unlike…
In this paper we prove existence and uniqueness of an entropy solution to the A-obstacle problem, for L^1 data. We also extend the Lewy-Stampacchia inequalities to the general framework of L^1 data, and show convergence and stability…
We consider the equation $-\Delta_p u=f(u)$ in a smooth bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^n $, where $\Delta_p$ is the $p$-Laplace operator. Explicit examples of unbounded stable energy solutions are known if $n\geq p+4p/(p-1)$. Instead, when…
We consider weak solutions to a class of Dirichlet boundary value problems invloving the $p$-Laplace operator, and prove that the second weak derivatives are in $L^{q}$ with $q$ as large as it is desirable, provided $p$ is sufficiently…
We prove the local Lipschitz continuity of viscosity solutions for two-phase free boundary problems for the $p$-Laplacian with non-zero right hand side, where $p\in (1,\infty)$. This is the optimal regularity for the problem. We also obtain…
We show that the solutions to the nonlocal obstacle problems for the nonlocal $-\Delta_p^s$ operator, when the fractional parameter $s\to\sigma$ for $0<\sigma\leq1$, converge to the solution of the corresponding obstacle problem for…
In this article we study solutions to the (interior) thin obstacle problem under low regularity assumptions on the coefficients, the obstacle and the underlying manifold. Combining the linearization method of Andersson \cite{An16} and the…
In this paper, we fully resolve the question of whether the Regularity problem for the parabolic PDE $-\partial_tu + \mbox{div}(A\nabla u)=0$ on a Lipschitz cylinder $\mathcal O\times\mathbb R$ is solvable for some $p\in (1,\infty)$ under…
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…
We consider the optimization problem of minimizing $\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^p dx$ with a constrain on the volume of $\{u>0\}$. We consider a penalization problem, and we prove that for small values of the penalization parameter, the…
In this paper, we consider the analogous of the obtacle problem in $H_0^1(\Omega)$, on the space $W^{1,p}_0(\Omega)$. We prove an existence and uniqueness of the result. In a second time, we define the optimal control problem associated.…
