We study the boundary behaviour of solutions to second order parabolic linear equations in moving domains. Our main result is a higher order boundary Harnack inequality in $C^1$ and $C^{k,\alpha}$ domains, providing that the quotient of two…
We show that the quotient of two caloric functions which vanish on a portion of the lateral boundary of a $H^{k+ \alpha}$ domain is $H^{k+ \alpha}$ up to the boundary for $k \geq 2$. In the case $k=1$, we show that the quotient is in…
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 prove the $C^{2,\alpha}$ regularity of the free boundary in the Signorini problem with variable coefficients. We use a $C^{1,\alpha}$ boundary Harnack inequality in slit domain. The key method is to study a non-standard degenerate…
We consider boundary Harnack inequalities for regional fractional Laplacian which are generators of censored stable-like processes on G taking \kappa(x,y)/|x-y|^{n+\alpha}dxdy, x,y\in G as the jumping measure. When G is a C^{1,\beta-1} open…
We prove an uniform boundary Harnack inequality for nonnegative functions harmonic with respect to $\alpha$-stable process on the Sierpi{\'n}ski triangle, where $\alpha \in (0, 1)$. Our result requires no regularity assumptions on the…
Let $u$ be a harmonic function in a $C^1$ domain $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, which vanishes on an open subset of the boundary. In this note we study its critical set $\{x \in \overline{D}: \nabla u(x) = 0 \}$. When $D$ is a $C^{1,\alpha}$…
We provide a higher order boundary Harnack inequality for harmonic functions in slit domains. As a corollary we obtain the $C^\infty$ regularity of the free boundary in the Signorini problem near non-degenerate points.
We give a short and self-contained proof of the Boundary Harnack inequality for a class of domains satisfying some geometric conditions given in terms of a state function that behaves as the distance function to the boundary, is subharmonic…
We prove a uniform boundary Harnack inequality for nonnegative harmonic functions of the fractional Laplacian on arbitrary open set $D$. This yields a unique representation of such functions as integrals against measures on $D^c\cup…
What can be said about the domain $\Om$ in $\bR^n$ for which its Green's function $G(z)$ satisfies $G(z)\asymp \dist (z, \pd\Om)^\delta$? What can we say about $\Om$ if the Boundary Harnack Principle holds in the form $u/v=\text{real…
We prove the stronger version of Harnack's inequality for positive harmonic functions defined on the unit disc.
In this paper, we study the $(s, C(s))$-Harnack inequality in a domain $G\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ for $s\in(0,1)$ and $C(s)\geq1$ and present a series of inequalities related to $(s, C(s))$-Harnack functions and the Harnack metric. We also…
We study the ratio of harmonic functions $u,v$, which have the same zero set $Z$ in the unit ball $B\subset \mathbb{R}^n$. The ratio $f=u/v$ can be extended to a real analytic nowhere vanishing function in $B$. We prove the Harnack…
We study the boundary behavior of nonnegative p-harmonic functions which vanish on a portion of the boundary of a domain in the Heisenberg group H^n. Our main results are: 1) An estimate from above which shows that, under suitable geometric…
We show that the quotient of two caloric functions which vanish on a portion of an $H^{k+ \alpha}$ regular slit is $H^{k+ \alpha}$ at the slit, for $k \geq 2$. In the case $k=1$, we show that the quotient is in $H^{1+\alpha}$ if the slit is…
We develop a geometric framework for Hardy's inequality on a bounded domain when the functions do vanish only on a closed portion of the boundary.
We prove $C^{2,\alpha}$ regularity of sufficiently flat free boundaries, for the thin one-phase problem in which the free boundary occurs on a lower dimensional subspace. This problem appears also as a model of a one-phase free boundary…
We establish sharp boundary regularity estimates in $C^1$ and $C^{1,\alpha}$ domains for nonlocal problems of the form $Lu=f$ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ in $\Omega^c$. Here, $L$ is a nonlocal elliptic operator of order $2s$, with $s\in(0,1)$.…
We investigate properties of ($\alpha,\beta$)-harmonic functions. First, we discuss the coefficient estimates for ($\alpha,\beta$)-harmonic functions. In particular, we obtain Heinz's inequality for ($\alpha,\beta$)-harmonic functions,…
