Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^2$ be a chord arc domain. We give a simple proof of the the following fact, which is commonly known to be true: a nontrivial harmonic function which vanishes continuously on a relatively open set of the boundary…

By virtue of barrier arguments we prove $C^\alpha$-regularity up to the boundary for the weak solutions of a non-local nonlinear problem driven by the fractional $p$-Laplacian operator. The equation is boundedly inhomogeneous and the…

We prove Harnack inequality and local regularity results for weak solutions of a quasilinear degenerate equation in divergence form under natural growth conditions. The degeneracy is given by a suitable power of a strong $A_\infty$ weight.…

We consider the $L^p$ Hardy inequality involving the distance to the boundary of a domain in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space with nonempty compact boundary. We extend the validity of known existence and non-existence results, as well as…

We discuss the optimal regularity and nondegeneracy of a free boundary problem related to the fractional Laplacian. This work is related to, but addresses a different problem from, recent work of Caffarelli, Roquejoffre, and Sire. A variant…

We study the higher regularity of free boundaries in obstacle problems for integro-differential operators with drift, like $(-\Delta)^s +b\cdot\nabla$, in the subcritical regime $s>\frac{1}{2}$. Our main result states that once the free…

We consider a one-phase free boundary problem involving a fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^\alpha$, $0<\alpha <1,$ and we prove that ``flat free boundaries" are $C^{1,\gamma}$. We thus extend the known result for the case $\alpha=1/2.$
