We study solutions of parabolic equations with a discontinuous hysteresis operator, described by a free interface boundary. It is established that for spatially transverse initial data from the space $W^{2-2/q}_q$ with $q > 3$, there exists…

Free boundary problems are those described by PDEs that exhibit a priori unknown (free) interfaces or boundaries. These problems appear in Physics, Probability, Biology, Finance, or Industry, and the study of solutions and free boundaries…
We study fully nonlinear singularly perturbed parabolic equations and their limits. We show that solutions are uniformly Lipschitz continuous in space and H\"{o}lder continuous in time. For the limiting free boundary problem, we analyse the…
We study the free boundary in an unstable parabolic problem arising from a model in combustion. We consider the physical situation in which the heat advances and prove that the free boundary is a $C^{1,\alpha/2}$ hypersurface.
In this volume a theory for models of transport in the presence of a free boundary is developed. Macroscopic laws of transport are described by PDEs. When the system is open, there are several mechanisms to couple the system with the…
The aim of this paper is first to give necessary and sufficient condition of existence (of free boundaries) for both Laplacian and bi-Laplacian operators in the case where the overdetermined condition is not constant. second, by using some…
A class of diffusion driven Free Boundary Problems is considered which is characterized by the initial onset of a phase and by an explicit kinematic condition for the evolution of the free boundary. By a domain fixing change of variables it…
In a wide class of the so called Obstacle Problems of parabolic type it is shown how to improve the optimal regularity of the solution and as a consequence how to obtain space-time regularity of the corresponding free boundary.
We study linear and quasilinear Venttsel initial-boundary value problems for parabolic operators with discontinuous coefficients. On the basis of the a priori estimates obtained, strong solvability in composite Sobolev spaces is proved.
We consider an elliptic-parabolic free boundary problem that models the fluid flow through a partially saturated porous medium. The free boundary arises as the interface separating the saturated and unsaturated regions. Our main goal is to…
We prove the well posedness of a class of non linear and non local mixed hyperbolic-parabolic systems in bounded domains, with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In view of control problems, stability estimates on the dependence of solutions on…

Bernoulli's free boundary problem is an overdetermined problem in which one seeks an annular domain such that the capacitary potential satisfies an extra boundary condition. There exist two different types of solutions called elliptic and…
In this expository note, we illustrate phenomena and conjectures about boundaries of hyperbolic groups by considering the special cases of certain amalgams of hyperbolic groups. While doing so, we describe fundamental results on hyperbolic…
The work deals with a study of a nonlinear parabolic equation with hysteresis, containing a nonlinear monotone operator in the diffusion term. The well-posedness of the model equation is addressed by using an implicit time discretization…
We consider equations of the form $\Delta u +\lambda^2 V(x)e^{\,u}=\rho$ in various two dimensional settings. We assume that $V>0$ is a given function, $\lambda>0$ is a small parameter and $\rho=\mathcal O(1)$ or $\rho\to +\infty$ as…
In this paper we prove the continuity of stable subspaces associated to parabolic-hyperbolic boundary value problems, for limiting values of parameters. The analysis is based on the construction performed in a previous paper of Kreiss' type…
We study complex systems arising, in particular, in population dynamics, developmental biology, and bacterial metabolic processes, in which each individual element obeys a relatively simple hysteresis law (a non-ideal relay). Assuming that…
In this article we establish the exact growth of the solution to the singular quasilinear p-parabolic free boundary problem in non-divergence form near the free boundary from which follows its porosity.
