We study the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of weak solutions to a class of obstacle problems, where the obstacle condition can be imposed on a subset of the domain. In particular, we establish the optimal H\"older regularity for…
In this work, we consider optimality conditions of an optimal control problem governed by an obstacle problem. Here, we focus on introducing a, matrix valued, control variable as the coefficients of the obstacle problem. As it is well…
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 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…
The Convex Envelope of a given function was recently characterized as the solution of a fully nonlinear Partial Differential Equation (PDE). In this article we study a modified problem: the Dirichlet problem for the underlying PDE. The main…
We prove some C^{1,\alpha} regularity in some gradient constraint problem and application to Torsion problem and micromagnetic problem and variational inequality.
We use a characterization of the fractional Laplacian as a Dirichlet to Neumann operator for an appropriate differential equation to study its obstacle problem. We write an equivalent characterization as a thin obstacle problem. In this way…
In this paper we show boundary monotonicity formulae for rectifiable varifolds having a $C^{1,\alpha}$ "boundary". In particular, we show that the area ratios of balls centered at this "boundary'' satisfy a nice monotonicity formula,…
We prove global Lipschitz regularity for a wide class of convex variational integrals among all functions in $W^{1,1}$ with prescribed (sufficiently regular) boundary values, which are not assumed to satisfy any geometrical constraint (as…
We establish the optimal $C_{H}^{1,1}$ interior regularity of solutions to \[ \Delta_{H}u=f\chi_{\{u\ne0\}}, \] where $\Delta_{H}$ denotes the sub-Laplacian operator in a stratified group. We assume the weakest regularity condition on $f$,…
In this manuscript we deal with regularity issues and the asymptotic behaviour (as $p \to \infty$) of solutions for elliptic free boundary problems of $p-$Laplacian type ($2 \leq p< \infty$): \begin{equation*} -\Delta_p u(x) +…
Energy-minimizing constraint maps are a natural extension of the obstacle problem within a vectorial framework. Due to inherent topological constraints, these maps manifest a diverse structure that includes singularities similar to harmonic…
A quantitative regularity theory is developed for weak solutions to the parabolic system $$ \partial_t u-\mathrm{div}\,{\boldsymbol{\mathsf A}}(x,t,Du)=0 \quad\text{in }E_T\subset \mathbb{R}^N\times\mathbb{R}, $$ which features the…
We introduce a notion of non-local almost minimal boundaries similar to that introduced by Almgren in geometric measure theory. Extending methods developed recently for non-local minimal surfaces we prove that flat non-local almost minimal…
We present some new regularity criteria for ``suitable weak solutions'' of the Navier-Stokes equations near the boundary in dimension three. We prove that suitable weak solutions are H\"older continuous up to the boundary provided that the…
We study the interaction of an incompressible fluid in two dimensions with an elastic structure yielding the moving boundary of the physical domain. The displacement of the structure is described by a linear viscoelastic beam equation. Our…
We study the singular part of the free boundary in the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian, \ $\min\bigl\{(-\Delta)^su,\,u-\varphi\bigr\}=0$ in $\mathbb R^n$, for general obstacles $\varphi$. Our main result establishes the…
We prove partial regularity of suitable weak solutions to the Navier--Stokes equations at the boundary in irregular domains. In particular, we provide a criterion which yields continuity of the velocity field in a boundary point and obtain…
For a one-phase free boundary problem involving a fractional Laplacian, we prove that "flat free boundaries" are $C^{1,\alpha}$. We recover the regularity results of Caffarelli for viscosity solutions of the classical Bernoulli-type free…
We deal with the obstacle problem for the porous medium equation in the slow diffusion regime $m>1$. Our main interest is to treat fairly irregular obstacles assuming only boundedness and lower semicontinuity. In particular, the considered…
