We prove the nondegeneracy condition for stable solutions to the one-phase free boundary problem. The proof is by a De Giorgi iteration, where we need the Sobolev inequality of Michael and Simon and, consequently, an integral estimate for…
We study a class of semilinear free boundary problems in which admissible functions $u$ have a topological constraint, or spanning condition, on their 1-level set. This constraint forces $\{u=1\}$, which is the free boundary, to behave like…
In this article, we show that for one-phase free boundary problems in noncollapsed limits of $n$-dimensional manifolds with two-sided Ricci curvature bounds, the Hausdorff dimension of the singular set of the free boundary can be bounded by…
A Bernoulli free boundary problem with geometrical constraints is studied. The domain $\Om$ is constrained to lie in the half space determined by $x_1\geq 0$ and its boundary to contain a segment of the hyperplane $\{x_1=0\}$ where…
We analyze strict positivity at the boundary for nonnegative solutions of Robin problems in general (non-smooth) domains, e.g. open sets with rectifiable topological boundaries having finite Hausdorff measure. This question was raised by…
We investigate the regularity of the free boundary for the Signorini problem in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. It is known that regular points are $(n-1)$-dimensional and $C^\infty$. However, even for $C^\infty$ obstacles $\varphi$, the set of…
We study the free boundary of the porous medium equation with nonlocal drifts in dimension one. Under the assumption that the initial data has super-quadratic growth at the free boundary, we show that the solution is smooth in space and…
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^N$, $N \geq 2$, be a smooth bounded domain. We consider a boundary value problem of the form $$-\Delta u = c_{\lambda}(x) u + \mu(x) |\nabla u|^2 + h(x), \quad u \in H^1_0(\Omega)\cap L^{\infty}(\Omega)$$ where…
In this paper, we study a free boundary problem, which arises from an optimal trading problem of a stock that is driven by a uncertain market status process. The free boundary problem is a variational inequality system of three functions…
In this paper, we continue the study local minimizers of a degenerate version of the Alt-Caffarelli functional. Specifically, we consider local minimizers of the functional $J_{Q}(u, \Omega):= \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|^2 +…
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…

We propose a method to determine the smoothness of sufficiently flat solutions of one phase Hele-Shaw problems. The novelty is the observation that under a flatness assumption the free boundary --represented by the hodograph transform of…
Let $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^2$ be a bounded domain on which Hardy's inequality holds. We prove that $[\exp(u^2)-1]/\delta^2\in L^1(\Omega)$ if $u\in H^1_0(\Omega)$, where $\delta$ denotes the distance to $\partial\Omega$. The…
