We investigate the $C^{1+\alpha}$-regularity of solutions of parabolic equations $\partial_{t}v+H(v,Dv,D^{2}v,t,x)=0$. Our main result says that under rather general assumptions there exist $C$-viscosity and $L_{p}$-viscosity solutions…
This article deals with the variable coefficient thin obstacle problem in $n+1$ dimensions. We address the regular free boundary regularity, the behavior of the solution close to the free boundary and the optimal regularity of the solution…
We consider the Bernoulli one-phase free boundary problem in a domain $\Omega$ and show that the free boundary $F$ is $C^{1,1/2}$ regular in a neighborhood of the fixed boundary $\partial \Omega$. We achieve this by relating the behavior of…
We study the higher regularity in nonlocal free boundary problems posed for general integro-differential operators of order $2s$. Our main result is for the nonlocal one-phase (Bernoulli) problem, for which we establish that $C^{2,\alpha}$…
We prove Lipschitz continuity of solutions to a class of rather general two-phase anisotropic free boundary problems in 2D and we classify global solutions. As a consequence, we obtain $C^{2,1}$ regularity of solutions to the Bellman…
For a vectorial Bernoulli-type free boundary problem, with no sign assumption on the components, we prove that flatness of the free boundary implies $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity, as well-known in the scalar case \cite{AC,C2}. While in…
We study a class of two-phase inhomogeneous free boundary problems governed by elliptic equations in divergence form. In particular we prove that Lipschitz or flat free boundaries are $C^{1,\gamma}$. Our results apply to the classical…
Consider the parabolic free boundary problem $$ \Delta u - \partial_t u = 0 \textrm{in} \{u>0\}, |\nabla u|=1 \textrm{on} \partial\{u>0\} . $$ For a realistic class of solutions, containing for example {\em all} limits of the singular…
We prove that boundary value problems for fully nonlinear second-order parabolic equations admit $L_{p}$-viscosity solutions, which are in $C^{1+\alpha}$ for an $\alpha\in(0,1)$. The equations have a special structure that the "main" part…
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.
