We will show optimal regularity for minimizers of the Signorini problem for the Lame system. In particular if $\u=(u^1,u^2,u^3)\in W^{1,2}(B_1^+:\R^3)$ minimizes $$ J(\u)=\int_{B_1^+}|\nabla \u+\nabla^\bot \u|^2+\lambda\div(\u)^2 $$ in the…

We consider regularised quadratic optimal transport with subquadratic polynomial or entropic regularisation. In both cases, we prove interior Lipschitz-estimates on a transport-like map and interior gradient Lipschitz-estimates on the…

We consider weak solutions to a class of Dirichlet boundary value problems invloving the $p$-Laplace operator, and prove that the second weak derivatives are in $L^{q}$ with $q$ as large as it is desirable, provided $p$ is sufficiently…

In this article we prove that all boundary points of a minimal oriented hypersurface in a Riemannian manifold are regular, that is, in a neighborhood of any boundary point, the minimal surface is a $\mathcal{C}^{1, \frac14}$ submanifold…

In this paper, we study minimizers of the Chon\'e--Rochet variational problem in dimension two. We first establish global $C^1$ regularity on arbitrary bounded convex domains, and then prove global $C^{1,1}$ regularity on bounded strictly…

The free boundary for the Signorini problem in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is smooth outside of a degenerate set, which can have the same dimension ($n-1$) as the free boundary itself. In [FR21] it was shown that generically, the set where the free…

We consider the "thin one-phase" free boundary problem, associated to minimizing a weighted Dirichlet energy of the function in $\mathbb R^{n+1}_+$ plus the area of the positivity set of that function in $\mathbb R^n$. We establish full…

We prove local $C^{1,\alpha}$ estimates of solutions for the parallel refractor and reflector problems under local assumptions on the target set $\Sigma$, and no assumptions are made on the smoothness of the densities.

Given an exterior domain $\Omega$ with $C^{2,\alpha}$ boundary in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $n\geq3$, we obtain a $1$-parameter family $u_{\gamma}\in C^{\infty}\left(\Omega\right) $, $\left\vert \gamma\right\vert \leq\pi/2$, of solutions of the…

We adapt the method of Simon [JDG '93] to prove a $C^{1,\alpha}$-regularity theorem for minimal varifolds which resemble a cone $\bf{C}_0^2$ over an equiangular geodesic net. For varifold classes admitting a "no-hole" condition on the…

We show that any minimizer of the well-known ACF functional (for the $p$-Laplacian) is a viscosity solution. This allows us to establish a uniform flatness decay at the two-phase free boundary points to improve the flatness, that boils down…
