In the classical homogeneous one-phase Bernoulli-type problem, the free boundary consists of a "regular" part and a "singular" part, as Alt and Caffarelli have shown in their pioneer work (J. Reine Angew. Math., 325, 105-144, 1981) that…

This paper investigates the blow-up of solutions to scale-invariant semilinear wave equations featuring the damping term $\frac{\mu}{1+t} \partial_t u$, the mass term $\frac{\nu^2}{(1+t)^2} u$, and a time-derivative nonlinearity $|…
