We consider the solution of the torsion problem $-\Delta u=1$ in $\Omega$ and $u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$. Serrin's celebrated symmetry theorem states that, if the normal derivative $u_\nu$ is constant on $\partial \Omega$, then $\Omega$…

In 1971 J. Serrin proved that, given a smooth bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ and $u$ a positive solution of the problem: \begin{equation*} \begin{array}{ll} -\Delta u = f(u) &\mbox{in $\Omega$, } u =0 &\mbox{on…

In this note we construct smooth bounded domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^2$, other than disks, for which the overdetermined problem $$ \left\{ \begin{alignedat}{2} \Delta u + \lambda u &= 0 &\qquad& \text{ in } \Omega, \newline u &= b…

Serrin's symmetry theorem shows that the classical overdetermined torsion problem forces the domain to be a ball. Extending this rigidity statement to merely Lipschitz (and more generally rough) domains in the weak formulation has been a…

In a bounded domain $\Omega$, we consider a positive solution of the problem $\Delta u+f(u)=0$ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$, where $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ is a locally Lipschitz continuous function. Under sufficient conditions…
