Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a set with finite Lebesgue measure such that, for a fixed radius $r>0$, the Lebesgue measure of $\Omega \cap B_r (x)$ is equal to a positive constant when $x$ varies in the essential boundary of…

We present sufficient conditions so that a conformal map between planar domains whose boundary components are Jordan curves or points has a continuous or homeomorphic extension to the closures of the domains. Our conditions involve the…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, convex, centrally symmetric in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with a connected $C^{2,\epsilon}$ ($\epsilon\in(0,1)$) boundary. We show that, if the following overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation} -\Delta u=\alpha…

In this paper, we study Hardy's inequality in a limiting case: $$ \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u |^N dx \ge C_N(\Omega) \int_{\Omega} \frac{|u(x)|^N}{|x|^N \left(\log \frac{R}{|x|} \right)^N} dx $$ for functions $u \in W^{1,N}_0(\Omega)$, where…

We get a new multiplicity result for gradient systems. Here is a very particular corollary: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) be a smooth bounded domain and let $\Phi:{\bf R}^2\to {\bf R}$ be a $C^1$ function, with $\Phi(0,0)=0$,…

In this paper we prove Modica type estimates for the following overdetermined $p$-Laplace problem \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} \mathrm{div} \left(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\right)+f(u) =0& \mbox{in $\Omega$, } u>0 &\mbox{in $\Omega$, } u=0…

Alexandrov's estimate states that if $\Omega$ is a bounded open convex domain in ${\mathbb R}^n$ and $u:\bar \Omega\to {\mathbb R}$ is a convex solution of the Monge-Ampere equation $\det D^2 u = f$ that vanishes on $\partial \Omega$, then…

We consider conformal homeomorphisms $\varphi$ of generalized Jordan domains $U$ onto planar domains $\Omega$ %, possibly {\bf infinitely connected}, that satisfy both of the next two conditions: (1) at most countably many boundary…

We address the question of attainability of the best constant in the following Hardy-Sobolev inequality on a smooth domain $\Omega$ of \mathbb{R}^n: $$ \mu_s (\Omega) := \inf \{\int_{\Omega}| \nabla u|^2 dx; u \in {H_{1,0}^2(\Omega)}…

We consider the 2D incompressible Euler equation on a bounded simply connected domain $\Omega$. We give sufficient conditions on the domain $\Omega$ so that for all initial vorticity $\omega_0 \in L^{\infty}(\Omega)$ the weak solutions are…

We investigate the uniqueness of symmetric weak solutions to the stationary Navier-Stokes equation in a two-dimensional exterior domain $\Omega$. It is known that, under suitable symmetry condition on the domain and the data, the problem…

We study bounded domains $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^n$ whose Bergman metric is locally symmetric, i.e. its Riemannian curvature tensor is parallel with respect to the Levi-Civita connection. Following the strategy developed in…

This article is concerned with the unique continuation property of a forward differential inequality abstracted from parabolic equations proposed on a convex domain $\Omega$ prescribed with some regularity and growth conditions. Our result…

We consider stable solutions of a semilinear elliptic equation with homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. A classical result of Casten, Holland [20] and Matano [44] states that all stable solutions are constant in convex bounded domains.…

In a matter-filled spacetime, perhaps with positive cosmological constant, a stable marginally outer trapped 2-sphere must satisfy a certain area inequality. Namely, as discussed in the paper, its area must be bounded above by $4\pi/c$,…

Consider $J(\Omega):= \|\nabla u_\Omega\|_\infty/\sqrt{|\Omega|} $ and $J_P(\Omega):= \|\nabla u_\Omega\|_\infty/P(\Omega) $, where $\Omega$ is a planar convex domain, $u_\Omega$ is the torsion function, $P(\Omega)$ is the perimeter of…

We consider a mixed boundary value problem in a domain $\Omega$ contained in a half-ball $B_+$ and having a portion $\bar{T}$ of its boundary in common with the curved part of $\partial B_+$. The problem has to do with some sort of…

If on a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ there is a nonconstant Neumann eigenfunction $u$ that is locally constant on the boundary, must $\Omega$ be a disk or an annulus? This question can be understood as a weaker analog…

We prove some boundary rigidity results for the hemisphere under a lower bound for Ricci curvature. The main result can be viewed as the Ricci version of a conjecture of Min-Oo.
