We consider an overdetermined problem for the Finsler Laplacian in the exterior of a convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, establishing a symmetry result for the anisotropic capacitary potential. Our result extends the one of W. Reichel [Arch.…

This paper investigates the geometric constraints imposed on a domain by overdetermined problems for partial differential equations. Serrin's symmetry results are extended to overdetermined problems with potentially degenerate ellipticity…

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…

We characterize the Wulff shape of an anisotropic norm in terms of solutions to overdetermined problems for the Finsler $p$-capacity of a convex set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, with $1<p<N$. In particular we show that if the Finsler…

We prove a rigidity result for the anisotropic Laplacian. More precisely, the domain of the problem is bounded by an unknown surface supporting a Dirichlet condition together with a Neumann-type condition which is not translation-invariant.…

In this survey we consider the classical overdetermined problem which was studied by Serrin in 1971. The original proof relies on Alexandrov's moving plane method, maximum principles, and a refinement of Hopf's boundary point Lemma. Since…

For a function $f$ which foliates a one-sided neighbourhood of a closed hypersurface $M$, we give an estimate of the distance of $M$ to a Wulff shape in terms of the $L^{p}$-norm of the traceless $F$-Hessian of $f$, where $F$ is the support…
