We establish generic regularity results of free boundaries for solutions of the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$. We prove that, for almost every obstacle, the free boundary contains only regular points up to…

This paper studies the regularity of the free boundary for viscosity solutions to a parabolic Bernoulli-type free boundary problem with variable coefficients. The main result is that Lipschitz free boundaries are $C^1$ with a normal vector…

We study the free boundary in an unstable parabolic problem arising from a model in combustion. We consider the physical situation in which the heat advances and prove that the free boundary is a $C^{1,\alpha/2}$ hypersurface.

A new algorithm to determine the position of the crack (discontinuity set) of certain minimizers of Mumford-Shah functional in situations when a crack-tip occurs is introduced. The conformal mapping $w=\sqrt{z}$ in the complex plane is used…

A free boundary problem arising from the optimal reinforcement of a membrane or from the reduction of traffic congestion is considered; it is of the form $$\sup_{\int_D\theta\,dx=m}\ \inf_{u\in H^1_0(D)}\int_D\Big(\frac{1+\theta}{2}|\nabla…
