We consider a one-phase Bernoulli free boundary problem in a container $D$ - a smooth open subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$ - under the condition that on the fixed boundary $\partial D$ the normal derivative of the solutions is prescribed. We study…

Consider the parabolic free boundary problem $$ \Delta u - \partial_t u = 0 \textrm{in} \{u>0\}, |\nabla u|=1 \textrm{on} \partial\{u>0\} . $$ For a realistic class of solutions, containing for example {\em all} limits of the singular…

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…

For a vectorial Bernoulli-type free boundary problem, with no sign assumption on the components, we prove that flatness of the free boundary implies $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity, as well-known in the scalar case \cite{AC,C2}. While in…

In this paper we study the two-phase Bernoulli type free boundary problem arising from the minimization of the functional $$ J(u):=\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^p +\lambda_+^p\,\chi_{\{u>0\}} +\lambda_-^p\,\chi_{\{u\le 0\}}, \quad 1<p<\infty. $$…
