We prove that the existence of a solution to a fully nonlinear elliptic equation in a bounded domain $\Omega$ with an overdetermined boundary condition prescribing both Dirichlet and Neumann constant data forces the domain $\Omega$ to be a…

It has recently been established byWang and Xia [WX] that local minimizers of perimeter within a ball subject to a volume constraint must be spherical caps or planes through the origin. This verifies a conjecture of the authors and is in…

We show that a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ admitting partial pseudoconvex exhaustion remains partial pseudoconvex. The main ingredient of the proof is based on a new characterization of hyper-$q$-convex domains. Furthermore, we…

We investigate the overdetermined torsion problem $\begin{cases} -\Delta u = 1 & \text{in}\ \Omega\\ u=0 & \text{on}\ \partial \Omega\\ \frac{\partial u}{\partial \nu}=\text{const.} & \text{on}\ \partial \Omega, \end{cases}$ where $\Omega$…

In this paper we analyze the capacitary potential due to a charged body in order to deduce sharp analytic and geometric inequalities, whose equality cases are saturated by domains with spherical symmetry. In particular, for a regular…

This paper considers overdetermined boundary problems. Firstly, we give a proof to the Payne-Schaefer conjecture about an overdetermined problem of sixth order in the two dimensional case and under an additional condition for the case of…

Considering a finite intersection of balls and a finite union of other balls in an Euclidean space, we propose an exact method to test whether the intersection is covered by the union. We reformulate this problem into quadratic programming…

Given a bounded regular domain $\omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{N-1}$ and the half-cylinder $\Sigma = \omega \times (0,+\infty)$, we consider the relative overdetermined torsion problem in $\Sigma$, i.e. \[\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \Delta…
