We develop weak and strong maximum principles for boundary-degenerate, linear, parabolic, second-order partial differential operators, $Lu := -u_t-\tr(aD^2u)-\langle b, Du\rangle + cu$, with \emph{partial} Dirichlet boundary conditions. The…
We prove the existence and $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity of solutions to nonlocal fully nonlinear elliptic equations with gradient constraints. We do not assume any regularity about the constraints; so the constraints need not be $C^1$ or…
We study a general class of elliptic free boundary problems equipped with a Dirichlet boundary condition. Our primary result establishes an optimal $C^{1,1}$-regularity estimate for $L^p$-strong solutions at points where the free and fixed…
We propose an operator preconditioner for general elliptic pseudodifferential equations in a domain $\Omega$, where $\Omega$ is either in $\mathbb{R}^n$ or in a Riemannian manifold. For linear systems of equations arising from low-order…

We study elliptic and parabolic problems governed by the singular elliptic operators $$ y^{\alpha}\left(D_{yy}+\frac{c}{y}D_y\right)-V(y),\qquad\alpha \in\mathbb R $$ in $\mathbb R_+$, where $V$ is a potential having non-negative real part.
We develop the complete free boundary analysis for solutions to classical obstacle problems related to nondegenerate nonlinear variational energies. The key tools are optimal $C^{1,1}$ regularity, which we review more generally for…

We obtain sharp local $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity of solutions for singular obstacle problems, Euler-Lagrange equation of which is given by $$ \Delta_p u=\gamma(u-\varphi)^{\gamma-1}\,\text{ in }\,\{u>\varphi\}, $$ for $0<\gamma<1$ and…
We study the generation property for a fourth order operator in divergence or in non divergence form with suitable Neumann boundary conditions. As a consequence we obtain the well posedness for the parabolic equations governed by these…
In this paper we consider an obstacle problem for a generalization of the p-elastic energy among graphical curves with fixed ends. Taking into account that the Euler--Lagrange equation has a degeneracy, we address the question whether…
