In this note, we study an obstacle problem for the elastic flow. We prove the local-in-time existence of weak solutions and discuss their relation to classical solutions when additional regularity is obtained. Related results concerning…

We introduce the multivariate analogue of the well known inequality $1+x\leq \mathrm{e}^x$, for an abstract non negative real number $x$. The result emerges from the study of the blow up time of certain solutions of the Cauchy problem for a…

We study systems of nonlinear ordinary differential equations where the dominant term, with respect to large spatial variables, causes blow-ups and is positively homogeneous of a degree $1+\alpha$ for some $\alpha>0$. We prove that the…

We consider the 1D cubic NLS on $\mathbb R$ and prove a blow-up result for functions that are of borderline regularity, i.e. $H^s$ for any $s<-\frac 12$ for the Sobolev scale and $\mathcal F L^\infty$ for the Fourier-Lebesgue scale. This is…

This paper investigates the regularity of solutions and structural properties of the free boundary for a class of fourth-order elliptic problems with Neumann-type boundary conditions. The singular and degenerate elliptic operators studied…

We determine the asymptotic behaviour of (bilateral) obstacle problems for fractional energies in rather general aperiodic settings via Gamma-convergence arguments. As further developments we consider obstacles with random sizes and shapes…

We study the homogenization of obstacle problems in Orlicz-Sobolev spaces for a wide class of monotone operators (possibly degenerate or singular) of the $p(\cdot)$-Laplacian type. Our approach is based on the Lewy-Stampacchia inequalities,…

We study the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of weak solutions to a class of obstacle problems, where the obstacle condition can be imposed on a subset of the domain. In particular, we establish the optimal H\"older regularity for…

This paper concerns the study of the incompressible Euler equations with variable density, in the case of space dimension $d=2$. Contrarily to their homogeneous (constant density) counterpart, those equations are not known to be well-posed…

We construct and analyze solutions to a regularized homogeneous $p$-harmonic map flow equation for general $p \geq 2$. The homogeneous version of the problem is new and features a monotonicity formula extending the one found by Struwe for…

This note is devoted to continuity results of the time derivative of the solution to the one-dimensional parabolic obstacle problem with variable coefficients. It applies to the smooth fit principle in numerical analysis and in financial…

We give sufficient conditions on the initial data so that a semilinear wave inequality blows-up in finite time. Our method is based on the study of an associated second order differential inequality. The same method is applied to some…

We consider a one-phase free boundary problem of the minimizer of the energy \[ J_{\gamma}(u)=\frac{1}{2}\int_{(B_1^{n+1})^+}{y^{1-2s}|\nabla u(x,y)|^2dxdy}+\int_{B_1^{n}\times \{y=0\}}{u^{\gamma}dx}, \] with constants $0<s,\gamma<1$. It is…

In Kenig and Toro's two-phase free boundary problem, one studies how the regularity of the Radon-Nikodym derivative $h= d\omega^-/d\omega^+$ of harmonic measures on complementary NTA domains controls the geometry of their common boundary.…

For differential inequalities of the form $$ \sum_{|\alpha| = m} (- 1)^m \partial^\alpha a_\alpha (x, u) \ge b (x) |u|^\lambda \quad \mbox{in } {\mathbb R}^n, \: n \ge 1, $$ where $a_\alpha$ and $b$ are some functions, we obtain conditions…

For a given domain $\Omega \subset \Bbb{R}^n$, we consider the variational problem of minimizing the $L^1$-norm of the gradient on $\Omega$ of a function $u$ with prescribed continuous boundary values and satisfying a continuous lower…

We are concerned with the following class of equations with exponential nonlinearities: $$ \Delta u+h_1e^u-h_2e^{-2u}=0 \qquad \mbox{in } B_1\subset\mathbb{R}^2, $$ which is related to the Tzitz\'eica equation. Here $h_1, h_2$ are two…

Consider a class of non-homogenous ultraparabolic differential equations with drift terms or lower order terms arising from some physical models, and we prove that weak solutions are H\"{o}lder continuous, which also generalizes the classic…

We prove the monotonicity of positive solutions to the problem $-\Delta u = f(u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^N_+ := \{(x',x_N)\in\mathbb{R}^N \mid x_N>0 \}$ under zero Dirichlet boundary condition with a possible singular nonlinearity $f$. In some…

We study the regularity of the interface between the disjoint supports of a pair of nonnegative subharmonic functions. The portion of the interface where the Alt-Caffarelli-Friedman (ACF) monotonicity formula is asymptotically positive…
