We consider a one-phase free boundary problem involving fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$, $0<s<1$. D. De Silva, O. Savin, and Y. Sire proved that the flat boundaries are $C^{1,\alpha}$. We raise the regularity to $C^{\infty}$, extending…

We study the higher regularity in nonlocal free boundary problems posed for general integro-differential operators of order $2s$. Our main result is for the nonlocal one-phase (Bernoulli) problem, for which we establish that $C^{2,\alpha}$…

We study the free boundary of solutions to the parabolic obstacle problem with fully nonlinear diffusion. We show that the free boundary splits into a regular and a singular part: near regular points the free boundary is $C^\infty$ in space…

We consider a one-phase free boundary problem involving a fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^\alpha$, $0<\alpha <1,$ and we prove that ``flat free boundaries" are $C^{1,\gamma}$. We thus extend the known result for the case $\alpha=1/2.$
