A horizontal $N$-dimensional plane, having a diffusion of its own, exchanges with the lower half space. There, a reaction-diffusion process, modelled by a free boundary problem, takes place. We wish to understand whether, and how, the free…
We study a parabolic free boundary problem, arising from a model for the propagation of equi-diffusional premixed flames with high activation energy. If an initial data is compactly supported, then the solution vanishes in a finite time,…

We consider Anzellotti-type almost minimizers for the thin obstacle (or Signorini) problem with zero thin obstacle and establish their $C^{1,\beta}$ regularity on the either side of the thin manifold, the optimal growth away from the free…
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…
In this work, we show how to obtain a free boundary problem as the limit of a fully non linear elliptic system of equations that models population segregation (Gause-Lotka-Volterra type). We study the regularity of the solutions. In…
We discuss the asymptotic behavior of positive solutions of the quasilinear elliptic problem $-\Delta_p u=a u^{p-1}-b(x) u^q$, $u|_{\partial \Omega}=0$ as $q \to p-1+0$ and as $q \to \infty$ via a scale argument. Here $\Delta_p$ is the…
