Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^{N+1}$ with a connected $C^{2,\epsilon}$ ($\epsilon\in(0,1)$) boundary. We show that, if the following overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation} -\Delta u=\alpha u\,\,…
This paper addresses the fundamental question of when convex sets remain disjoint after random projection. We provide an analysis using ideas from high-dimensional convex geometry. For ellipsoids, we provide a bound in terms of the distance…
A unified construction of canonical $H^m$-nonconforming finite elements is developed for $n$-dimensional simplices for any $m, n \geq 1$. Consistency with the Morley-Wang-Xu elements [Math. Comp. 82 (2013), pp. 25-43] is maintained when $m…
We consider a nonautonomous semilinear elliptic problem where the power nonlinearity is multiplied by a discontinuous coefficient that equals one inside a bounded open set $\Omega$ and it equals minus one in its complement. In the slightly…
We prove that every open subset of a euclidean building is a finite dimensional absolute neighborhood retract. This implies in particular that such a set has the homotopy type of a finite dimensional simplicial complex. We also include a…
We prove, via transfinite recursion, the existence, inside any linearly ordered set of appropriate regular cardinality $\lambda$, of a particular kind of well-ordered subsets characterized by the property of $\lambda$-fullness. Let $H$ be a…
We study existence and nonexistence of strictly positive solutions for the elliptic problems of the form $Lu=m\left( x\right) u^{p}$ in a bounded open interval, with zero boundary conditions, where $L$ is a strongly uniformly elliptic…
The Illumination Problem may be phrased as the problem of covering a convex body in Euclidean $n$-space by a minimum number of translates of its interior. By a probabilistic argument, we show that, arbitrarily close to the Euclidean ball,…
This paper deals with the obstacle problem for the infinity Laplacian. The main results are a characterization of the solution through comparison with cones that lie above the obstacle and the sharp $C^{1,1/3}$--regularity at the free…
A point set $M$ in Euclidean plane is called an integral point set in semi-general position if all the distances between the elements of $M$ are integers, and $M$ does not contain collinear triples. We improve the lower bound for diameter…
In this note we establish the existence of a new type of rigidity of symplectic embeddings coming from obligatory intersections with symplectic planes. More precisely, we prove that if a Euclidean ball is symplectically embedded in the…
We study certain obstacle type problems involving standard and nonlocal minimal surfaces. We obtain optimal regularity of the solution and a characterization of the free boundary.
In this paper we analyze the extension of the classical smallest enclosing disk problem to the case of the location of a polyellipsoid to fully cover a set of demand points in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove that the problem is polynomially…
The classical Birkhoff conjecture claims that the boundary of a strictly convex integrable billiard table is necessarily an ellipse (or a circle as a special case). In this article we prove a complete local version of this conjecture: a…
We prove existence and regularity of solutions to degenerate and singular elliptic free boundary problems, where the volume of the positivity set of the solution is prescribed.
$ $We study solutions of difference equations in the rings of sequences and, more generally, solutions of equations with a monoid action in the ring of sequences indexed by the monoid. This framework includes, for example, difference…
The characterization problem of the existence of an unknown obstacle behind a known obstacle is considered by using a singe observed wave at a place where the wave is generated. The unknown obstacle is invisible from the place by using…
In this paper we prove the probabilistic continuous complexity conjecture. In continuous complexity theory, this states that the complexity of solving a continuous problem with probability approaching 1 converges (in this limit) to the…
We study a semilinear elliptic problem with a singular nonlinear term of the type $g(u)=-u^{-1}$, using a variational approach. Note that the minus sign is important since the corresponding term in the Euler-Lagrange functional is concave.…
In this paper we study a mass-constrained free boundary problem modeling cell polarization, in the regime where the mass is small. In the generic case of a signal with nondegenerate maxima, we prove that the solution converges locally to a…
