In an earlier paper the authors provided general conditions on a real codimension 2 submanifold $S\subset C^{n}$, $n\ge 3$, such that there exists a possibly singular Levi-flat hypersurface $M$ bounded by $S$. In this paper we consider the…
In this article we study functionals of the following type $$ \int_{\Omega} \Big ( \langle A(x,u)\nabla u, \nabla u\rangle + \Lambda (x,u) \Big )\,dx $$ here $A(x,u)= A_+(x)\chi_{\{u>0\}}+A_-(x) \chi _{\{u\leq 0\}}$ for some elliptic and…
We consider the Riemann Mapping Theorem in the case of a bounded simply connected and semianalytic domain. We show that the germ at 0 of the Riemann map (i.e. biholomorphic map) from the upper half plane to such a domain can be realized in…
In this article, we study domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{S}^2$ that support positive solutions of the overdetermined problem $$ \Delta u + f(u,|\nabla u|)=0 \quad \text{in } \Omega, $$ subject to the boundary conditions $u=0$ on…
We prove the (optimal) $W^{1,\infty}$-regularity of weak solutions to the equation $-\Delta u = Q \; \mathcal{H}^{n-1} \llcorner \Gamma$ in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions, where $\Gamma \subset…
Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a bounded domain that can be written as $\Omega=\bigcup_{t} \Omega_t$, where $\{\Omega_t\}_{t\in\Gamma}$ is a countable collection of domains with certain properties. In this work, we develop a technique…
Let $\Omega\subsetneq\mathbb R^{n+1}$ be open and let $\mu$ be some measure supported on $\partial\Omega$ such that $\mu(B(x,r))\leq C\,r^n$ for all $x\in\mathbb R^{n+1}$, $r>0$. We show that if the harmonic measure in $\Omega$ satisfies…
This paper is dedicated to the spectral optimization problem $$ \mathrm{min}\left\{\lambda_1^s(\Omega)+\cdots+\lambda_m^s(\Omega) + \Lambda \mathcal{L}_n(\Omega)\colon \Omega\subset D \mbox{ s-quasi-open}\right\} $$ where $\Lambda>0,…
For an open set $V\subset\mathbb{C}^n$, denote by $\mathscr{M}_{\alpha}(V)$ the family of $\alpha$-analytic functions that obey a boundary maximum modulus principle. We prove that, on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{C}^n$, with…
We construct nonnegative weak solutions to the singular parabolic free boundary problem \[ \partial_t u - \Delta u = - \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d} u} u_+^\gamma , \] where $\gamma \in (0,1]$, $u_+ := \max\{u,0\}$, and the term in the…
Let $\alpha\in(0,1)$, $\Omega$ be a bounded open domain in $R^N$ ($N\ge 2$) with $C^2$ boundary $\partial\Omega$ and $\omega$ be the Hausdorff measure on $\partial\Omega$. We denote by $\frac{\partial^\alpha \omega}{\partial…
We consider the Helmholtz equation with real analytic coefficients on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{d}$. We take $d+1$ prescribed boundary conditions $f^{i}$ and frequencies $\omega$ in a fixed interval $[a,b]$. We consider a…
We study the regularity of the free boundary in one-phase Stefan problem with nonlinear operator. Using the Hodograph transform and a linearization technique, we prove that flat free boundaries are $C^{1, \alpha}$ in space and time. When…
We consider a Laplace type problem with a generalized impedance boundary condition of the form $\partial_\nu u=-\partial_x(g\partial_xu)$ on a flat part $\Gamma$ of the boundary. Here $\nu$ is the outward unit normal vector to…
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 $\alpha=1/2.$
We find necessary and sufficient conditions on the function $\Phi$ for the inequality $$\Big|\int_\Omega \Phi(K*f)\Big|\lesssim \|f\|_{L_1(\mathbb{R}^d)}^p$$ to be true. Here $K$ is a positively homogeneous of order $\alpha - d$, possibly…
It has been proved by the authors that the (extended) Sadowsky functional can be deduced as the Gamma-limit of the Kirchhoff energy on a rectangular strip of height $\varepsilon$, as $\varepsilon$ tends to 0. In this paper we show that this…
Let $\Gamma$ be a function that maps two arbitrary graphs $G$ and $H$ to a non-negative real number such that $$\alpha(G^{\boxtimes n})\leq \alpha(H^{\boxtimes n})\Gamma(G,H)^n$$ where $n$ is any natural number and $G^{\boxtimes n}$ is the…
