We establish the existence of positive solutions to a general class of overdetermined semilinear elliptic boundary problems on suitable bounded open sets $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$. Specifically, for $n\leq 4$ and under mild technical…
We study the singular set of free interface in an optimal partition problem for the Dirichlet eigenvalues. We prove that its upper $(n-2)$-dimensional Minkowski content, and consequently, its $(n-2)$-dimensional Hausdorff measure are…
The focus of this work is on the homogeneous and non-homogeneous Dirichlet problem for the Laplacian in bounded Lipschitz domains (BLD). Although it has been extensively studied by many authors, we would like to return to a number of…

In a bounded domain, we consider a variable range nonlocal operator, which is maximally isotropic in the sense that its radius of interaction equals the distance to the boundary. We establish $C^{1,\alpha}$ boundary regularity and existence…
This paper provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of free boundaries in overdetermined value-problems (ODVP) for the Laplacian, and sufficient conditions for the bi-Laplacian, when the overdetermined boundary…

For elliptic systems with block structure in the upper half-space and t-independent coefficients, we settle the study of boundary value problems by proving compatible well-posedness of Dirichlet, regularity and Neumann problems in optimal…
We consider the nonlinear eigenvalue problem $ L u = \lambda f(u) $, posed in a smooth bounded domain $ \Omega \subseteq \Bbb{R}^{N} $ with Dirichlet boundary condition, where $ L $ is a uniformly elliptic second-order linear differential…
This paper is devoted to the proof of uniform H\"older and Lipschitz estimates close to oscillating boundaries, for divergence form elliptic systems with periodically oscillating coefficients. Our main point is that no structure is assumed…
We study the higher regularity of free boundaries in obstacle problems for integro-differential operators. Our main result establishes that, once free boundaries are $C^{1,\alpha}$, then they are $C^\infty$. This completes the study of…
We investigate general semilinear (obstacle-like) problems of the form $\Delta u = f(u)$, where $f(u)$ has a singularity/jump at $\{u=0\}$ giving rise to a free boundary. Unlike many works on such equations where $f$ is approximately…
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ be an open set in space-time with boundary $\Sigma = \partial \Omega$. Under minimal and natural background assumptions - namely, that $\Sigma$ is time-symmetrically parabolic Ahlfors--David regular and…
We consider the "Method of particular solutions" for numerically computing eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian $\Delta$ on a smooth, bounded domain Omega in RR^n with either Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions. This method…
For the Alt-Caffarelli problem, we study free boundary regularity of energy minimizers. In six dimensions, we show that free boundaries are analytic for generic boundary data. In general, we improve previous generic Hausdorff dimensions of…
We mainly discuss superquadratic minimization problems for splitting-type variational integrals on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and prove higher integrability of the gradient up to the boundary by incorporating…
This article considers nonlocal heat flows into a singular target space. The problem is the parabolic analogue of a stationary problem that arises as the limit of a singularly perturbed elliptic system. It also provides a gradient flow…
Bounds are obtained for the $L^p$ norm of the torsion function $v_{\Omega}$, i.e. the solution of $-\Delta v=1,\, v\in H_0^1(\Omega),$ in terms of the Lebesgue measure of $\Omega$ and the principal eigenvalue $\lambda_1(\Omega)$ of the…
