We investigate the regularity of the free boundary for a general class of two-phase free boundary problems with non-zero right hand side. We prove that Lipschitz or flat free boundaries are $C^{1,\gamma}$. In particular, viscosity solutions…
We consider a one-phase free boundary problem governed by doubly degenerate fully non-linear elliptic PDEs with non-zero right hand side, which should be understood as an analog (non-variational) of certain double phase functionals in the…
We prove that, given~$p>\max\left\{\frac{2n}{n+2},1\right\}$, the nonnegative almost minimizers of the nonlinear free boundary functional $$ J_p(u,\Omega):=\int_{\Omega}\Big( |\nabla u(x)|^p+\chi_{\{u>0\}}(x)\Big)\,dx$$ are Lipschitz…
We study the regularity of the interface for a new free boundary problem introduced by Caffarelli and Kriventsov. We show that for minimizers of the functional \[ F_1(A,u) = \int_A |\nabla u|^2 d\mathcal{L}^n + \int_{\partial A} u^2 +…
