Symmetry problems in harmonic analysis are formulated and solved. One of these problems is equivalent to the refined Schiffer's conjecture which was recently proved by the author. Let $k=const>0$ be fixed, $S^2$ be the unit sphere in…
For a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^m, m\geq 2,$ of class $C^0$, the properties are studied of fields of `good directions', that is the directions with respect to which $\partial\Omega$ can be locally represented as the graph of a…
In this paper we study some properties of the torsion function with Robin boundary conditions. Here we write the shape derivative of the $L^{\infty}$ and $L^p$ norms, for $p\ge 1$, of the torsion function, seen as a functional on a bounded…
In this paper, we study the near-boundary behavior of functions $u\in\mathcal{F}(\Omega)$ in the case where $\Omega$ is strictly pseudoconvex. We also introduce a sufficient condition for belonging to $\mathcal{F}$ in the case where…
We consider the behavior of the nonlocal minimal surfaces in the vicinity of the boundary. By a series of detailed examples, we show that nonlocal minimal surfaces may stick at the boundary of the domain, even when the domain is smooth and…
We prove that if the shape of the metric unit ball in a homogeneous group enjoys a precise symmetry property, then the associated distance yields the standard form of the area formula. The result applies to some classes of smooth and…
We show the following symmetry property of a bounded Reinhardt domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$: let $M=\partial\Omega$ be the smooth boundary of $\Omega$ and let $h$ be the Second Fundamental Form of $M$; if the coefficient $h(T,T)$…
Let $f:[0,+\infty) \to \mathbb{R}$ be a (locally) Lipschitz function and $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ a $C^{1,\alpha}$ domain whose boundary is unbounded and connected. If there exists a positive bounded solution to the overdetermined…
As well known, harmonic functions satisfy the mean value property, namely the average of the function over a ball is equal to its value at the center. This fact naturally raises the question on whether this is a characterizing feature of…
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth, bounded subset of $\mathbb{R}^3$ diffeomorphic to a ball. Consider $M = \mathbb{R}^3 \setminus \Omega$ equipped with an asymptotically flat metric $g = f^4 g_{\text{euc}}$, where $f\to 1$ at infinity. Assume that…
We assume that $\Omega_1, \Omega_2 \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n \geq 1$ are two disjoint domains whose complements satisfy the capacity density condition and the intersection of their boundaries $F$ has positive harmonic measure. Then we…
Let $\Omega$ be a domain in $\mathbb R^N$, where $N \ge 2$ and $\partial\Omega$ is not necessarily bounded. We consider nonlinear diffusion equations of the form $\partial_t u= \Delta \phi(u)$. Let $u=u(x,t)$ be the solution of either the…
We prove the following. If $f$ is a harmonic quasiconformal mapping between the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and a spatial domain with $C^{1,\alpha}$ boundary, then $f$ is Lipschitz continuous in $B$. This generalizes some known results for…
Motivated by pioneering works of Bandle and Wagner, given a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^d$ with $d\ge3$, we consider the Robin-Laplacian torsional rigidity $\tau_\alpha(\Omega)$ with negative boundary parameter…
This paper is devoted to the investigation of the boundary regularity for the Poisson equation $${{cc} -\Delta u = f & \text{in} \Omega u= 0 & \text{on} \partial \Omega$$ where $f$ belongs to some $L^p(\Omega)$ and $\Omega$ is a…
We obtain a conceptually new differential geometric proof of P.F. Klembeck's result that the holomorphic sectional curvature of a strictly pseudoconvex domain approaches (in the boundary limit) the constant sectional curvature of the…
We consider the unit ball $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N$ ($N\ge2$) filled with two materials with different conductivities. We perform shape derivatives up to the second order to find out precise information about locally optimal…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, convex, centrally symmetric in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ 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…
Given a bounded $C^2$ domain $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^d$ with $d\geq3$, we prove a sharp inequality which relates the perimeter of ${\partial\Omega}$ to the endpoint Gagliardo seminorm in $W^{r,2}({\partial\Omega})$, corresponding to…
In this note, we observe that if $B$ is a ball in a Euclidean space with dimension $n$, $n\geq3$, then a stable CMC hypersurface $\Sigma$ with free boundary in $B$ satisfies \[ nA\leq L\leq nA\left( \frac{1+\sqrt{1+4(n+1)H^2}}{2} \right)\,,…
