We consider approximations of the Stefan-type condition by imbalances of volume closely around the inner interface and study convergence of the solutions of the corresponding semilinear stochastic moving boundary problems. After a…
In this manuscript, we delve into the study of maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega;\overline M)$ that minimize the Alt-Caffarelli energy functional $$ \int_\Omega (|Du|^2 + q^2 \chi_{u^{-1}(M)})\,dx, $$ under the condition that the image $u(\Omega)$…
We investigate the regularity of the free boundary for the Signorini problem in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. It is known that regular points are $(n-1)$-dimensional and $C^\infty$. However, even for $C^\infty$ obstacles $\varphi$, the set of…
We introduce a diffuse-interface Landau-de Gennes free energy for nematic liquid crystals (NLC) systems, with free boundaries, in three dimensions submerged in isotropic liquid, and a phase field is introduced to model the deformable…
We continue the analysis of the two-phase free boundary problems initiated in \cite{DK}, where we studied the linear growth of minimizers in a Bernoulli type free boundary problem at the non-flat points and the related regularity of free…
In this paper, we consider a double-phase problem characterised by a transmission that takes place across the zero level "surface" of the minimiser of the functional $$ J(v,\Omega) = \int_\Omega \left( |D v^+|^p + |D v^-|^q \right) dx. $$…
In this work, we study the asymptotic behavior of the free boundary of the solution to the exterior Bernoulli problem for the half Laplacian when the Bernoulli's gradient parameter tends to $0^+$ and to $+\infty$. Moreover, we show that,…
We consider a free interface problem which stems from a solid-gas model in combustion with pattern formation. We derive a third-order, fully nonlinear, self-consistent equation for the flame front. Asymptotic methods reveal that the…
In this paper we establish a connection between free boundary minimal surfaces in a ball in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and free boundary cones arising in a one-phase problem. We prove that a doubly connected minimal surface with free boundary in a ball…
We prove the nondegeneracy condition for stable solutions to the one-phase free boundary problem. The proof is by a De Giorgi iteration, where we need the Sobolev inequality of Michael and Simon and, consequently, an integral estimate for…
In this article we study optimization problems ruled by $\alpha$-fractional diffusion operators with volume constraints. By means of penalization techniques we prove existence of solutions. We also show that every solution is locally of…
In this work we demonstrate that a class of some one and two phase free boundary problems can be recast as nonlocal parabolic equations on a submanifold. The canonical examples would be one-phase Hele Shaw flow, as well as its two-phase…
We study the free boundary of solutions to the parabolic obstacle problem with fully nonlinear diffusion. We show that the free boundary splits into a regular and a singular part: near regular points the free boundary is $C^\infty$ in space…
We study a class of variational problems involving both bulk and interface energies. The bulk energy is of Dirichlet type albeit of very general form allowing the dependence from the unknown variable $u$ and the position $x$. We employ the…
We prove an analogue for a one-phase free boundary problem of the classical gradient bound for solutions to the minimal surface equation. It follows, in particular, that every energy-minimizing free boundary that is a graph is also smooth.…
A one-dimensional fractional one-phase Stefan problem with a temperature boundary condition at the fixed face is considered. An integral relationship between the temperature and the free boundary is obtained which is equivalent to the…
In this paper we consider scalar parabolic equations in a general non-smooth setting with emphasis on mixed interface and boundary conditions. In particular, we allow for dynamics and diffusion on a Lipschitz interface and on the boundary,…
In this paper, a one-phase Stefan-type problem for a semi-infinite material which has as its main feature a variable latent heat that depends on the power of the position and the velocity of the moving boundary is studied. Exact solutions…
A variational model for describing the morphology of two-phase continua by allowing for the interplay between coherent and incoherent interfaces is introduced. Coherent interfaces are characterized by the microscopical arrangement of atoms…
We consider the one-dimensional linear free space Schr\"odinger equation on a bounded interval subject to homogeneous linear boundary conditions. We prove that, in the case of pseudoperiodic boundary conditions, the solution of the…
