We consider a hyperbolic free boundary problem by means of minimizing time discretized functionals of Crank-Nicolson type. The feature of this functional is that it enjoys energy conservation in the absence of free boundaries, which is an…

We will study a free boundary value problem driven by a source term which is quite {\it irregular}. In the process, we will establish a monotonicity result, and regularity of the solution.
We consider the semilinear problem \[ \Delta u = \lambda_+ \left(-\log u^+\right) 1_{\{u > 0\}} - \lambda_- \left(-\log u^- \right) 1_{\{u < 0\}} \qquad \hbox{ in } B_1, \] where $B_1$ is the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and assume…
In this paper, we consider a free boundary problem with volume constraint. We show that positive minimizer is locally Lipschitz and the free boundary is analytic away from a singular set with Hausdorff dimension at most $n-8$.
In this paper we present a survey concerning unconstrained free boundary problems of type $$ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} F_1(D^2u,\nabla u,u,x)=0 & \text{in }B_1 \cap \Omega ,\\ F_2 (D^2 u,\nabla u,u,x)=0 & \text{in }B_1\setminus\Omega ,\\ u…
Given~$s,\sigma\in(0,1)$ and a bounded domain~$\Omega\subset\R^n$, we consider the following minimization problem of $s$-Dirichlet plus $\sigma$-perimeter type $$ [u]_{ H^s(\R^{2n}\setminus(\Omega^c)^2) } +…

We apply new results on free boundary regularity of one-phase almost minimizers in periodic media to obtain a quantitative convergence rate for the shape optimizers of the first Dirichlet eigenvalue in periodic homogenization. We obtain a…
Given a complete doubling metric measure space $X$ that supports a $2$-Poincar\'e inequality, we approximate harmonic functions on a bounded domain $\Omega$ with a prescribed Newton-Sobolev boundary data. Our approach is based on the…
In this paper, we extend the related notions of Dirichlet quasiminimizer, $\omega-$minimizer and almost minimizer to the framework of multiple-valued functions in the sense of Almgren and prove Holder regularity results. We also give…
We study a rather broad class of optimal partition problems with respect to monotone and coercive functional costs that involve the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the partitions. We show a sharp regularity result for the entire set of minimizers…
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 regularity properties of minimizers for non-autonomous convex variational integrands $F(x, \mathrm{D} u)$ with linear growth, defined on bounded Lipschitz domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. Assuming appropriate…
This is the second of two articles in which we investigate the geometry of free boundary and capillary minimal surfaces in balls $B_R\subset\mathbb{S}^3$. In this article, we find monotonicity formulae which imply that capillary minimal…
For a fixed constant $\lambda > 0$ and a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with $n \geq 2$, we establish that almost-minimizers (functions satisfying a sort of variational inequality) of the Alt-Caffarelli type…
