In this article we study a Bernoulli-type free boundary problem and generalize a work of Henrot and Shahgholian in \cite{HS1} to $\mathcal{A}$-harmonic PDEs. These are quasi-linear elliptic PDEs whose structure is modeled on the $p$-Laplace…

Let $ \ti \Om $ be a bounded convex domain in Euclidean $ n $ space, $ \hat x \in \ar \ti \Om, $ and $ r > 0. $ Let $ \ti u = (\ti u^1, \ti u^2, \dots, \ti u^N) $ be a weak solution to \[\nabla \cdot \left (|\nabla \ti u |^{p-2} \nabla \ti…

Aim of this paper is to provide higher order boundary Harnack principles [De Silva-Savin 15] for elliptic equations in divergence form under Dini type regularity assumptions on boundaries, coefficients and forcing terms. As it was proven in…

For any \alpha in (0, 2), a truncated symmetric \alpha-stable process is a symmetric Levy process with no diffusion part and with a Levy density given by c|x|^{-d-\alpha} 1_{|x|< 1} for some constant c. In previous paper we have studied the…

We prove that for harmonic quasiconformal mappings $\alpha$-H\"older continuity on the boundary implies $\alpha$-H\"older continuity of the map itself. Our result holds for the class of uniformly perfect bounded domains, in fact we can…

We reduce the problem of proving decay estimates for viscosity solutions of fully nonlinear PDEs to proving analogous estimates for solutions of one-dimensional ordinary differential inequalities. Our machinery allow the ellipticity to…

For $d\geq 1$ and $\alpha \in (0, 2)$, consider the family of pseudo differential operators $\{\Delta+ b \Delta^{\alpha/2}; b\in [0, 1]\}$ on $\R^d$ that evolves continuously from $\Delta$ to $\Delta + \Delta^{\alpha/2}$. In this paper, we…

Higher regularity estimate has been a challenging question for the Boltzmann equation in bounded domains. Indeed, it is well-known to have "the non-existence of a second order derivative at the boundary" in [15] even for symmetric convex…

A Bernoulli free boundary problem with geometrical constraints is studied. The domain $\Om$ is constrained to lie in the half space determined by $x_1\geq 0$ and its boundary to contain a segment of the hyperplane $\{x_1=0\}$ where…

Let $u$ be a harmonic function in the unit ball $B_1 \subset \mathbb R^n$, normalized so that its gradient has magnitude at most 1 on the unit ball. We show that if the gradient of $u$ is $\epsilon$-small in size on a set $E\subset B_{1/2}$…

We present a construction of harmonic functions on bounded domains for the spectral fractional Laplacian operator and we classify them in terms of their divergent profile at the boundary. This is used to establish and solve boundary value…

We study properties of positive functions satisfying (E) --$\Delta$u+m|$\nabla$u| q -- u p = 0 is a domain $\Omega$ or in R N + when p > 1 and 1 < q < 2. We give sufficient conditions for the existence of a solution to (E) with a…

We study an overdetermined eigenvalue problem for domains $\Omega$ contained in the half-cylinder $\Sigma=\omega \times (0, +\infty)$, based on a bounded regular domain $\omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{N-1}$. It is easy to see that in any…

In this work, we revisit the following estimate due to Dahlberg \cite{Dahl}. Let $\textit{\textbf x}_0$ a fixed point in a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$. Then there exists a constant $C > 0$ such that if $u$ is a harmonic function in…
