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 entire minimizers of the Allen-Cahn systems. The specific feature of our systems are potentials having a finite number of global minima, with sub-quadratic behaviour locally near their minima. The corresponding formal…

In this paper, we study the regularity of the "regular" part of the free boundary for almost minimizers in the parabolic Signorini problem with zero thin obstacle. This work is a continuation of our earlier research on the regularity of…
