Let $N$ be a Riemannian manifold and consider a stationary union of three or more $C^{1,\mu}$ hypersurfaces-with-boundary $M_k$ in $N$ with a common boundary $\Gamma$. We show that if $N$ is smooth, then $\Gamma$ is smooth and each $M_k$ is…

In this paper we analyze the singular set in the Stefan problem and prove the following results: - The singular set has parabolic Hausdorff dimension at most $n-1$. - The solution admits a $C^\infty$-expansion at all singular points, up to…

We study the Signorini problem near a fixed boundary, where the solution is "clamped down" or "glued." We show that in general the solutions are at least $C^{1/2}$ regular and that this regularity is sharp. We prove that near the actual…

Variational inequalities with thin obstacles and Signorini-type boundary conditions are classical problems in the calculus of variations, arising in numerous applications. In the linear case many refined results are known, while in the…

We prove the -- to the best knowledge of the authors -- first result on the fine asymptotic behavior of the regular part of the free boundary of the obstacle problem close to singularities. The result is motivated by our recent partial…

We establish generic regularity results for isoperimetric regions in closed Riemannian manifolds of dimension eight. In particular, we show that every isoperimetric region has a smooth nondegenerate boundary for a generic choice of smooth…

We study the regularity of solutions to the fully nonlinear thin obstacle problem. We establish local $C^{1,\alpha}$ estimates on each side of the smooth obstacle, for some small $\alpha > 0$. Our results extend those of Milakis-Silvestre…

We prove that for $n>3$ each generic simple polytope in $\mathbb{R}^n$ contains a point with at least $2n+4$ emanating normals to the boundary. This result is a piecewise-linear counterpart of a long-standing problem about normals to smooth…
