We prove the (optimal) $W^{1,\infty}$-regularity of weak solutions to the equation $-\Delta u = Q \; \mathcal{H}^{n-1} \llcorner \Gamma$ in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions, where $\Gamma \subset…

We prove optimal Lipschitz regularity for weak solutions of the measure-valued $p$-Poisson equation $-\Delta_p u = Q \; \mathcal{H}^{n-1} \llcorner \Gamma$. Here $p \in (1,2)$, $\Gamma$ is a compact and connected $C^2$-hypersurface without…

This article studies (optimal) $W^{2m-1,\infty}$-regularity for the polyharmonic equation $(-\Delta)^m u = Q \; \mathcal{H}^{n-1} \llcorner \Gamma$, where $\Gamma$ is a (suitably regular) $(n-1)$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^n$,…

Many geometric and analytic properties of sets hinge on the properties of harmonic measure, notoriously missing for sets of higher co-dimension. The aim of this manuscript is to develop a version of elliptic theory, associated to a linear…

In this manuscript we study geometric regularity estimates for quasi-linear elliptic equations of $p$-Laplace type ($1 < p< \infty$) with strong absorption condition: $$ -\text{div}\,(\Phi(x, u, \nabla u)) + \lambda_0(x) u_{+}^q(x) = 0…

We study the behavior of weak solutions to the singular quasilinear elliptic problem $-\Delta_p u + \vartheta |\nabla u|^q = \frac{1}{u^\gamma} + f(u)$, in a bounded domain with the Dirichlet boundary condition, where $p>1$, $\gamma>0$,…

We study regularity properties of the free boundary for the thin one-phase problem which consists of minimizing the energy functional $$\label{E} E(u,\Omega) = \int_\Omega |\nabla u|^2 dX + \mathcal{H}^n(\{u>0\} \cap \{x_{n+1} = 0\}), \quad…

We show that the elliptic equation with a non-Lipschitz right-hand side, $-\Delta u = \lambda |u|^{\beta-1}u - |u|^{\alpha-1}u$ with $\lambda>0$ and $0<\alpha<\beta<1$, considered on a smooth star-shaped domain $\Omega$ subject to zero…

We mainly investigate some properties of quasiconformal mappings between smooth 2-dimensional surfaces with boundary in the Euclidean space, satisfying certain partial differential equations (inequalities) concerning Laplacian, and in…

We deal with homogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann boundary-value problems for anisotropic elliptic operators of p-Laplace type. They emerge as Euler-Lagrange equations of integral functionals of the Calculus of Variations built upon possibly…

We consider weak solutions to a class of Dirichlet boundary value problems invloving the $p$-Laplace operator, and prove that the second weak derivatives are in $L^{q}$ with $q$ as large as it is desirable, provided $p$ is sufficiently…

In this paper we consider a quasilinear elliptic PDE, $\text{div} (A(x,u) \nabla u) =0$, where the underlying physical problem gives rise to a jump for the conductivity $A(x,u)$, across a level surface for $u$. Our analysis concerns…

It has been well known that if $\Omega$ is a bounded $C^1$-domain in $\R^n,\ n \ge 2$, then for every Radon measure $f$ on $\Omega$ with finite total variation, there exists a unique weak solution $u\in W_0^{1,1}(\Omega )$ of the Poisson…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ be an open set. In this work we consider solutions of the following gradient elliptic system \[ -\text{div}(A(x)\nabla u_{i,\beta}) = f_i(x,u_{i,\beta}) + a(x)\beta |u_{i, \beta}|^{\gamma -1}u_{i, \beta}…

Solutions to elliptic equations often exhibit higher regularity properties such as \emph{higher integrability}. That is, for instance, a solution $u$ to a system that a priori only satisfies $ u \in W^{1,r}$ is more regular and even in the…
