We introduce a new lattice growth model, which we call boundary sandpile. The model amounts to potential-theoretic redistribution of a given initial mass on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ ($d\geq 2$) onto the boundary of an (a priori) unknown domain. The…

A two-dimensional free boundary model for the growth of multi-layer tumors has been proposed in [S. Cui, J. Escher: ARMA 191 (2009) 173-193] where the authors derive well-posedness in a functional analytic setting, the stationary solutions…
