We address the question of the exponential stability for the $C^{1}$ norm of general 1-D quasilinear systems with source terms under boundary conditions. To reach this aim, we introduce the notion of basic $C^{1}$ Lyapunov functions, a…

The key point to prove the optimal $C^{1,\frac12}$ regularity of the thin obstacle problem is that the frequency at a point of the free boundary $x_0\in\Gamma(u)$, say $N^{x_0}(0^+,u)$, satisfies the lower bound $N^{x_0}(0^+,u)\ge\frac32$.…
