We consider overdetermined problems for two classes of fully nonlinear equations with constant Dirichlet boundary conditions in a bounded domain in space forms. We prove that if the domain is star-shaped, then the solution to the Hessian…

We examine Serrin's classical overdetermined problem under a perturbation of the Neumann boundary condition. The solution of the problem for a constant Neumann boundary condition exists provided that the underlying domain is a ball. The…

We consider the anisotropic Calderon problem of recovering a conductivity matrix or a Riemannian metric from electrical boundary measurements in three and higher dimensions. In the earlier work \cite{DKSaU}, it was shown that a metric in a…

Given a bounded regular domain $\omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{N-1}$ and the half-cylinder $\Sigma = \omega \times (0,+\infty)$, we consider the relative overdetermined torsion problem in $\Sigma$, i.e. \[\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \Delta…

Let $S$ be a smooth hypersurface properly embedded in $\mathbb R^N$ with $N \geq 3$ and consider its tubular neighborhood $\mathcal N$. We show that, if a heat flow over $\mathcal N$ with appropriate initial and boundary conditions has $S$…
