We study solutions to a one-phase singular perturbation problem that arises in combustion theory and that formally approximates the classical one-phase free boundary problem. We introduce a natural density condition on the transition layers…
In this note, we prove the finite ${(Q-1)}$-Hausdorff measure of the free boundary in the obstacle problem in a Carnot group $\mathbb{G}$. Here, $Q$ represents the homogeneous dimension of $\mathbb{G}$. Our main result, Theorem 1.1,…
We prove local measure bounds on the tubular neighbourhood of the singular set of codimension one stationary integral $n$-varifolds $V$ in Riemannian manifolds which have both: (i) finite index on their smoothly embedded part; and (ii)…
The simplest genuinely multidimensional monopolist's problem involves minimizing a linearly perturbed Dirichlet energy among nonnegative convex functions $u$ on an open domain $X \subset [0, \infty)^2$. The geometry of the region of strict…
We develop a new variational formulation of the inverse Stefan problem, where information on the heat flux on the fixed boundary is missing and must be found along with the temperature and free boundary. We employ optimal control framework,…
In this work we are interested in the self--affine fractals studied by Gatzouras and Lalley and by the author which generalize the famous general Sierpinski carpets studied by Bedford and McMullen. We give a formula for the Hausdorff…
We consider the problem of optimal location of a Dirichlet region in a $d$-dimensional domain $\Omega$ subjected to a given right-hand side $f$ in order to minimize some given functional of the configuration. While in the literature the…
We construct two new one-parameter families of monotonicity formulas to study the free boundary points in the lower dimensional obstacle problem. The first one is a family of Weiss type formulas geared for points of any given homogeneity…

We consider the problem of minimizing variational integrals defined on \cc{nonlinear} Sobolev spaces of competitors taking values into the sphere. The main novelty is that the underlying energy features a non-uniformly elliptic integrand…
We define two notions of discrete dimension based on the Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions in the continuous setting. After proving some basic results illustrating these definitions, we apply this machinery to the study of connections…
In this note we present an algorithm to obtain a uniform lower bound on Hausdorff dimension of the stationary measure of an affine iterated function scheme with similarities, the best known example of which is Bernoulli convolution. The…
A novel perturbative method, proposed by Panda {\it et al.} [1] to solve the Helmholtz equation in two dimensions, is extended to three dimensions for general boundary surfaces. Although a few numerical works are available in the literature…
We study the Hausdorff dimension of self-similar sets and measures on the line. We show that if the dimension is smaller than the minimum of 1 and the similarity dimension, then at small scales there are super-exponentially close cylinders.…
In the recent work [DFM1, DFM2] G. David, J. Feneuil, and the first author have launched a program devoted to an analogue of harmonic measure for lower-dimensional sets. A relevant class of partial differential equations, analogous to the…
We study the obstacle problem with an elliptic operator in nondivergence form with principal coefficients in VMO. We develop all of the basic theory of existence, uniqueness, optimal regularity, and nondegeneracy of the solutions. These…
Using McMullen's Hausdorff dimension algorithm, we study numerically the dimension of the limit set of groups generated by reflections along three geodesics on the hyperbolic plane. Varying these geodesics, we found four minima in the…
We prove the convergence of the fixed-point (also called thresholding) algorithm in three optimal control problems under large volume constraints. This algorithm was introduced by C\'ea, Gioan and Michel, and is of constant use in the…
We develop a method to study the structure of the common part of the boundaries of disjoint and possibly non-complementary time-varying domains in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n \geq 2$, at the points of mutual absolute continuity of their…
In this paper we prove existence and uniqueness of an entropy solution to the A-obstacle problem, for L^1 data. We also extend the Lewy-Stampacchia inequalities to the general framework of L^1 data, and show convergence and stability…
