We study minimizing singular cones with free boundary associated with the capillarity problem. Precisely, we provide a stability criterion $\`a$ la Jerison-Savin for capillary hypersurfaces and show that, in dimensions up to $4$, minimizing…

Certain steady states of the Vlasov-Poisson system can be characterized as minimizers of an energy-Casimir functional, and this fact implies a nonlinear stability property of such steady states. In previous investigations by Y. Guo and the…

In this paper we obtain rigidity results for a bounded non-constant entire solution $u$ of the Allen-Cahn equation in $\mathbb{R}^n$, whose level set $\{u=0\}$ is contained in a half-space. If $n\leq 3$ we prove that the solution must be…

We study a model for combustion on a boundary. Specifically, we study certain generalized solutions of the equation \[ (-\Delta)^s u = \chi_{\{u>c\}} \] for $0<s<1$ and an arbitrary constant $c$. Our main object of study is the free…

Consider an $(n+1)$-dimensional circular cone with opening angle $\alpha \in (0,\pi)$. Using a free-boundary adaptation of the classical calibration method, we prove that, for $n \geq 4$, there exists a threshold $\bar{\alpha}(n) \in…

Using a direct approach, we prove a $2$-dimensional epiperimetric inequality for the one-phase problem in the scalar and vectorial cases and for the double-phase problem. From this we deduce, in dimension $2$, the $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity…

We consider the class of stable solutions to semilinear equations $-\Delta u=f(u)$ in a bounded smooth domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Since 2010 an interior a priori $L^\infty$ bound for stable solutions is known to hold in dimensions $n \leq 4$…
