Assuming a lower bound on the dimension, we prove a long standing conjecture concerning the classification of global solutions of the obstacle problem with unbounded coincidence sets.
The characterization of global solutions to the obstacle problems in $\mathbb{R}^N$, or equivalently of null quadrature domains, has been studied over more than 90 years. In this paper we give a conclusive answer to this problem by proving…
In this paper, we show global existence, in spatial dimensions greater than or equal to four, for semilinear wave equations with quadratic nonlinearities exterior to a nontrapping obstacle. This extends the previous work of Shibata-Tsutsumi…
As indicated by the third author in [19], there is a gap in the previous version of this paper by the first two authors [5]. We provide in this version an argument to fix the aforementioned gap. The main proposition, whose proof uses…
We establish symmetry results for two categories of overdetermined obstacle problems: a Serrin-type problem and a two-phase problem under the overdetermination that the interface serves as a level surface of the solution. The first proof…
In this paper we give a full classification of global solutions of the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian (including the thin obstacle problem) with compact coincidence set and at most polynomial growth in dimension $N \geq 3$.…
We prove global existence of solutions to quasilinear wave equations with quadratic nonlinearities exterior to nontrapping obstacles in spatial dimensions four and higher. This generalizes a result of Shibata and Tsutsumi in spatial…
In this paper we give a proof of an epiperimetric inequality in the setting of the lower dimensional obstacle problem. The inequality was introduced by Weiss (Invent. Math., 138 (1999), no. 1, 23-50) for the classical obstacle problem and…
We obtain a global existence result for the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations with a large class of initial data allowing growth at spatial infinity. Our work is a continuation of the results by T.-P. Tsai, Z. Bradshaw, I. Kukavica…
We briefly survey global bifurcation techniques, and illustrate their use by finding multiple positive periodic solutions to a class of second order quasilinear ODEs related to the Yamabe problem. As an application, we give a…

H\"ormander proved global existence of solutions for sufficiently small initial data for scalar wave equations in $(1+4)-$dimensions of the form $\Box u = Q(u, u', u'')$ where $Q$ vanishes to second order and $(\partial_u^2 Q)(0,0,0)=0$.…
We prove existence, uniqueness and asymptotics of global smooth solutions for the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in dimension $n \ge 3$, valid under a smallness condition of initial gradients in the $L^n$ norm. The argument is based on…
By introducing a new classification of the growth rate of exponential functions, singular solutions for semilinear elliptic equations in 2-dimensions with exponential nonlinearities are constructed. The strategy is to introduce a model…
Numerical solutions of Einstein's and scalar-field equations are found for a global defect in a higher-dimensional spacetime. The defect has a $(3+1)$-dimensional core and a ``hedgehog'' scalar-field configuration in $n=3$ extra dimensions.…
The Bayesian approach has proved to be a coherent approach to handle ill posed Inverse problems. However, the Bayesian calculations need either an optimization or an integral calculation. The maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation requires…
Assuming the four-dimensional space-time to be a general warped product of two surfaces we reduce the four-dimensional Einstein equations to a two-dimensional problem which can be solved. All global vacuum solutions are explicitly…
We study rigidity/flexibility properties of global solutions to the thin obstacle problem. For solutions with bounded positive sets, we give a classification in terms of their expansions at infinity. For solutions with bounded contact sets,…
The thin obstacle problem or $n$-dimensional Signorini problem is a classical variational problem arising in several applications, starting with its first introduction in elasticity theory. The vast literature concerns mostly quadratic…
This paper is concerned with the global well-posedness of the two-dimensional incompressible vorticity equation in the half plane. Under the assumption that the initial vorticity $\omega_0\in W^{k,p}(\R^{2}_+)$ with $k\geq3$ and $1<p<2$, it…
