Motivated by questions in inverse scattering theory, we develop free boundary methods in obstacle problems where both the solution and the right hand side of the equation may have varying sign. The key condition that prevents the appearance…
In this paper, we study superlinear systems that give rise to free boundaries. Such systems appear for example from the minimization of the energy functional $$ \int_{\Omega}\left(|\nabla\mathbf{u}|^2+\frac2p|\mathbf{u}|^p\right),\quad…
We study a linear problem that arises in the study of dynamic boundaries, in particular in free boundary problems in connection with fluid dynamics. The equations are also very natural and of interest on their own.
We prove quantitative estimates on the rate of convergence for the oscillating Dirichlet problem in periodic homogenization of divergence-form uniformly elliptic systems. The estimates are optimal in dimensions larger than three and new in…
We study a class of semilinear free boundary problems in which admissible functions $u$ have a topological constraint, or spanning condition, on their 1-level set. This constraint forces $\{u=1\}$, which is the free boundary, to behave like…
We extend basic regularity of the free boundary of the obstacle problem to some classes of heterogeneous quasilinear elliptic operators with variable growth that includes, in particular, the $p(x)$-Laplacian. Under the assumption of…
Local volume-constrained minimizers in anisotropic capillarity problems develop free boundaries on the walls of their containers. We prove the regularity of the free boundary outside a closed negligible set, showing in particular the…
A class of diffusion driven Free Boundary Problems is considered which is characterized by the initial onset of a phase and by an explicit kinematic condition for the evolution of the free boundary. By a domain fixing change of variables it…
We will study a free boundary value problem driven by a source term which is quite {\it irregular}. In the process, we will establish a monotonicity result, and regularity of the solution.
In this paper, we study the large-scale boundary regularity for the Stokes system in periodically oscillating John domains. Our main contribution is the construction of boundary layer correctors of arbitrary order. This is a significant…
We study higher critical points of the variational functional associated with a free boundary problem related to plasma confinement. Existence and regularity of minimizers in elliptic free boundary problems have already been studied…
We consider nonlinear viscoelastic materials of differential type and for some special models we derive exact solutions of initial boundary value problems. These exact solutions are used to investigate the reasons of non-existence of global…
This note is an addendum to the results of P.O. Frederickson and A.C. Lazer [1], and A.C. Lazer [4] on periodic oscillations, with linear part at resonance. We show that a small modification of the argument in [4] provides a more general…
These notes record and expand the lectures for the `Journ\'ees \'Equations aux D\'eriv\'ees Partielles 2018' held by the author during the week of June 11-15, 2018. The aim is to give a overview of the classical theory for the obstacle…
We consider one-dimensional stochastic differential equations with a boundary condition, driven by a Poisson process. We study existence and uniqueness of solutions and the absolute continuity of the law of the solution. In the case when…
