We consider a space-homogeneous gas of {\it inelastic hard spheres}, with a {\it diffusive term} representing a random background forcing (in the framework of so-called {\em constant normal restitution coefficients} $\alpha \in [0,1]$ for…
The work in this paper concerns the study of different approximations for one-dimensional one-phase Stefan-like problems with a space-dependent latent heat. It is considered two different problems, which differ from each other in their…
We prove that, if a Brakke flow with boundary is close enough to a stationary half-plane with density one, then it is $C^{1,\alpha}$. Our approach is based on viscosity techniques introduced by Savin in the context of elliptic equations.…
We report on a general purpose method for the scalar Stefan problem inspired by the standard boundary updating method used in several existence proofs. By suitably modifying it we can solve numerically any kind of Stefan problem. We present…
In this paper we develop a boundary $\varepsilon$-regularity theory for optimal transport maps between bounded open sets with $C^{1,\alpha}$-boundary. Our main result asserts sharp $C^{1,\alpha}$-regularity of transport maps at the boundary…
We prove that the unique solution to the Dirichlet problem with constant source term for the inhomogeneous normalized infinity Laplacian on a convex domain of $\mathbb{R}^N$ is of class $C^1$. The result is obtained by showing as an…
We study the free boundary in the supercooled Stefan problem, a classical model for the solidification of water below its freezing temperature. In contrast with the melting problem, physical experiments and heuristics indicate that the…
In this article we continue our investigation of the thin obstacle problem with variable coefficients which was initiated in \cite{KRS14}, \cite{KRSI}. Using a partial Hodograph-Legendre transform and the implicit function theorem, we prove…
We prove a quantitative inhomogeneous Hopf-Oleinik lemma for viscosity solutions of $$|\nabla u|^{\alpha}F(D^{2}u)=f $$ and, more generally, for viscosity supersolutions of $|\nabla u|^{\alpha}\,{M}^-_{\lambda,\Lambda}(D^{2}u)\le f$. The…
The goal of this paper is to establish generic regularity of free boundaries for the obstacle problem in $\mathbb R^n$. By classical results of Caffarelli, the free boundary is $C^\infty$ outside a set of singular points. Explicit examples…
This paper presents results for the sampled-data boundary feedback control to the Stefan problem. The Stefan problem represents a liquid-solid phase change phenomenon which describes the time evolution of a material's temperature profile…
We introduce unconditionally stable finite element approximations for a phase field model for solidification, which take highly anisotropic surface energy and kinetic effects into account. We hence approximate Stefan problems with…
We prove an analogue for a one-phase free boundary problem of the classical gradient bound for solutions to the minimal surface equation. It follows, in particular, that every energy-minimizing free boundary that is a graph is also smooth.…
Let $(M^n,g)$ be a Riemannian manifold without boundary. We study the amount of initial regularity is required so that the solution to free Schr\"{o}dinger equation converges pointwisely to its initial data. Assume the initial data is in…
We construct examples for the one-phase Stefan problem which show that $\alpha$-concavity of the solution is in general not preserved in time, for $0 \le \alpha <1/2$. In particular, this shows that, in contrast to the case of the heat…
This paper is a continuation of the work in \cite{kimzhang2024} concerning Hele-Shaw flow with both drift and source terms. We prove that, in a local neighborhood, if the free boundary is Lipschitz continuous with a sufficiently small…
In this article we establish $C^{3,\alpha}$-regularity of the reduced boundary of stationary points of a nonlocal isoperimetric problem in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, stationary points satisfy the corresponding…
We show that any minimizer of the well-known ACF functional (for the $p$-Laplacian) is a viscosity solution. This allows us to establish a uniform flatness decay at the two-phase free boundary points to improve the flatness, that boils down…
We prove sharp boundary H{\"o}lder regularity for solutions to equations involving stable integro-differential operators in bounded open sets satisfying the exterior $C^{1,\text{dini}}$-property. This result is new even for the fractional…
We study a general class of elliptic free boundary problems equipped with a Dirichlet boundary condition. Our primary result establishes an optimal $C^{1,1}$-regularity estimate for $L^p$-strong solutions at points where the free and fixed…
