We consider the fourth order problem $\Delta^{2}u=\lambda f(u)$ on a general bounded domain $\Omega$ in $R^{n}$ with the Navier boundary condition $u=\Delta u=0$ on $\partial \Omega$. Here, $\lambda$ is a positive parameter and $…
This paper is dedicated to a free boundary system arising in the study of a class of shape optimization problems. The problem involves three variables: two functions $u$ and $v$, and a domain $\Omega$; with $u$ and $v$ being both positive…

We construct nonnegative weak solutions to the singular parabolic free boundary problem \[ \partial_t u - \Delta u = - \frac{\mathrm{d}}{\mathrm{d} u} u_+^\gamma , \] where $\gamma \in (0,1]$, $u_+ := \max\{u,0\}$, and the term in the…

We study a class of two-phase inhomogeneous free boundary problems governed by elliptic equations in divergence form. In particular we prove that Lipschitz or flat free boundaries are $C^{1,\gamma}$. Our results apply to the classical…
We consider H\"older continuous weak solutions $u\in C^\gamma(\Omega)$, $u\cdot n|_{\partial \Omega}=0$, of the incompressible Euler equations on a bounded and simply connected domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$. If $\Omega$ is of class…
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$ and $\delta(x)=\text{dist}\,(x,\partial \Omega)$. Assume $\mu>0$, $\nu$ is a nonnegative finite measure on $\partial \Omega$ and $g \in C(\Omega \times \mathbb{R}_+)$. We study…
We consider an one-phase free boundary problem for a degenerate fully non-linear elliptic operators with non-zero right hand side. We use the approach present in \cite{DeSilva} to prove that flat free boundaries and Lipschitz free…
We prove the (optimal) $W^{1,\infty}$-regularity of weak solutions to the equation $-\Delta u = Q \; \mathcal{H}^{n-1} \llcorner \Gamma$ in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions, where $\Gamma \subset…
In this paper we consider the fully nonlinear parabolic free boundary problem $$ \left\{\begin{array}{ll} F(D^2u) -\partial_t u=1 & \text{a.e. in}Q_1 \cap \Omega\\ |D^2 u| + |\partial_t u| \leq K & \text{a.e. in}Q_1\setminus\Omega,…
In this article, we establish global regularity results ($ C^{0,\gamma}$, $ C^{0,1} $ and $ C^{1}$ estimates) for a class of degenerate fully nonlinear equation on $ C^{2} $-domain. This corresponds to the boundary counterpart of the…
We study the regularity up to the boundary of solutions to the Neumann problem for the fractional Laplacian. We prove that if $u$ is a weak solution of $(-\Delta)^s u=f$ in $\Omega$, $\mathcal N_s u=0$ in $\Omega^c$, then $u$ is $C^\alpha$…
In general, solutions $u$ to \[ \Delta u(\mathbf{x})=f(\mathbf{x})\chi_{\{u>\psi\}} \] are not $C^{1,1}$, even for $f$ smooth and $\psi(\mathbf{x})\equiv0$. Points around which $u$ is not $C^{1,1}$ are called singular points, and the set of…
We study the obstacle problem for integro-differential operators of order $2s$, with $s\in (0,1)$. Our main result establishes that the free boundary is $C^{1,\gamma}$ and $u\in C^{1,s}$ near all regular points. Namely, we prove the…
The regularity of the free boundary in optimal transportation is equivalent to that of the potential function along the free boundary. By establishing new geometric estimates of the free boundary and studying the second boundary value…
