Classically, Plateau's problem asks to find a surface of the least area with a given boundary $B$. In this article, we investigate a version of Plateau's problem, where the boundary of an admissible surface is only required to partially…
We study the regularity of the free boundary in the obstacle for the $p$-Laplacian, $\min\bigl\{-\Delta_p u,\,u-\varphi\bigr\}=0$ in $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$. Here, $\Delta_p u=\textrm{div}\bigl(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\bigr)$, and…
