We study the regularity of minimizers to the functional \[ J(w)=\int_{\Omega} a^{ij}w_iw_j + Q\chi_{\{w>0\}}, \] over a bounded domain $\Omega$ and among the class of nonnegative functions in $W^{1,2}(\Omega)$ with prescribed boundary data.…

Given a bounded open subset $\Omega$ and closed subsets $A,B$ of $\mathbb{R}^k$, we discuss when an estimate $u(x)\le g(dist(x,A\cup B))$, $x\in\Omega\setminus(A\cup B)$, for a function $u$ subharmonic on $\Omega\setminus B$, implies that…
