The problem of sampling according to the probability distribution minimizing a given free energy, using interacting particles unadjusted kinetic Langevin Monte Carlo, is addressed. In this setting, three sources of error arise, related to…
We introduce some new functions spaces to investigate some problems at or beyond endpoint. First, we prove that Bochner-Riesz means $B_R^\lambda$ are bounded from some subspaces of $L^p_{|x|^\alpha}$ to $L^p_{|x|^\alpha}$ for $…
We study critical points of a one-parameter family of functionals arising in combustion models. The problems we consider converge, for infinitesimal values of the parameter, to Bernoulli's free boundary problem, also known as one-phase…

We prove Lipschitz continuity of solutions to a class of rather general two-phase anisotropic free boundary problems in 2D and we classify global solutions. As a consequence, we obtain $C^{2,1}$ regularity of solutions to the Bellman…
We characterize Young measures generated by gradients of bi-Lipschitz orientation-preserving maps in the plane. This question is motivated by variational problems in nonlinear elasticity where the orientation preservation and injectivity of…
We continue our study in \cite{FL} on viscosity solutions to a one-phase free boundary problem for the $p(x)$-Laplacian with non-zero right hand side. We first prove that viscosity solutions are locally Lipschitz continuous, which is the…

A new class of solutions of three-dimensional equations from the Boussinesq paradigm are considered. The corresponding profiles are not localized functions in the sense of the integrability of the square over an infinite domain. For the new…
These are the notes of a part of the PhD course Regularity for free boundary problems and for elliptic PDEs, held in Pavia in the spring of 2025. The aim is to provide a comprehensive and self-contained treatment of classical interior and…
We deal with the geometrical inverse problem of the shape reconstruction of cavities in a bounded linear isotropic medium by means of boundary data. The problem is addressed from the point of view of optimal control: the goal is to minimize…
