We study obstacle problems governed by two distinct types of diffusion operators involving interacting free boundaries. We obtain a somewhat surprising coupling property, leading to a comprehensive analysis of the free boundary. More…
In this work, we derive asymptotic interface models for an elastic Muskat free boundary problem describing Darcy flow beneath an elastic membrane. In a weakly nonlinear regime of small interface steepness, we obtain nonlocal evolution…
We study a free boundary problem on the lattice whose scaling limit is a harmonic free boundary problem with a discontinuous Hamiltonian. We find an explicit formula for the Hamiltonian, prove the solutions are unique, and prove that the…
The aim of this thesis is to derive new gradient estimates for parabolic equations. The gradient estimates found are independent of the regularity of the initial data. This allows us to prove the existence of solutions to problems that have…
We consider a system of elliptic equations, depending on a small parameter $\eps$, that models long-range segregation of populations. The diffusion is governed by the Laplacian. This system was previously investigated by Caffarelli,…

We show a result of maximal regularity in spaces of H\"older continuous function, concerning linear parabolic systems, with dynamic or Wentzell boundary conditions, with an elliptic diffusion term on the boundary.
We study the two-phase Muskat--Verigin free-boundary problem for elliptic equations with nonlinear sources. The existence of a smooth solution and a smooth free boundary is proved locally in time by applying the parabolic regularization of…
We will study a free boundary value problem driven by a source term which is quite {\it irregular}. In the process, we will establish a monotonicity result, and regularity of the solution.
We study higher critical points of the variational functional associated with a free boundary problem related to plasma confinement. Existence and regularity of minimizers in elliptic free boundary problems have already been studied…
We examine a free transmission problem driven by fully nonlinear elliptic operators. Since the transmission interface is determined endogeneously, our analysis is two-fold: we study the regularity of the solutions and some geometric…
We study a class of semilinear free boundary problems in which admissible functions $u$ have a topological constraint, or spanning condition, on their 1-level set. This constraint forces $\{u=1\}$, which is the free boundary, to behave like…
We provide a rigorous mathematical study of an asymptotic model describing Darcy flow with free boundary in a low amplitude/large wavelength approximation. In particular, we prove several well-posedness results in critical spaces.…
Charges associated with gauge symmetries are defined on boundaries of spacetimes. But these constructions typically involve divergent quantities when considering asymptotic boundaries. Different prescriptions exist to address this problem,…
This paper recalls a partial differential equations system, which is the linearization of a recognized fluid-elasticity interaction three-dimensional model. A collection of regularity results for the traces of the fluid variable on the…
We consider the stability of transonic contact discontinuity for the two-dimensional steady compressible Euler flows in a finitely long nozzle. This is the first work on the mixed-type problem of transonic flows across a contact…
We study a parabolic free boundary problem, arising from a model for the propagation of equi-diffusional premixed flames with high activation energy. If an initial data is compactly supported, then the solution vanishes in a finite time,…
In this paper we study the local behavior of solutions to some free boundary problems. We relate the theory of quasi-conformal maps to the regularity of the solutions to nonlinear thin-obstacle problems; we prove that the contact set is…
A singularly perturbed parabolic problem of convection-diffusion type with incompatible inflow boundary and initial conditions is examined. In the case of constant coefficients, a set of singular functions are identified which match certain…
