For a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ and $p \geq q \geq 2$, we establish quantified versions of the classical Friedrichs inequality $\|\nabla u\|_p^p - \lambda_1 \|u\|_q^p \geq 0$, $u \in W_0^{1,p}(\Omega)$, where $\lambda_1$ is a…

In this article we study a Bernoulli-type free boundary problem and generalize a work of Henrot and Shahgholian in \cite{HS1} to $\mathcal{A}$-harmonic PDEs. These are quasi-linear elliptic PDEs whose structure is modeled on the $p$-Laplace…

Serrin's symmetry theorem shows that the classical overdetermined torsion problem forces the domain to be a ball. Extending this rigidity statement to merely Lipschitz (and more generally rough) domains in the weak formulation has been a…

We study the regularity of the viscosity solution $u$ of the $\sigma_k$-Loewner-Nirenberg problem on a bounded smooth domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ for $k \geq 2$. It was known that $u$ is locally Lipschitz in $\Omega$. We prove…
