The paper addresses the question if there exists a finite stopping time for an unforced motion of a yield stress fluid with free surface. A variation inequality formulation is deduced for the problem of yield stress fluid dynamics with a…
We study the zero-viscosity limit of free boundary Navier-Stokes equations with surface tension in $\mathbb{R}^3$ thus extending the work of Masmoudi and Rousset [1] to take surface tension into account. Due to the presence of boundary…
We study the instability of a thin membrane (of zero bending rigidity) to out-of-plane deflections, when the membrane is immersed in an inviscid fluid flow and sheds a trailing vortex-sheet wake. We solve the nonlinear eigenvalue problem…
This work is devoted to study the global behavior of viscous flows contained in a symmetric domain with complete slip boundary. In such scenario the boundary no longer provides friction and therefore the perturbation of angular velocity…

We establish the global well-posedness of the free boundary problem of the viscous pressureless and almost pressureless heat conductive flows in one space dimension. In both cases, arbitrarily large but smooth initial data is considered,…
We introduce a non-local $L^2$-gradient flow for the Willmore energy of immersed surfaces which preserves the isoperimetric ratio. For spherical initial data with energy below an explicit threshold, we show long-time existence and…

We give a new perspective on the existence of viscosity solutions for a stationary and a time-dependent first-order Hamilton-Jacobi equation. Following recent comparison principles, we work in a framework in which we consider a subsolution…
Here we continue the investigation of the M\"obius-invariant Willmore flow (MIWF), starting to move in arbitrary smooth and umbilic-free initial immersions $F_0$ which map some fixed compact torus $\Sigma$ into $\mathbb{R}^n$ respectively…
We investigate a Hele-Shaw type free boundary problem in one spatial dimension, where heterogeneities appear both on the free boundary and within the interior of the positivity set. Our contributions are twofold. First, we establish…
We revisit the question of existence and regularity of minimizers to weighted least gradient problems on a fixed bounded domain, subject to a Dirichlet boundary condition, in the case where the boundary data is continuous and the weight…
In this paper, we prove uniform curvature estimates for immersed stable free boundary minimal hypersurfaces which satisfy a uniform area bound. Our result is a natural generalization of the celebrated Schoen-Simon-Yau interior curvature…
In this paper we first introduce quermassintegrals for free boundary hypersurfaces in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean unit ball. Then we solve some related isoperimetric type problems for convex free boundary hypersurfaces, which lead to…

We study a free boundary problem arising from the theory of thermal insulation. The outstanding feature of this set optimization problem is that the boundary of the set being optimized is not a level surface of a harmonic function, but…
We study the stationary nonhomogeneous Navier--Stokes problem in a two dimensional symmetric domain with a semi-infinite outlet (for instance, either parabo-\\loidal or channel-like). Under the symmetry assumptions on the domain, boundary…
