In this paper we analyze the singular set in the Stefan problem and prove the following results: - The singular set has parabolic Hausdorff dimension at most $n-1$. - The solution admits a $C^\infty$-expansion at all singular points, up to…
We study the singular part of the free boundary in the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian, \ $\min\bigl\{(-\Delta)^su,\,u-\varphi\bigr\}=0$ in $\mathbb R^n$, for general obstacles $\varphi$. Our main result establishes the…
We show that the singular set $\Sigma$ in the classical obstacle problem can be locally covered by a $C^\infty$ hypersurface, up to an "exceptional" set $E$, which has Hausdorff dimension at most $n-2$ (countable, in the $n=2$ case).…
In this paper we show that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of singular pairs is 4/3. We also show that the action of diag(e^t,e^t,e^{-2t}) on SL(3,R)/SL(3,Z) admits divergent trajectories that exit to infinity at arbitrarily slow…
The aim of this note is to investigate the size of the singular set of a general class of free interface problems. We show porosity of the singular set, obtaining as a corollary that both its Hausdorff and Minkowski dimensions are strictly…
In this paper we introduce and study a certain intricate Cantor-like set $C$ contained in unit interval. Our main result is to show that the set $C$ itself, as well as the set of dissipative points within $C$, both have Hausdorff dimension…
We prove partial regularity for minimizers to elasticity type energies in the nonlinear framework {with $p$-growth, $p>1$,} in dimension $n\geq 3$. It is an open problem in such a setting either to establish full regularity or to provide…
The study of the geometry of $n$-uniform measures in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ has been an important question in many fields of analysis since Preiss' seminal proof of the rectifiability of measures with positive and finite density. The…
We prove new bounds on the dimensions of distance sets and pinned distance sets of planar sets. Among other results, we show that if $A\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ is a Borel set of Hausdorff dimension $s>1$, then its distance set has Hausdorff…
We study the free boundary of solutions to the parabolic obstacle problem with fully nonlinear diffusion. We show that the free boundary splits into a regular and a singular part: near regular points the free boundary is $C^\infty$ in space…
We study the singular set in the thin obstacle problem for degenerate parabolic equations with weight $|y|^a$ for $a \in (-1,1)$. Such problem arises as the local extension of the obstacle problem for the fractional heat operator…
We study the parabolic obstacle problem $$\lap u-u_t=f\chi_{\{u>0\}}, \quad u\geq 0,\quad f\in L^p \quad \mbox{with}\quad f(0)=1$$ and obtain two monotonicity formulae, one that applies for general free boundary points and one for singular…
Building upon the recent results in \cite{FoSp17} we provide a thorough description of the free boundary for the fractional obstacle problem in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with obstacle function $\varphi$ (suitably smooth and decaying fast at…
In this work, we consider the singular set in the thin obstacle problem with weight $|x_{n+1}|^a$ for $a\in (-1, 1)$, which arises as the local extension of the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian (a non-local problem). We develop…
In this paper, we study the singular set of 3-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations. Under the condition$\frac{1}{R^{\frac{3s}{q}+2-s}}\int^{R^{2}}_{0}(\int_{B_{R}}|u|^{q}dx)^{\frac{s}{q}}ds <C,$ for $(q,s)\in\{(2,5),(5,2)\},$ we use the…
We study the regularity of weak solutions to a certain class of second order parabolic system under the only assumption of continuous coefficients. By using the $A-$caloric approximation argument, we claim that the weak solution $u$ to such…
In this paper, we prove estimates on the dimension of the singular part of the free boundary for solutions to shape optimization problems with measure constraints. The focus is on the heat conduction problem studied by Aguilera, Caffarelli,…
We study a one-phase Bernoulli free boundary problem with weight function admitting a discontinuity along a smooth jump interface. In any dimension $N\ge 2$, we show the $C^{1, \alpha}$ regularity of the free boundary outside of a singular…
We provide a thorough description of the free boundary for the lower dimensional obstacle problem in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ up to sets of null $\mathcal{H}^{n-1}$ measure. In particular, we prove (i) local finiteness of the $(n-1)$-dimensional…
