In this paper we prove the Lipschitz regularity for local minimizers of convex variational integrals of the form \[ \mathfrak{F}( v, \Omega )= \int_{\Omega} \! F(x, Dv(x)) \, dx, \] where, for ${n > 2}$ and $N\ge 1$, $\Omega$ is a bounded…

For a vectorial Bernoulli-type free boundary problem, with no sign assumption on the components, we prove that flatness of the free boundary implies $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity, as well-known in the scalar case \cite{AC,C2}. While in…

The optimal local Lipschitz regularity for scalar almost-minimizers of Alt-Caffarelli-type functionals $$ \mathcal{F}({v}; \Omega) = \int_\Omega \varphi(x,\left|\nabla v(x) \right|)+ \lambda \chi_{\{{v} >0\}} (x) \, \mathrm{d}x\,, $$ with…

In this paper we use min-max theory to study the existence free boundary minimal hypersurfaces (FBMHs) in compact manifolds with boundary $(M^{n+1}, \partial M, g)$, where $2\leq n\leq 6$. Under the assumption that $g$ is a local maximizer…
