This paper is a continuation of the work in \cite{kimzhang2024} concerning Hele-Shaw flow with both drift and source terms. We prove that, in a local neighborhood, if the free boundary is Lipschitz continuous with a sufficiently small…
Consider a lipid membrane with a free exposed edge. The energy describing this membrane is quadratic in the extrinsic curvature of its geometry; that describing the edge is proportional to its length. In this note we determine the boundary…
For a one-phase free boundary problem involving a fractional Laplacian, we prove that "flat free boundaries" are $C^{1,\alpha}$. We recover the regularity results of Caffarelli for viscosity solutions of the classical Bernoulli-type free…
We study the extremal problem that relates the spectral radius $\lambda (G)$ of an $F$-free graph $G$ with its number of edges. Firstly, we prove that for any graph $F$ with chromatic number $\chi (F)=r+1\ge 3$, if $G$ is an $F$-free graph…
