The theory of boundary regularity for $p$-harmonic functions is extended to unbounded open sets in complete metric spaces with a doubling measure supporting a $p$-Poincar\'e inequality, $1<p<\infty$. The barrier classification of regular…
In this article, we study the existence of insensitizing controls for a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation with dynamic boundary conditions. Here, we have a partially unknown data of the system, and the problem consists in finding…
We study the boundary behavior of any limit-interface arising from a sequence of general critical points of the Allen-Cahn energy functionals on a smooth bounded domain. Given any such sequence with uniform energy bounds, we prove that the…
The lubricated motion of an object near a deformable boundary presents striking subtleties arising from the coupling between the elasticity of the boundary and lubricated flow, including but not limited to the emergence of a lift force…
In a wide class of the so called Obstacle Problems of parabolic type it is shown how to improve the optimal regularity of the solution and as a consequence how to obtain space-time regularity of the corresponding free boundary.
These notes record and expand the lectures for the `Journ\'ees \'Equations aux D\'eriv\'ees Partielles 2018' held by the author during the week of June 11-15, 2018. The aim is to give a overview of the classical theory for the obstacle…
In this article, we establish a relationship between geometric quantities of a hypersurface restricted to its boundary, and the geometric quantities of its boundary as a hypersurface of the boundary of the ball. As a first application, we…
We consider the motion by mean curvature of an $n$-dimensional graph over a time-dependent domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, intersecting $\mathbb{R}^n$ at a constant angle. In the general case, we prove local existence for the corresponding…
Dynamical friction arises from the interaction of a perturber and the gravitational wake it excites in the ambient medium. We study the effects of the presence of a boundary on dynamical friction by studying analytically the interaction of…
We extend basic regularity of the free boundary of the obstacle problem to some classes of heterogeneous quasilinear elliptic operators with variable growth that includes, in particular, the $p(x)$-Laplacian. Under the assumption of…
The boundary conditions at the deformable interface between two contacting fluids are derived for the general case of the large-amplitude perturbations. The interface is modeled as perturbed free boundary that evolves in time, and the…
Motivated by the holographic correspondence, we study the boundary imprint of bulk lightcones in spacetimes with boundaries. These lightcones can be observed whenever a localized event takes place in the bulk. The associated boundary…
The main result of this paper is to prove that viscosity solutions to a parabolic free boundary problem with variable coefficients are Lipschitz continuous under the assumptions that the solution has a Lipschitz free boundary and satisfies…
Apparently conflicting phase-sensitive measurements of the order parameter symmetry in the high-T$_c$ superconductors may be explained by regions near surfaces in which the order parameter symmetry is different than in the bulk. These…
We investigate existence and regularity properties of one-phase free boundary graphs, in connection with the question of whether there exists a complete non-planar free boundary graph in high dimensions.
The complex interaction between turbulence and the free surface in boundary layer shear flow created by a vertical surface-piercing wall is considered. A laboratory-scale device was built that utilizes a surface-piercing stainless steel…
The electromagnetic interaction is characterised by discrete states for bound systems in contrast to continuous states for unbound systems. The difference merely arises because the characteristic equations do not exhibit the same behaviour…
This brief note addresses the free boundary problem arising from the steady two-dimensional seepage flow through a rectangular dam. The flow problem consists in finding the free boundary location, and the velocity and pressure fields. The…
We study the free boundary of the porous medium equation with nonlocal drifts in dimension one. Under the assumption that the initial data has super-quadratic growth at the free boundary, we show that the solution is smooth in space and…
We numerically analyze the effect of finite length of the superconducting regions on the low-energy spectrum, current-phase curves, and critical currents in junctions between trivial and topological superconductors. Such junctions are…
