We study the regularity of the "free surface" in boundary obstacle problems. We show that near a non-degenerate point the free boundary is a $C^{1,\alpha}$ $(n-2)$-dimensional surface in $\real^{n-1}$.

Second order nonlinear eigenvalue problems are considered for which the spectrum is an interval. The boundary conditions are of Robin and Dirichlet type. The shape and the number of solutions are discussed by means of a phase plane…

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 study boundary regularity of maps from two-dimensional domains into manifolds which are critical with respect to a generic conformally invariant variational functional and which, at the boundary, enter perpendicularly into a support…

In this paper, we consider a vector-valued one-phase Bernoulli-type free boundary problem on a metric measure space $(X,d,\mu)$ with Riemannian curvature-dimension condition $RCD(K,N)$. We first prove the existence and the local Lipschitz…

The aim of this work is to study homogeneous stable solutions to the thin (or fractional) one-phase free boundary problem. The problem of classifying stable (or minimal) homogeneous solutions in dimensions $n\geq3$ is completely open. In…

We study nonlinear Neumann type boundary value problems related to ergodic phenomenas. The particularity of these problems is that the ergodic constant appears in the (possibly nonlinear) Neumann boundary conditions. We provide, for bounded…
