Almost minimizers for a sublinear system with free boundary

Analysis of PDEs 2022-07-14 v1

Abstract

We study vector-valued almost minimizers of the energy functional D(u2+21+q(λ+(x)u+q+1+λ(x)uq+1))dx,0<q<1.\int_D\left(|\nabla\mathbf{u}|^2+\frac2{1+q}\left(\lambda_+(x)|\mathbf{u}^+|^{q+1}+\lambda_-(x)|\mathbf{u}^-|^{q+1}\right)\right)dx,\quad0<q<1. For H\"older continuous coefficients λ±(x)>0\lambda_\pm(x)>0, we take the epiperimetric inequality approach and prove the regularity for both almost minimizers and the set of "regular" free boundary points.
