Tangential touch between free and fixed boundaries for the fully nonlinear Alt-Phillips problem

Analysis of PDEs 2025-09-03 v1

Abstract

For the fully nonlinear Alt-Phillips problem with parameter γ(1,2)\gamma\in(1,2), we show that the free boundary intersects the fixed boundary tangentially where the Dirichlet data vanish. For this range of γ\gamma, this result is new even when the operator is the Laplacian.
