We study the obstacle problem for parabolic operators of the type $\partial_t + L$, where $L$ is an elliptic integro-differential operator of order $2s$, such as $(-\Delta)^s$, in the supercritical regime $s \in (0,{1/2})$. The best result…
We analyse the obstacle problem for the nonlocal parabolic operator \[\partial_t u + (-\Delta)^{s} u - b \cdot \nabla u - \mathcal{I}u - ru,\] where $b\in\mathbb{R}^n$, $r\in\mathbb{R}$, and $\mathcal{I}$ is a nonlocal lower order diffusion…
In this paper we establish optimal regularity estimates and smoothness of free boundaries for nonlocal obstacle problems governed by a very general class of integro-differential operators with possibly singular kernels. More precisely, in…
We study the obstacle problem associated with the Kolmogorov operator $\Delta_v - \partial_t - v\cdot\nabla_x$, which arises from the theory of optimal control in Asian-American options pricing models. Our first main contribution is to…
We consider linear and obstacle problems driven by a nonlocal integral operator, for which nonlocal interactions are restricted to a ball of finite radius. These type of operators are used to model anomalous diffusion and, for a special…
In this paper we study the existence, the optimal regularity of solutions, and the regularity of the free boundary near the so-called \emph{regular points} in a thin obstacle problem that arises as the local extension of the obstacle…
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.
We study the higher regularity of free boundaries in obstacle problems for integro-differential operators. Our main result establishes that, once free boundaries are $C^{1,\alpha}$, then they are $C^\infty$. This completes the study of…
We investigate the obstacle problem for a class of nonlinear equations driven by nonlocal, possibly degenerate, integro-differential operators, whose model is the fractional $p$-Laplacian operator with measurable coefficients. Amongst other…
We study the higher regularity of free boundaries in obstacle problems for integro-differential operators with drift, like $(-\Delta)^s +b\cdot\nabla$, in the subcritical regime $s>\frac{1}{2}$. Our main result states that once the free…
We develop the regularity theory for solutions to space-time nonlocal equations driven by fractional powers of the heat operator $$(\partial_t-\Delta)^su(t,x)=f(t,x),\quad\hbox{for}~0<s<1.$$ This nonlocal equation of order $s$ in time and…
Regularity theory for diffusive operators is among the finest treasures of the modern mathematical sciences. It appears in several different fields, such as, differential geometry, topology, numerical analysis, dynamical systems,…
We prove existence, uniqueness and optimal regularity of solutions to the stationary obstacle problem defined by the fractional Laplacian operator with drift, in the subcritical regime. We localize our problem by considering a suitable…
We consider fully nonlinear obstacle-type problems of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} F(D^{2}u,x)=f(x) & \text{a.e. in}B_{1}\cap\Omega,|D^{2}u|\le K & \text{a.e. in}B_{1}\backslash\Omega, \end{cases} \end{equation*} where $\Omega$…
A general class of singular abstract Cauchy problems is considered which naturally arises in applications to certain Free Boundary Problems. Existence of an associated evolution operator characterizing its solutions is established and is…
We use a characterization of the fractional Laplacian as a Dirichlet to Neumann operator for an appropriate differential equation to study its obstacle problem. We write an equivalent characterization as a thin obstacle problem. In this way…
In this paper we establish for the first time local semiconvexity estimates for fully nonlinear equations and for obstacle problems driven by integro-differential operators with general kernels. Our proof is based on the Bernstein…
In this paper we extend previous results on the regularity of solutions of integro-differential parabolic equations. The kernels are non necessarily symmetric which could be interpreted as a non-local drift with the same order as the…
We prove existence of strong solutions to a family of some semilinear parabolic free boundary problems by means of elliptic regularization. Existence of solutions is obtained in two steps: we first show some uniform energy estimates and…
In the class of the so called non-dynamic Fractional Obstacle Problems of parabolic type, it is shown how to obtain higher regularity as well as optimal regularity of the space derivatives of the solution. Furthermore, at free boundary…
