Obstacle Problems and Free Boundaries: an Overview
Free boundary problems are those described by PDEs that exhibit a priori unknown (free) interfaces or boundaries. These problems appear in Physics, Probability, Biology, Finance, or Industry, and the study of solutions and free boundaries uses methods from PDEs, Calculus of Variations, Geometric Measure Theory, and Harmonic Analysis. The most important mathematical challenge in this context is ...
متن کاملFree boundaries in optimal transport and Monge-Ampère obstacle problems
Given compactly supported 0 ≤ f, g ∈ L1(R), the problem of transporting a fraction m ≤ min{‖f‖L1 , ‖g‖L1} of the mass of f onto g as cheaply as possible is considered, where cost per unit mass transported is given by a cost function c, typically quadratic c(x,y) = |x − y|/2. This question is shown to be equivalent to a double obstacle problem for the Monge-Ampère equation, for which sufficient ...
متن کاملConvergence of free boundaries in discrete obstacle problems
We show that a piecewise linear finite element approximation of the obstacle problem gives an approximate free boundary converges, in an appropriate distance, to the free boundary of the continuous problemunder a stability condition on the obstacle.
متن کاملObstacle problems for integro-differential operators: regularity of solutions and free boundaries
We study the obstacle problem for integro-differential operators of order 2s, with s ∈ (0, 1). Our main result establishes that the free boundary is C and u ∈ C near all regular points. Namely, we prove the following dichotomy at all free boundary points x0 ∈ ∂{u = φ}: (i) either u(x)− φ(x) = c d(x) + o(|x− x0|) for some c > 0, (ii) or u(x)− φ(x) = o(|x− x0|), where d is the distance to the con...
متن کاملAn overview of unconstrained free boundary problems.
In this paper, we present a survey concerning unconstrained free boundary problems of type [Formula: see text] where B1 is the unit ball, Ω is an unknown open set, F(1) and F(2) are elliptic operators (admitting regular solutions), and [Formula: see text] is a functions space to be specified in each case. Our main objective is to discuss a unifying approach to the optimal regularity of solution...
