Hölder stability for Serrin’s overdetermined problem
2015
In a bounded domain \(\varOmega \), we consider a positive solution of the problem \(\Delta u+f(u)=0\) in \(\varOmega \), \(u=0\) on \(\partial \varOmega \), where \(f:\mathbb {R}\rightarrow \mathbb {R}\) is a locally Lipschitz continuous function. Under sufficient conditions on \(\varOmega \) (for instance, if \(\varOmega \) is convex), we show that \(\partial \varOmega \) is contained in a spherical annulus of radii \(r_i 0\) and \(\tau \in (0,1]\). Here, \([u_\nu ]_{\partial \varOmega }\) is the Lipschitz seminorm on \(\partial \varOmega \) of the normal derivative of u. This result improves to Holder stability the logarithmic estimate obtained in Aftalion et al. (Adv Differ Equ 4:907–93…
A tour of the theory of absolutely minimizing functions

A detailed analysis of the class of absolutely minimizing functions in Euclidean spaces and the relationship to the infinity Laplace equation
Compactness of a conformal boundary of the Euclidean unit ball
2011
We study conformal metrics d‰ on the Euclidean unit ball B n : We assume that either the density ‰ associated with the metric d‰ satisfies a logarithmic volume growth condition for small balls or that ‰ satisfies a Harnack inequality and a suitable sub-Euclidean volume growth condition. We prove that the ‰-boundary @‰ B n is homeomorphic to S ni1 if and only if @‰ B n is compact. In the planar case, the compactness of @‰ B 2 is further equivalent to local connectivity of the ‰-boundary together with the boundedness of (B 2 ;d‰):
Local regularity for time-dependent tug-of-war games with varying probabilities
2016
We study local regularity properties of value functions of time-dependent tug-of-war games. For games with constant probabilities we get local Lipschitz continuity. For more general games with probabilities depending on space and time we obtain H\"older and Harnack estimates. The games have a connection to the normalized $p(x,t)$-parabolic equation $(n+p(x,t))u_t=\Delta u+(p(x,t)-2) \Delta_{\infty}^N u$.
The boundary Harnack inequality for infinity harmonic functions in Lipschitz domains satisfying the interior ball condition
2008
Abstract In this note, we give a short proof for the boundary Harnack inequality for infinity harmonic functions in a Lipschitz domain satisfying the interior ball condition. Our argument relies on the use of quasiminima and the notion of comparison with cones.
Harnack estimates for degenerate parabolic equations modeled on the subelliptic $p-$Laplacian
2014
Abstract We establish a Harnack inequality for a class of quasi-linear PDE modeled on the prototype ∂ t u = − ∑ i = 1 m X i ⁎ ( | X u | p − 2 X i u ) where p ⩾ 2 , X = ( X 1 , … , X m ) is a system of Lipschitz vector fields defined on a smooth manifold M endowed with a Borel measure μ, and X i ⁎ denotes the adjoint of X i with respect to μ. Our estimates are derived assuming that (i) the control distance d generated by X induces the same topology on M ; (ii) a doubling condition for the μ-measure of d-metric balls; and (iii) the validity of a Poincare inequality involving X and μ. Our results extend the recent work in [16] , [36] , to a more general setting including the model cases of (1)…
A Carleson type inequality for fully nonlinear elliptic equations with non-Lipschitz drift term
2017
This paper concerns the boundary behavior of solutions of certain fully nonlinear equations with a general drift term. We elaborate on the non-homogeneous generalized Harnack inequality proved by the second author in (Julin, ARMA -15), to prove a generalized Carleson estimate. We also prove boundary H\"older continuity and a boundary Harnack type inequality.
Removable sets for continuous solutions of quasilinear elliptic equations
2001
We show that sets of n − p + α ( p − 1 ) n-p+\alpha (p-1) Hausdorff measure zero are removable for α \alpha -Hölder continuous solutions to quasilinear elliptic equations similar to the p p -Laplacian. The result is optimal. We also treat larger sets in terms of a growth condition. In particular, our results apply to quasiregular mappings.
Regularity properties for quasiminimizers of a $(p,q)$-Dirichlet integral
2021
Using a variational approach we study interior regularity for quasiminimizers of a $(p,q)$-Dirichlet integral, as well as regularity results up to the boundary, in the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincar\'{e} inequality. For the interior regularity, we use De Giorgi type conditions to show that quasiminimizers are locally H\"{o}lder continuous and they satisfy Harnack inequality, the strong maximum principle, and Liouville's Theorem. Furthermore, we give a pointwise estimate near a boundary point, as well as a sufficient condition for H\"older continuity and a Wiener type regularity condition for continuity up to the boundary. Finally, we cons…
Harnack's inequality for p-harmonic functions via stochastic games
2013
We give a proof of asymptotic Lipschitz continuity of p-harmonious functions, that are tug-of-war game analogies of ordinary p-harmonic functions. This result is used to obtain a new proof of Lipsc...
