Summary: The study examines the regularity of the free boundary for the Signorini problem in Rn+1 and the structure of degenerate points. It is found that, despite the potential for large sets of non-regular points, the set of degenerate points is typically small. This work presents new insights into the characteristics of free boundaries with degenerate points.

Summary: Building upon recent results, this paper provides a thorough description of the free boundary for solutions to the fractional obstacle problem in Rn+1 with obstacle function phi. If phi is analytic, results are similar to the zero obstacle case with local finiteness, rectifiability, and classification of frequencies and blowups. If phi is an element of Ck+1 (R-n), k >= 2, results hold for distinguished subsets of points with specific contact with the obstacle function.

Summary: This study focuses on the properties of harmonic measure in semi-uniform domains, removing the John condition and providing alternative estimates for harmonic measure in nontangentially accessible domains. It also explores the relationship between semi-uniform domains with uniformly rectifiable boundary and the A(infinity)-property of harmonic measure, classifying geometrically all domains for which this property holds.

Summary: In this paper, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for a graphical strip in the Heisenberg group to be area-minimizing in a specific region. We prove the necessity of our condition by introducing a family of deformations of graphical strips based on a varying vertical curve. Furthermore, we demonstrate the sufficiency of our condition by showing that strips satisfying the condition have monotone epigraphs. We also use this condition to prove that any area-minimizing ruled entire intrinsic graph in the Heisenberg group is a vertical plane and to find a boundary curve that can be filled with uncountably many area-minimizing surfaces.

Summary: This study establishes a partial rectifiability result for the free boundary of a k-varifold V, by refining a theorem of Grater and Jost and showing properties of the first variation and density of V. It is proven that under certain assumptions, the part of the first variation of V with positive and finite (k - 1)-density is (k - 1)-rectifiable.

Summary: In this paper, we study the geometric properties of the set partial differential {x ∈ R(1)Ω:u(x)>0} for non-negative minimizers of the functional J(u) = p |backward difference u|p+q(u+)γ+hu dx over Ω K, where Ω ⊂Rn(n≥2) is an open bounded domain, p ∈ (1,+∞) and γ ∈ (0, 1] are constants, u+ is the positive part of u, and partial differential {x ∈ Ω:u(x)>0} is the so-called free boundary. The non-degeneracy of non-negative minimizers near the free boundary is established using the comparison principle of p-Laplacian equations, followed by the proof of the local porosity of the free boundary.

Summary: This study addresses the paradox of abnormal frequencies in the free vibration of nonlocal cantilever beams within the framework of nonlocal strain gradient theory. By updating the inconsistencies of reported boundary conditions and proposing a method for calibrating size-effect parameters, the numerical results demonstrate the model's capability in capturing the size-dependent mechanical properties of materials, whether exhibiting stiffness-hardening or stiffness-softening effects.

Summary: The study of Bernoulli's free boundary problem involves elliptic and hyperbolic solutions, with the former being stable and tractable, and the latter being unstable and less understood. By introducing a new implicit function theorem and solving non-local geometric flows, the existence of hyperbolic and elliptic solutions is addressed by clarifying the spectral structure of the linearized operator through harmonic analysis.

Summary: This paper establishes regularities for the free boundary problem in Orlicz spaces, including continuity of minimizers in subcritical cases, growth rates near the free boundary for non-negative minimizers, and local Lipschitz continuity of non-negative minimizers under natural growth conditions. These results are new even for the free boundary problems of p-Laplacian.

Summary: In this paper, the rectifiability of an Ahlfors regular set of arbitrary codimension is characterized by analyzing the behavior of a regularized distance function in the complement of the set. A certain version of the Riesz transform characterization of rectifiability for lower-dimensional sets is established. Additionally, a special situation is uncovered where the regularized distance itself is a solution to a degenerate elliptic operator in the complement of the set E. This leads to precise computation of the harmonic measure of sets associated with this degenerate operator, showing a contrast from the usual setting of codimension 1.

Summary: The study focuses on the one-phase free boundary problem related to minimizing weighted Dirichlet energy and the area of the positivity set of a function. The research demonstrates full regularity of the free boundary in certain dimensions, almost everywhere regularity in arbitrary dimensions, and provides estimates on the singular set of the free boundary. The results are applicable across a range of relevant weights and present a novel approach distinct from standard methods.

Summary: The paper investigates the relationship between linear optimization degree and geometric structure. By analyzing the geometric structure of the conormal variety of an affine variety, the Chern-Mather classes of the given variety can be completely determined. Additionally, the paper shows that these bidegrees coincide with the linear optimization degrees of generic affine sections.

Summary: In this paper, we construct a duality functor in the category of continuous representations to study the Lie superalgebra E(4, 4). By constructing a specific type of Lie conformal superalgebra, we obtain that E(4, 4) is its annihilation algebra. Furthermore, we also obtain an explicit realization of E(4, 4) on a supermanifold in the process of studying.

Summary: This article discusses Fokker-Planck equations driven by Levy processes in the entire Euclidean space, under the influence of confining drifts, similar to the classical Ornstein-Ulhenbeck model. A new PDE method is introduced to obtain exponential or sub-exponential decay rates of zero average solutions as time goes to infinity, under certain diffusivity conditions on the Levy process, including the fractional Laplace operator as a model example. The approach relies on long-time oscillation estimates of the adjoint problem and applies to both local and nonlocal diffusions, as well as strongly or weakly confining drifts.

We discuss the equivalence of free billiards and central force problems, as well as the correspondence between integrable Hooke-Kepler billiards. We also investigate the integrability of Kepler billiards and Stark billiards, and the relationship between billiard systems and Euler's two-center problems.

Summary: In this study, we prove new results in generalised Harish-Chandra theory by providing a description of the Brauer-Lusztig blocks using the p-adic cohomology of Deligne-Lusztig varieties. We then propose new conjectures for finite reductive groups by considering geometric analogues of the p-local structures. Our conjectures coincide with the counting conjectures for large primes, thanks to a connection established between p-structures and their geometric counterparts. Finally, we simplify our conjectures by reducing them to the verification of Clifford theoretic properties.
