  • The Bernstein Theorem in Higher Dimensions
    The Bernstein Theorem in Higher Dimensions Umberto Massari,∗ Mario Mirandayand Michele Miranda Jr ∗ Dedicated to the memory of Guido Stampacchia Abstract. { In this work we have reconsidered the famous paper of Bombieri, De Gior- gi and Giusti [4] and, thanks to the software Mathematicar we made it possible for anybody to control the difficult computations. 1. { Introduction On April 27th, 1978, Guido Stampacchia died in Paris. His coffin arrived to Pisa for the Adieu Ceremonial, in the Courtyard of Scuola Normale. That day I was there, and I could not meet Ennio De Giorgi. The apparent absence of him seemed impossible to me, considering the lasting and close friendship between Ennio and Guido. Many years later, Sergio Spagnolo told me that Ennio remained, the whole duration of the Ceremonial, hidden in a corner of the building. The modesty did not permit Ennio to show around his sorrow. Guido had been a putative father for Ennio; he protected a younger and precious man, as long as he could. In March 1961, De Giorgi was invited to Paris for giving two talks. Stampacchia wanted to join him in the trip. There exists a beautiful picture of the two friends, on the Rive Gauche with N^otreDame behind them. A French mathematician told me that Stampacchia in Paris seemed to be the Assistant Professor of De Giorgi. He was wrong. Stampacchia had never been an academic servant. He could be said a devotee of Mathematics. In 1955 Guido pushed Ennio into studying the XIX Hilbert's Problem [5]. And, in 1968 Guido pushed Enrico Bombieri to work with De Giorgi.

The problems considered have in common that they have some sort of two-phase behaviour. In papers I-III we study the interior regularity of different two-phase free bound- ary problems. Paper I is mainly concerned with the regularity properties of the free boundary, while in papers II and III we devote our study to the regularity of the function, but as a by-product we obtain some partial regularity of the free boundary. The problem considered in paper IV has a somewhat different nature. Here we are interested in certain approximations of the obstacle problem. Two major differences are that we study regularity properties close to the fixed boundary and that the problem converges to a one-phase free boundary problem. iv Sammanfattning Denna avhandling består av fyra artiklar i vilka vi studerar problem relaterade till frirandsproblem med två faser. Gemensamt för alla artiklar är att den nivåyta som studeras utgör varken ett minimum eller ett maximum för funktionen i fråga.

    OPTIMAL REGULARITY OF SOLUTIONS TO NO-SIGN OBSTACLE-TYPE PROBLEMS FOR THE SUB-LAPLACIAN VALENTINO MAGNANI AND ANDREAS MINNE 1,1 Abstract. We establish the optimal CH interior regularity of solutions to ∆H u = fχ{u6=0}, where ∆H denotes the sub-Laplacian operator in a stratified group. We assume the 1,1 weakest regularity condition on f, namely the group convolution f Γ is CH , where Γ is 1,1 ∗ the fundamental solution of ∆H . The CH regularity is understood in the sense of Folland and Stein. In the classical Euclidean setting, the first seeds of the above problem are already present in the 1991 paper of Sakai and are also related to quadrature domains. As a special instance of our results, when u is nonnegative and satisfies the above equation 1,1 we recover the CH regularity of solutions to the obstacle problem in stratified groups, that was previously established by Danielli, Garofalo and Salsa. Our regularity result is sharp: it can be seen as the subelliptic counterpart of the C1,1 regularity result due to Andersson, Lindgren and Shahgholian. 1. Introduction The main question we consider in this paper is the optimal interior regularity of distri- butional solutions to the no-sign obstacle-type problem (1.1) ∆H u = fχ{u6=0} on some domain of a stratified group G, see Section 2 for notation and terminology. In the Euclidean setting, the obstacle problem is among the most studied topics in the arXiv:1907.02372v2 [math.AP] 27 Jun 2021 field of Free Boundary Problems, see for instance the monographs by Rodrigues [Rod87], Friedman [Fri88], and Petrosyan et al.

  • Archivio Mauro Picone
    ARCHIVIO MAURO PICONE INVENTARIO a cura di Paola Cagiano de Azevedo Roma 2016 Mauro Picone (Palermo, 2 maggio 1885 –Roma, 11 aprile 1977) è stato un matematico italiano, fondatore e direttore dell’Istituto per le Applicazioni del Calcolo (IAC). Originario della Sicilia lasciò con la famiglia l’Isola nel 1889, per trasferirsi prima ad Arezzo e successivamente a Parma. Nel 1903 fu ammesso alla Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa dove frequenta le lezioni di Ulisse Dini e Luigi Bianchi e e dove conobbe Eugenio Lia Levi. Si laureò nel 1907 e nel 1913 si trasferì al Politecnico di Torino come assistente di Meccanica razionale e di Analisi con Guido Fubini. Restò a Torino fino alla prima guerra. Dopo l'impegno bellico, nel 1919 viene chiamato quale professore incaricato di Analisi a Catania, dove ritorna nel 1921 come titolare (dopo una breve parentesi a Cagliari). Successivamente, dopo una breve permanenza a Pisa nel 1924-25, passa prima a Napoli e quindi nel 1932 a Roma, dove resterà fino al collocamento a riposo nel 1960. L’esperienza bellica fu molto importante per Mauro Picone; per le sue conoscenze matematiche, fu infatti incaricato dal comandante Federico Baistrocchi, di calcolare le tavole di tiro per l'utilizzo delle artiglierie pesanti nelle zone montane. Prima di allora, le uniche tavole di tiro disponibili, quelle per zone pianeggianti, erano del tutto inadeguate alle nuove alture e causavano anche gravi danni (si pensi al “fuoco amico Picone ottenne i risultati richiesti adeguando le vecchie tavole di Francesco Siacci (1839-1907) alle complesse condizioni geografiche del Trentino. Per questi meriti nel 1917 fu promosso capitano d’artiglieria e nel 1918 gli fu conferita la Croce di guerra, seguita dalla Croix de guerre francese.
