Some geometric and analytic properties of solutions of Bernoulli free-boundary problems (Q2470871): Difference between revisions

The author investigates some properties of solutions of Bernoulli free boundary problems. A Bernoulli free boundary problem is one of finding domains in the plane on which a harmonic function simultaneously satisfies linear homogeneous Dirichlet and inhomogeneous Neumann boundary conditions. For a general class of Bernoulli problems, it is proved that any free boundary, possibly with many singularities, is the graph of a function. The convexity and the monotonicity properties of the free boundaries are also studied.
