Hölder continuity of the gradient at a corner for the capillary problem and related results (Q1118751)

The author considers the regularity of solutions of capillary-type equations with prescribed contact angle \(\phi\) in two-dimensional domains with corners. L. Simon proved \(C^ 1\)-regularity at corners with angle \(\theta\in (0,\Pi)\), \(\theta >| 2\phi -\Pi |\). This result is improved to \(C^{1,\alpha}\)-regularity for some \(\alpha\). More general quasilinear differential equations and more general boundary conditions are treated here.
