Structure and regularity of the singular set in the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian (Q2280495)

The paper is concerned with the obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian \[ \left\{\begin{array}{l} \min\,\{u-\varphi,\,(-\Delta)^su\}=0,\text{ in }\mathbb{R}^n,\\ \displaystyle\lim_{|x|\to\infty}u(x)=0,\end{array}\right.\tag{1} \] where \(\varphi:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}\) is a given smooth function (called the obstacle), and the unknown function \(u\) is defined in \(\mathbb{R}^n\). By constructiong new monotonicity formulas of Monneau-type, the authors study the complete structure and regularity of the singular part of the free boundary in problem \((1)\).
