Abstract: The Signorini problem for the Laplace operator is considered in a general polygonal domain. It is proved that the coincidence set consists of a finite number of boundary parts plus isolated points. The regularity of the solution is described. In particular, we show that the leading singularity is in general $r_i^{pi/(2alph{a}_i)}$ at transition points of Signorini to Dirichlet or Neumann conditions but $r_i^{pi/alph{a}_i}$ at kinks of the Signorini boundary, with $alph{a}_i$ being the internal angle of the domain at these critical points.
