We consider overdetermined problems of Serrins type in convex cones for (possibly) degenerate operators in the Euclidean space as well as for a suitable generalization to space forms. We prove rigidity results by showing that the existence of a solution implies that the domain is a spherical sector.
In this paper we consider Serrins overdetermined problems in warped product manifolds and we prove Serrins type rigidity results by using the P-function approach introduced by Weinberger.
In this paper, we prove the existence of nontrivial unbounded domains $Omegasubsetmathbb{R}^{n+1},ngeq1$, bifurcating from the straight cylinder $Btimesmathbb{R}$ (where $B$ is the unit ball of $mathbb{R}^n$), such that the overdetermined elliptic pr
oblem begin{equation*} begin{cases} Delta u +f(u)=0 &mbox{in $Omega$, } u=0 &mbox{on $partialOmega$, } partial_{ u} u=mbox{constant} &mbox{on $partialOmega$, } end{cases} end{equation*} has a positive bounded solution. We will prove such result for a very general class of functions $f: [0, +infty) to mathbb{R}$. Roughly speaking, we only ask that the Dirichlet problem in $B$ admits a nondegenerate solution. The proof uses a local bifurcation argument.
We obtain the radial symmetry of the solution to a partially overdetermined boundary value problem in a convex cone in space forms by using the maximum principle for a suitable subharmonic function $P$ and integral identities. In dimension $2$, we pr
ove Serrin-type results for partially overdetermined problems outside a convex cone. Furthermore, we obtain a Rellich identity for an eigenvalue problem with mixed boundary conditions in a cone.
Given $n geq 2$ and $1<p<n$, we consider the critical $p$-Laplacian equation $Delta_p u + u^{p^*-1}=0$, which corresponds to critical points of the Sobolev inequality. Exploiting the moving planes method, it has been recently shown that positive solu
tions in the whole space are classified. Since the moving plane method strongly relies on the symmetries of the equation and the domain, in this paper we provide a new approach to this Liouville-type problem that allows us to give a complete classification of solutions in an anisotropic setting. More precisely, we characterize solutions to the critical $p$-Laplacian equation induced by a smooth norm inside any convex cone. In addition, using optimal transport, we prove a general class of (weighted) anisotropic Sobolev inequalities inside arbitrary convex cones.
In this paper, we study a partially overdetermined mixed boundary value problem in a half ball. We prove that a domain in which this partially overdetermined problem admits a solution if and only if the domain is a spherical cap intersecting $ss^{n-1
}$ orthogonally. As an application, we show a stationary point for a partially torsional rigidity under a volume constraint must be a spherical cap.
