Regularity in the two-phase free boundary problems under non-standard growth conditions
In this paper, we prove several regularity results for the heterogeneous, two-phase free boundary problems $\mathcal {J}_γ(u)=\int_Ω\big(f(x,\nabla u)+λ_{+} (u^{+})^γ+λ_{-}(u^{-})^γ+gu\big)\text{d}x\rightarrow \text{min}$ under non-standard growth conditions. Included in such problems are heterogeneous jets and cavities of Prandtl-Batchelor type with $γ=0$, chemical reaction problems with $0<γ<1$, and obstacle type problems with $γ=1$. Our results hold not only in the degenerate case of $p> 2$ for $p-$Laplace equations, but also in the singular case of $1<p<2$, which are extensions of \cite{LdT}.
