In this lecture I report on essentially two results for overdetermined boundary value problems and the <i>p</i>-Laplace operator. The first one is joint work with H. Shahgholian on Bernoulli type free boundary problems that model for instance galvanization processes. For this family of problems the limits <i>p</i> <FONT SIZE='3' FACE='Symbol'>® ¥</FONT> and<i>p</i> <FONT SIZE='3' FACE='Symbol'>® </FONT> 1 lead to interesting analytical and surprising geometric questions. In particular for the case <i>p</i> <FONT SIZE='3' FACE='Symbol'>® </FONT> 1 I add more recent results, that are not contained in [12]. The second one is joint work with F. Gazzola and I. Fragala [6]. It provides an alternative and more geometric proof of Serrin's seminal symmetry result for positive solutions to overdetermined boundary value problems. As a byproduct I give an analytical proof for the geometric statement that a closed plane curve ofcurvature not exceeding <i>K</i> must enclose a disk of radius 1/<i>K</i>. |
