For an open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ with an Ahlfors regular boundary, solvability of the Dirichlet problem for Laplaces equation, with boundary data in $L^{p}$ for some $p<\infty$, is equivalent to quantitative, scale invariant absolute continuity (more precisely, the weak- $A_{\infty}$ property) of harmonic measure with respect to surface measure on $\partial \Omega$. A similar statement is true in the caloric setting. Thus, it is of interest to find geometric criteria which characterize the open sets for which such absolute continuity (hence also solvability) holds. Recently, this has been done in the harmonic case. In this talk, we shall discuss recent progress in the caloric setting, in which we show that quantitative absolute continuity of caloric measure, with respect to surface measure on the parabolic Ahlfors regular (lateral) boundary $\Sigma$, implies parabolic uniform rectifiability of $\Sigma$. We observe that this result may be viewed as the solution of a certain 1-phase free boundary problem. This is joint work with S. Bortz, J. M. Martell and K. Nyström.[-]

In this talk we deal with the regularity of optimal sets for a shape optimization problem involving a combination
of eigenvalues, under a fixed volume constraints. As a model problem, consider
\[
\min\Big\{\lambda_1(\Omega)+\dots+\lambda_k(\Omega)\ :\ \Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d,\ \text{open}\ ,\ |\Omega|=1\Big\},
\]
where $\langle_i(\cdot)$ denotes the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplacian and $|\cdot|$ the $d$-dimensional Lebesgue measure.
We prove that any minimizer $_{opt}$ has a regular part of the topological boundary which is relatively open and
$C^{\infty}$ and that the singular part has Hausdorff dimension smaller than $d-d^*$, where $d^*\geq 5$ is the minimal
dimension allowing the existence of minimal conic solutions to the blow-up problem.

We mainly use techniques from the theory of free boundary problems, which have to be properly extended to the case of
vector-valued functions: nondegeneracy property, Weiss-like monotonicity formulas with area term; finally through the
properties of non tangentially accessible domains we shall be in a position to exploit the ''viscosity'' approach recently proposed by De Silva.

This is a joint work with Dario Mazzoleni and Bozhidar Velichkov.[-]

The purpose of this talk is to present two 1d congestion models: a soft congestion model with a singular pressure, and a hard congestion model in which the dynamic is different in the congested and non-congested zone (incompressible vs. compressible dynamic). The hard congested model is the limit of the soft one as the parameter within the singular presure vanishes.
For each model, we prove the existence of traveling waves, and we study their stability. This is a joint work with Charlotte Perrin.[-]
