Abstract:

We derive the quantitative modulus of continuity \[ \omega(r)=\left[ p+\ln \left( \frac{r_0}{r} \right) \right]^{-\alpha (n,p)}, \] which we conjecture to be optimal, for solutions of the $p$-degenerate two-phase Stefan problem. Even in the classical case $p=2$, this represents a twofold improvement with respect to the 1984 state-of-the-art result by DiBenedetto and Friedman (J. reine angew. Math., 1984), in the sense that we discard one logarithm iteration and obtain an explicit value for the exponent $\alpha (n,p)$.
