A semi-smooth Newton method for solving elliptic equations with gradient constraints
Semi-smooth Newton methods for elliptic equations with gradient constraints are investigated. The one- and multi-dimensional cases are treated separately. Numerical examples illustrate the approach and as well as structural features of the solution.

A shape optimization approach for a class of free boundary problems of Bernoulli type
We are interested in an optimal shape design formulation for a class of free boundary problems of Bernoulli type. We show the existence of the optimal solution of this problem by proving continuity of the solution of the state problem with respect to the domain. The main tools in establishing such a continuity are a result concerning uniform continuity of the trace operator with respect to the domain and a recent result on the uniform Poincaré inequality for variable domains.

A singular equation with positive and free boundary solutions.
Para 0 < β < 1 consideramos la ecuación -Δu = χ{u > 0} (-u-β + λf(x, u)) en Ω con condición de borde tipo Dirichlet. Esta ecuación posee una solución maximal uλ ≥ 0 para todo λ > 0. Si λ es menor que una cierta constante λ*, uλ se anula en el interior del dominio creando una frontera libre, y para λ > λ* esta solución es positiva en Ω y estable. Establecemos la regularidad de uλ incluso en presencia de una frontera libre. Para λ ≥ λ* la solución del problema...

A special finite element method based on component mode synthesis
The goal of our paper is to introduce basis functions for the finite element discretization of a second order linear elliptic operator with rough or highly oscillating coefficients. The proposed basis functions are inspired by the classic idea of component mode synthesis and exploit an orthogonal decomposition of the trial subspace to minimize the energy. Numerical experiments illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed basis functions.
