Abstract

After introducing the concept of Maximal Regularity for parabolic problems and illustrating its usefulness for dealing with (fully) nonlinear problems, a brief introduction to Free Boundary Problems will be given. The focus will then shift to a class of Free Boundary Problems. Maximal regularity results as well as elliptic regularity results will be presented which are needed in the analysis of the Free Boundary Problems of interest.
