The paper proves monotonicity formulas for solutions in Carnot groups, resembling well-known formulas for standard Laplacian and heat equations.

For free boundary problems on Euclidean spaces, the monotonicity formulas of Alt-Caffarelli-Friedman and Caffarelli-Jerison-Kenig are cornerstones for the regularity theory as well as the existence theory. In this article we establish the analogs of these results for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on Riemannian manifold…

Consider the following coupled elliptic system of equations \begin{equation*} \label{} (-Δ)^s u_i = (u^2_1+\cdots+u^2_m)^{\frac{p-1}{2}} u_i \quad \text{in} \ \ \mathbb{R}^n , \end{equation*} where $0<s\le 2$, $p>1$, $m\ge1$, $u=(u_i)_{i=1}^m$ and $u_i:\mathbb R^n\to \mathbb R$. The qualitative behavior of solutions of…
