Free Boundary Problems in Material Science

Free boundary problems naturally arise in a variety of models from material science, particularly in connection with phase transitions and interfacial phenomena. In this talk, we discuss a class of variational problems that lead to singular PDEs in heterogeneous and irregular media. We focus on models whose intrinsic singularities are shaped by the medium itself, so that variations in the underlying structure directly influence the geometric behavior of solutions in a highly nonlinear fashion. On the analytical side, this leads to the development of a layered regularity theory, designed to remain robust across different regimes. In more structured settings, we establish $C^{1,\alpha}$-regularity of the free boundary, showing how increased organization of the medium is reflected in the qualitative behavior of solutions and their interfaces.

Martingale Hardy Spaces and Summability of One-Dimensional Vilenkin-Fourier Series

The development of the theory of martingale Hardy spaces has been strongly influenced by the classical theory. Because of this it is inevitable to compare results of this theory to those on classical Hardy spaces and during the decades this new direction was developing in this way and many similarities between these theories have already been found. But nowadays a lot of new results were obtained in the theory of martingale Hardy spaces which are new in classical case.

This lecture is devoted to review theory of martingale Hardy spaces. In particular, we give atomic decomposition of these spaces and show how this theorem simplify the proofs of boundedness of any sub-linear operators on these spaces. For the illustration of bounded operators on the martingale Hardy spaces we define Vilenkin groups and their characters which are called Vilenkin functions. We also define Fourier series with respect to Vilenkin system and maximal operators related to these operators. Moreover, we define modulus of continuity in martingale Hardy spaces and derive necessary and sufficient conditions in the terms of modulus of continuity such that partial sums with respect to one Vilenkin-Fourier series converge in $H^p$ norm. We also investigate classical Hardy spaces, modulus of continuity in these spaces and present one to one analogues of these results for partial sums in this classical case.

At the end of this presentation we state some open problem how to generate these two similar results for Hardy spaces on some locally compact Abelian groups and partial sums with respect to character functions of these groups. Moreover, we also state similar open problems for variable martingale Hardy spaces. Finally, we will choose opposite approach and will try to state and investigate results for partial sums of the two-dimensional Fourier series in martingale Hardy spaces for classical case of Hardy spaces.
