Specifically, this happens at all points where the interface is trapped between two planes which are sufficiently close together. The proof combines ideas introduced by Ambrosio, Fusco, and Pallara for the Mumford-Shah functional with new arguments specific to the problem considered.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-11-18T20:53:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35B65", "35R35", "49N60" ], "keywords": [ "free boundary problem", "flat implies smooth", "thermal insulation", "mumford-shah functional", "arguments specific" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151105949K" } } }
