Free Boundary Problem
David E. Tepper · SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis · 1974
Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a doubly connected region in the complex plane limited by the infinite point and a convex set $\Gamma $. If $\lambda > 0$, then we study the existence, uniqueness and geometry of annuli $\omega \subset \mathcal{D}$ having $\Gamma $ as one boundary component and another boundary component $\gamma $, such that there exists a harmonic function V in $\omega $ satisfying : (a) $V = 0$ on $\Gamma $, (b) $V = 1$ on $\gamma $\ and (c) $| \operatorname{grad}V | = \lambda $ on $\gamma $.
