Interior regularity for nonlocal minimal surfaces

Up to which dimension are $s$-minimal surfaces smooth for any $s$? Equivalently, up to which dimension are $s$-minimal cones flat for any $s$?

By [Savin-Valdinoci, 2013], it is known that these properties hold true in dimension 2. ...

On "small" homogeneities

Let $n\geq 2$, and let $\mathcal O_n$ denote the set of possible homogeneities in dimension $n$ for global solutions to the Signorini problem.

Let $n_0$ be the largest integer such that the set $\mathcal O_{n_0}$ is disjoint from the interval $(2,3)$. Find the best possible lower bound on $n_0$. ...

Discreteness of possible homogeneities

Let $n\geq 2$, and let $\mathcal O_n$ denote the set of possible homogeneities in dimension $n$ for global solutions to the Signorini problem.

Is it true that the set $\mathcal O_n\cap [0,L]$ is finite for any $L>0$? ...

Random walks governed by BS

Problem 4.

Are there rules for random walks that can result in BS, both in discrete or in its scaling limit?

The well-known Internal DLA is an example of random walks that results in the so-called Divisible sandpile, as done in the work of L. Levine [3], and Levine-Peres [4]. ...

Problem 3. Is there a boundary sandpile type process, leading to that the total mass of the system is being redistributed onto the combinatorial free boundary (possibly with a different background rules) which has a sphere as its scaling limit?

The limiting PDE of BS

Problem 2.

Assume the answer to Problem 1 is yes. Then, what would be the limiting PDE problem and what can be said about the geometry of the limiting shape? In particular, will it be convex? ...
