Abstract:
The main result of this paper concerns existence of classical solutions to the multi-layer
Bernoulli free boundary problem with nonlinear joining conditions and the p-Laplacian as gov-
erning operator. The present treatment of the 2-layer case involves technical re¯nements of the
one-layer case, studied earlier by two of the authors. The existence treatment of the multi-layer
case is largely based on a reduction to the two-layer case, in which uniform separation of the
free boundaries plays a key role.
