Abstract
We study regularity properties of the free boundary for solutions of the porous medium equation with the presence of drift. We show the $$C^{1,\alpha }$$ regularity of the free boundary when the solution is directionally monotone in space variable in a local neighborhood. The main challenge lies in establishing a local non-degeneracy estimate (Theorem 1.3 and Proposition 1.5), which appears new even for the zero drift case.
