Abstract

In the unit ball B(0; 1), let u and › (a domain in N ) solve the following overdetermined problem: ¢u = ´› in B(0; 1); 02 @› ;u =jruj =0 inB(0; 1)n ›; where ´› denotes the characteristic function, and the equation is satisfled in the sense of distributions. If the complement of › does not develop cusp singularities at the origin then we prove @› is analytic in some small neighborhood of the origin. The result can be modifled to yield for more general divergence form operators. As an application of this, then, we obtain the regularity of the boundary of a domain without the Pompeiu property, provided its complement has no cusp singularities.
