The singular set in the Stefan problem
Abstract: In this paper we analyze the singular set in the Stefan problem and prove the following results: - The singular set has parabolic Hausdorff dimension at most $n-1$. - The solution admits a $C\infty$-expansion at all singular points, up to a set of parabolic Hausdorff dimension at most $n-2$. - In $\mathbb R3$, the free boundary is smooth for almost every time $t$, and the set of singular times $\mathcal S\subset \mathbb R$ has Hausdorff dimension at most $1/2$. These results provide us with a refined understanding of the Stefan problem's singularities and answer some long-standing open questions in the field.
