Solutions of the Bernoulli one-phase problem with a defect

RESUMO

We study the far-field behavior of solutions of the one-phase Bernoulli free boundary problem in the exterior of a ball, and of entire solutions with a single compactly supported inhomogeneity of the free boundary condition, which we call a defect. For solutions which blow down to a half-plane solution (proper solutions) we establish an asymptotic expansion at infinity: in dimension $d \geq 3$ the free boundary height converges to a limit at rate $|x|^{2-d}$ with a capacity-type coefficient, while in dimension $d=2$ the expansion carries a logarithmic term. A significant novelty is that the expansions are quantitative and uniform over all the proper solutions.
