Abstract
We prove symmetry for a multi-phase overdetermined problem, with nonlinear governing equations. The most simple form of our problem (in the two-phase case) is as follows: For a bounded domain () let be the Green's function (for the -Laplace operator) with pole at some interior point (origin, say), and the Green's function in the exterior with pole at infinity. If for some strictly increasing function (with some growth assumption) the condition holds on the boundary , then is necessarily a ball. We prove the more general multi-phase analog of this problem.
