Journées équations aux dérivées partielles (2018), Exposé no. 2, 24 p.

These notes record and expand the lectures for the “Journées Équations aux Dérivées Partielles 2018” held by the author during the week of June 11-15, 2018. The aim is to give a overview of the classical theory for the obstacle problem, and then present some recent developments on the regularity of the free boundary.
