Partial regularity for minimizers of singular energy functionals, with application to liquid crystal models

Analysis of PDEs 2013-12-17 v1

Abstract

We study the partial regularity of minimizers for certain singular functionals in the calculus of variations, motivated by Ball and Majumdar's recent modification [BM] of the Landau-de Gennes energy functional.
