Self-similar minimizers of a branched transport functional

Analysis of PDEs 2018-06-22 v2

Abstract

We solve here completely an irrigation problem from a Dirac mass to the Lebesgue measure. The functional we consider is a two dimensional analog of a functional previously derived in the study of branched patterns in type-I superconductors. The minimizer we obtain is a self-similar tree.
