We consider the minimizers of $L^{2}$-critical inhomogeneous variational problems with a spatially decaying nonlinear term in an open bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$ which contains $0$. We prove that there is a threshold…

We show that any minimizer of the well-known ACF functional (for the $p$-Laplacian) is a viscosity solution. This allows us to establish a uniform flatness decay at the two-phase free boundary points to improve the flatness, that boils down…

For a given constant $\lambda > 0$ and a bounded Lipschitz domain $D \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ ($n \geq 2$), we establish that almost-minimizers of the functional $$ J(\mathbf{v}; D) = \int_D \sum_{i=1}^{m} \left|\nabla v_i(x) \right|^p+…

We study the regularity of quasi-minimal sets (in the sense of David and Semmes) with a boundary condition, which can be interpreted as quasi-minimizers of Plateau's problem in co-dimension one. For these Plateau-quasi-minimizers, we…

A weak solution of the two-dimensional eikonal equation amounts to a vector field $m\colon\Omega\subset\mathbb R^2\to\mathbb R^2$ such that $|m|=1$ a.e. and $\mathrm{div}\,m=0$ in $\mathcal D'(\Omega)$. It is known that, if $m$ has some low…

In this note we study the Dirichlet problem associated with a version of prime end boundary of a bounded domain in a complete metric measure space equipped with a doubling measure supporting a Poincare inequality. We show the resolutivity…

We consider minimizers of linear functionals of the type $$L(u)=\int_{\p \Omega} u \, d \sigma - \int_{\Omega} u \, dx$$ in the class of convex functions $u$ with prescribed determinant $\det D^2 u =f$. We obtain compactness properties for…

We develop the notion of higher Cheeger constants for a measurable set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$. By the $k$-th Cheeger constant we mean the value \[h_k(\Omega) = \inf \max \{h_1(E_1), \dots, h_1(E_k)\},\] where the infimum is taken…
