By the classical Li-Yau inequality, an immersion of a closed surface in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with Willmore energy below $8\pi$ has to be embedded. We discuss analogous results for curves in $\mathbb{R}^2$, involving Euler's elastic energy and…
We consider the inviscid Leray-$\alpha$ equations - an inviscid nonlocal regularisation of the Euler equations. In the first part, we prove the convergence of strong solutions of the Leray-$\alpha$ equations to strong solutions of the Euler…
We identify the Variational Principle governing inifinity-Harmonic maps, that is solutions to the Infinity-Laplacian. The system was first derived in the limit of the p-Laplacian as p->inifinity in [K2] and is recently studied in [K3]. Here…
In this paper, we introduce a new notion of convergence for the Laplace eigenfunctions in the semiclassical limit, the local weak convergence. This allows us to give a rigorous statement of Berry's random wave conjecture. Using recent…
A proof of convergence is given for a novel evolving surface finite element semi-discretization of Willmore flow of closed two-dimensional surfaces, and also of surface diffusion flow. The numerical method proposed and studied here…
We consider the 2-D incompressible Euler equations in a bounded domain and show that local weak solutions are exponentially integrable, uniformly in time, under minimal integrability conditions. This is a Serrin-type interior regularity…
We demonstrate a measure theoretical approach to the local regularity of weak supersolutions to elliptic and parabolic equations in divergence form. In the first part, we show that weak supersolutions become lower semicontinuous after…
In this paper, we consider the Forward--Backward proximal splitting algorithm to minimize the sum of two proper convex functions, one of which having a Lipschitz continuous gradient and the other being partly smooth relative to an active…
We propose a new convex integration scheme in fluid mechanics, and we provide an application to the two-dimensional Euler equations. We prove the flexibility and nonuniqueness of $L^\infty L^2$ weak solutions with vorticity in $L^\infty…
This is the second of a series of two papers where we construct embedded Willmore tori with small area constraint in Riemannian three-manifolds. In both papers the construction relies on a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction, the difficulty being…
We propose a high-precision numerical quadrature framework based on local Fourier extension (LFE) approximations. The method constructs, on each subinterval, a truncated-SVD stabilized local Fourier continuation of the integrand on an…
In this paper, we study local regularity properties of minimizers of nonlocal variational functionals with variable exponents and weak solutions to the corresponding Euler--Lagrange equations. We show that weak solutions are locally bounded…
In this paper, we study the local linear convergence properties of a versatile class of Primal-Dual splitting methods for minimizing composite non-smooth convex optimization problems. Under the assumption that the non-smooth components of…
We consider a class of integral functionals with Musielak-Orlicz type variable growth, possibly linear in some regions of the domain. This includes $p(x)$ power-type integrands with $p(x)\ge 1$ as well as double-phase $p\!-\!q$ integrands…
We study variational problems involving nonlocal supremal functionals $L^\infty(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^m) \ni u\mapsto {\rm ess sup}_{(x,y)\in \Omega\times \Omega} W(u(x), u(y)),$ where $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a bounded, open set and…
First introduced to describe surfaces embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$, the Willmore invariant is a conformally-invariant extrinsic scalar curvature of a surface that vanishes when the surface minimizes bending and stretching. Both this invariant…
A fundamental theme in classical Fourier analysis relates smoothness properties of functions to the growth and/or integrability of their Fourier transform. By using a suitable class of $L^{p}-$multipliers, a rather general inequality…
In this paper we study the local regularity of closed surfaces immersed in a Riemannian 3-manifold flowing by Willmore flow. We establish a pair of concentration-compactness alternatives for the flow, giving a lower bound on the maximal…
We study wrinkling patterns in a thin elastic annulus subjected to radial stretching within the framework of the F\"oppl--von K\'arm\'an theory. Building on the analysis of the Lam\'e problem in Bella and Kohn, we investigate the asymptotic…
We consider integral functionals with slow growth and explicit dependence on u of the lagrangian; this includes many relevant examples, as, for instance, in elastoplastic torsion problems or in image restoration problems. Our aim is to…
