In this paper, I mainly prove the following results. For every energy value below the minimum of the first, second and third critical value, each bounded component of the regularized energy hypersurface of the Lagrange problem under some…
Utilizing a new variational principle that allows dealing with problems beyond the usual locally compactness structure, we study problems with a supercritical nonlinearity of the type $ -\Delta u + u= a(x) f(u)$ in $ \Omega$ with…
This is the first of two papers which study asymptotic behavior of minimal energy solutions to the fractional Lane-Emden system in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ \[(-\Delta)^s u = v^p, \quad (-\Delta)^s v = u^q \text{ in } \Omega \quad…
Under the condition of small external forces, we obtain existence of a weak solution of the steady Hall-MHD system with H\"{o}lder continuous magnetic field. We also established regularity of weak solutions provided that magnetic fields are…
Systems of classical continuous particles in the grand canonical ensemble interacting through purely attractive, yet stable, interactions are defined. By a lattice approximation, FKG ferromagnetic inequalities are shown to hold for such…
We critically assess recent claims suggesting that upper limits on the time variation of the fine-structure constant tightly constrain the coupling of a dark energy scalar field to the electromagnetic sector, and, indirectly, the violation…
We introduce and study the unconstrained polarization (or Chebyshev) problem which requires to find an $N$-point configuration that maximizes the minimum value of its potential over a set $A$ in $p$-dimensional Euclidean space. This problem…
In this article we investigate the restrictions imposed by the dominant energy condition (DEC) on the topology and conformal type of \textsl{possibly non-compact} marginally outer-trapped surfaces (thus extending Hawking's classical theorem…
In this work we introduce a procedure to find localized structures with finite energy. We start dealing with global monopoles, and add a new contribution to the potential of the scalar fields, to balance the contribution of the angular…
It has recently been proven that certain effective wavefunctions in fractional quantum mechanics and condensed matter do not have a locally conserved current; as a consequence, their coupling to the electromagnetic field leads to extended…
We consider the inverse problem of recovering an isotropic electrical conductivity from interior knowledge of the magnitude of one current density field generated by applying current on a set of electrodes. The required interior data can be…
The weak gravity conjecture (WGC) asserts that an Abelian gauge theory coupled to gravity is inconsistent unless it contains a particle of charge $q$ and mass $m$ such that $q \geq m/m_{\rm Pl}$. This criterion is obeyed by all known…
We look for minimizers of the buckling load problem with perimeter constraint in any dimension. In dimension 2, we show that the minimizing plates are convex; in higher dimension, by passing through a weaker formulation of the problem, we…
We investigate the minimal Riesz s-energy problem for positive measures on the d-dimensional unit sphere S^d in the presence of an external field induced by a point charge, and more generally by a line charge. The model interaction is that…
In this paper, we investigate the nonemptiness of weak Pareto efficient solution set for a class of nonsmooth vector optimization problems on a nonempty closed constraint set without any boundedness and convexity assumptions. First, we…
In this paper we analyze a two-dimensional discrete model of nearest-neighbour Lennard-Jones interactions under the microscopical constraint that points on a lattice triangle maintain their order. This can be understood as a microscopical…
We study the boundary control of solutions of the Helmholtz and Maxwell equations to enforce local non-zero constraints. These constraints may represent the local absence of nodal or critical points, or that certain functionals depending on…
We consider $\mathbb{S}^2$-valued maps on a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ minimizing a perturbation of the Dirichlet energy with vertical penalization in $\Omega$ and horizontal penalization on $\partial\Omega$. We first show the…
A central focus of Ginzburg-Landau theory is the understanding and characterization of vortex configurations. On a bounded domain $\Omega\subseteq \mathbb{R}^2,$ global minimizers, and critical states in general, of the corresponding energy…
We study the dynamical aspects of dark energy in the context of a non-minimally coupled scalar field with curvature and torsion. Whereas the scalar field acts as the source of the trace mode of torsion, a suitable constraint on the torsion…
