We present an exposition of a remarkable example attributed to Frederick Almgren Jr. in \cite[Section 5.11]{Federer74} to illustrate the need of certain definitions in the calculus of variations. The Almgren-Federer example, besides its…

We are concerned with the analysis of finite time collision trajectories for a class of singular anisotropic homogeneous potentials of degree $-\alpha$, with $\alpha\in(0,2)$ and their lower order perturbations. It is well known that, under…

Minimal surfaces in closed 3-manifolds are classically constructed via the Almgren-Pitts approach. The Allen-Cahn approximation has proved to be a powerful alternative, and Chodosh and Mantoulidis (in Ann. Math. 2020) used it to give a new…

In this paper we have proved several approximation theorems for the family of minimal surfaces in R^3 that imply, among other things, that complete minimal surfaces are dense in the space of all minimal surfaces endowed with the topology of…

We consider a nondegenerate holomorphic map $f: V \mapsto X$ where $(X, \omega)$ is a compact hermitian manifold of dimension higher or equal to $k$ and $V$ is an open connected complex manifold of dimension $k$. In this article we give…

We give two structural conditions on a codimension $1$ integral $n$-varifold with first variation locally summable to an exponent $p>n$ that imply the following: whenever each orientable portion of the $C^{1}$-embedded part of the varifold…

In this paper, we prove Allard's Interior $\varepsilon$-Regularity Theorem for $m$-dimensional varifolds with generalized mean curvature in $L^p_{loc}$, for $p \in \mathbb{R}$ such that $p>m$, in Alexandrov spaces of dimension $n$ with…

We prove the multiplicity one theorem for min-max free boundary minimal hypersurfaces in compact manifolds with boundary of dimension between 3 and 7 for generic metrics. To approach this, we develop existence and regularity theory for free…

Let $\Omega$ be an $n$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold $(n \geq 3)$ with $C^\infty$ boundary, and consider $L^2$-normalized eigenfunctions $ - \Delta \phi_{\lambda} = \lambda^2 \phi_\lambda$ with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary…

We consider the isoperimetric problem for clusters in the plane with a double density, that is, perimeter and volume depend on two weights. In this paper we consider the isotropic case, in the parallel paper "On the Steiner property for…

In this paper, we address the existence of preferred asymptotic coordinates on asymptotically Euclidean (AE) manifolds $(M^3,g)$ such that $g$ admits an asymptotically Schwarzschildian first order expansion, based purely on a priori…

We revisit the partial $\mathrm{C}^{1,\alpha}$ regularity theory for minimizers of non-parametric integrals with emphasis on sharp dependence of the H\"older exponent $\alpha$ on structural assumptions for general zero-order terms. A…

In this paper, we give several results on area minimizing surfaces in strictly mean convex 3-manifolds. First, we study the genus of absolutely area minimizing surfaces in a compact, orientable, strictly mean convex 3-manifold M bounded by…

We obtain a fine structural result for two-dimensional mod$(q)$ area-minimizing currents of codimension one, close to flat singularities. Precisely, we show that, locally around any such singularity, the current is a…

In this paper we completely settle the Almgren problem in $\mathbb R^3$ under some generic conditions on the potential and tension functions. The problem, among other things, appears in classical thermodynamics when one is to understand if…

We establish a partial $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity result for minimizers of the optimal $p$-compliance problem with length penalization in any spatial dimension $N\geq 2$, extending some of the results obtained in…

The aim of this article is to give a rather extensive, and yet nontechnical, account of the birth of the regularity theory for generalized minimal surfaces, of its various ramifications along the decades, of the most recent developments,…

Two-dimensional topological field theories possessing a non-abelian current symmetry are constructed. The topological conformal algebra of these models is analysed. It differs from the one obtained by twisting the $N=2$ superconformal…

For a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^m, m\geq 2,$ of class $C^0$, the properties are studied of fields of `good directions', that is the directions with respect to which $\partial\Omega$ can be locally represented as the graph of a…

In this paper we show boundary monotonicity formulae for rectifiable varifolds having a $C^{1,\alpha}$ "boundary". In particular, we show that the area ratios of balls centered at this "boundary'' satisfy a nice monotonicity formula,…
