We provide a number of sufficient conditions for that minimizers of the one-dimensional Rudin-Osher-Fatemi functional satisfy the Dirichlet data in the trace sense. For this purpose we use results specific for the total variation flow. We…

This paper is concerned with the long time dynamics of the free boundary of a Darcy fluid in three space dimensions, also known as the one-phase Muskat problem. The dynamics of the free boundary is governed by a nonlocal fully nonlinear…

We introduce and study the flow of metrics on a foliated Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, whose velocity along the orthogonal distribution is proportional to the mixed scalar curvature, $\Sc_{\,\rm mix}$. The flow is used to examine the…

S. K. Donaldson asked whether the lower bound of the Calabi functional is achieved by a sequence the normalized Donaldson-Futaki invariants. We answer the question for the Ricci curvature formalism, in place of the scalar curvature. The…

In this paper, we are interested in shape optimization problems involving the ge ometry (normal, curvatures) of the surfaces. We consider a class of hypersurface s in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ satisfying a uniform ball condition and we prove the…

We study the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplace operator on an arbitrary bounded, open set in $\R^d$, $d \geq 2$. In particular, we derive upper bounds on Riesz means of order $\sigma \geq 3/2$, that improve the sharp Berezin inequality…

This paper sets up an approach for shape optimization problems constrained by variational inequalities (VI) in an appropriate shape space. In contrast to classical VI, where no explicit dependence on the domain is given, VI constrained…

For a toric pair $(X, D)$, where $X$ is a projective toric variety of dimension $d-1\geq 1$ and $D$ is a very ample $T$-Cartier divisor, we show that the Hilbert-Kunz density function $HKd(X, D)(\lambda)$ is the $d-1$ dimensional volume of…

This paper is concerned with a shape optimization problem governed by a non-smooth PDE, i.e., the nonlinearity in the state equation is not necessarily differentiable. We follow the functional variational approach of [40] where the set of…

A symmetrization inequality of Rogers and of Brascamp-Lieb-Luttinger states that for a certain class of multilinear integral expressions, among tuples of sets of prescribed Lebesgue measures, tuples of balls centered at the origin are among…

A central question which originates in the celebrated work in the 1980's of DiPerna and Majda asks what is the optimal decay $f > 0$ such that uniform rates $|\omega|(Q) \leq f(|Q|)$ of the vorticity maximal functions guarantee strong…

We introduce a large family of reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces $\mathcal{H} \subset \mbox{Hol}(\mathbb{D})$, which include the classical Dirichlet-type spaces $\mathcal{D}_\alpha$, by requiring normalized monomials to form a Riesz basis…

We characterize the global maximizers of a certain non-local functional defined on the space of all positively curved metrics on an ample line bundle L over a Kahler manifold X. This functional is an adjoint version, introduced by…

This article deals with a particular class of shape and topology optimization problems: the optimized design is a region $G$ of the boundary $\partial \Omega$ of a given domain $\Omega$, which supports a particular type of boundary…

Let $n\ge 2$ be an integer. To each irreducible representation $\sigma$ of $\mathrm O(1)$, an $\mathrm {O}(1)$-Kepler problem in dimension $n$ is constructed and analyzed. This system is super integrable and when $n=2$ it is equivalent to a…

Vibrational structures are susceptible to catastrophic failures or structural damages when external forces induce resonances or repeated unwanted oscillations. One common mitigation strategy is to use dampers to suppress these disturbances.…

We define local Hardy spaces of differential forms $h^p_{\mathcal D}(\wedge T^*M)$ for all $p\in[1,\infty]$ that are adapted to a class of first order differential operators $\mathcal D$ on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ with at most…

In this investigation, we conduct a systematic computational search for potential singularities in 3D Navier-Stokes flows on a periodic domain $\Omega$ based on the Ladyzhenskaya-Prodi-Serrin conditions. They assert that for a solution…

In this thesis we develop a functional analytic framework for shape optimization with elliptic partial differential equation (PDE) constraints in classical function spaces (H\"older spaces). This approach is motivated by shape optimization…
