In Euclidean space, it is well known that any integration by parts formula for a set of finite perimeter $\Omega$ is expressed by the integration with respect to a measure $P(\Omega,\cdot)$ which is equivalent to the one-codimensional…
An overview of several recent developments in density functional theory for classical inhomogeneous liquids is given. We show how Levy's constrained search method can be used to derive the variational principle that underlies density…
The aim of this paper is to present some results about the space L^\Phi(\nu), where \nu is a vector measure on a compact (not necessarily abelian) group and \Phi is a Young function. We show that under certain conditions, the space…
We study modules over a generalized Weyl algebra $R(\sigma,a)$ which are free when restricted to the base ring $R$. When $R$ is an integral domain, we construct all such finite-rank modules up to isomorphism, leading to new simple modules…
In this work we present new fundamental tools for studying the variations of the Willmore functional of immersed surfaces into $R^m$. This approach gives for instance a new proof of the existence of a Willmore minimizing embedding of an…
In this article, we investigate a density problem coming from the linearization of Calder\'on's problem with partial data. More precisely, we prove that the set of products of harmonic functions on a bounded smooth domain $\Omega$ vanishing…
In this work the Isoperimetric Inequality for integral varifolds is used to obtain sharp estimates for the size of the set where the density quotient is small and to generalise Calder\'on's and Zygmund's theory of first order…
We show that integration over a $G$-manifold $M$ can be reduced to integration over a minimal section $\Sigma$ with respect to an induced weighted measure and integration over a homogeneous space $G/N$. We relate our formula to integration…
For a fixed constant $\lambda > 0$ and a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with $n \geq 2$, we establish that almost-minimizers (functions satisfying a sort of variational inequality) of the Alt-Caffarelli type…
We present a new nonempirical density functional generalized gradient approximation (GGA) that gives significant improvements for lattice constants, crystal structures, and metal surface energies over the most popular Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof…
We revisit the problem of characterizing the eigenvalue distribution of the Dirichlet-Laplacian on bounded open sets $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}$ with fractal boundaries. It is well-known from the results of Lapidus and Pomerance \cite{LapPo1}…
We show that the n-fold integrals $\chi^{(n)}$ of the magnetic susceptibility of the Ising model, as well as various other n-fold integrals of the "Ising class", or n-fold integrals from enumerative combinatorics, like lattice Green…
Weakly harmonic maps from a domain $\Omega$ (the upper half-space $\Rd$ or a bounded $C^{1,\alpha}$ domain, $\alpha\in (0,1]$) into a smooth closed manifold are studied. Prescribing small Dirichlet data in either of the classes…
We study isometric immersions of a Riemannian surface $(\Omega,\frak{g})$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$, into $\mathbb{R}^3$. We consider their bending energy, i.e., the square of the $L^2$-norm of their second fundamental form,…
Recent years have brought significant advances in the theory of higher order elliptic equations in non-smooth domains. Sharp pointwise estimates on derivatives of polyharmonic functions in arbitrary domains were established, followed by the…
We provide sharp sufficient criteria for an integral $2$-varifold to be induced by a $W^{2,2}$-conformal immersion of a smooth surface. Our approach is based on a fine analysis of the Hausdorff density for $2$-varifolds with critical…
We prove that a $\Phi$-function can be extended from a domain $\Omega$ to all of $\mathbb R^n$ while preserving crucial properties for harmonic analysis on the generalized Orlicz space $L^\Phi$.
Calder\'on-Zygmund theory has been traditionally developed on metric measure spaces satisfying additional regularity properties. In the lack of good metrics, we introduce a new approach for general measure spaces which admit a Markov…
In this note two results are established for energy functionals that are given by the integral of $ W(\mathbf x,\nabla \mathbf u(\mathbf x))$ over $\Omega \subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with $\nabla \mathbf u \in BMO(\Omega;{\mathbb R}^{N\times n})$,…
We introduce a general $L_p$-solvability result for the Poisson equation in non-smooth domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, with the zero Dirichlet boundary condition. Our sole assumption on the domain $\Omega$ is the Hardy inequality:…
