We consider triplets of densities $(u_1,u_2,u_3)$ minimizing the Dirichlet energy \[\sum_{j=1}^3 \int_{\Omega} |\nabla u_j|^2\,dx \] over a bounded domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^N$, subject to the partial segregation condition: \[…
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 give a localized regularity condition for energy conservation of weak solutions of the Euler equations on a domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, $d\ge 2$, with boundary. In the bulk of fluid, we assume Besov regularity of the velocity…
Current quadratic smoothness energies for curved surfaces either exhibit distortions near the boundary due to zero Neumann boundary conditions, or they do not correctly account for intrinsic curvature, which leads to unnatural-looking…
We study the regularity of the free boundary in the fully nonlinear thin obstacle problem. Our main result establishes that the free boundary is $C^1$ near regular points.
We investigate the regularity of the free boundaries in the 3 elastic membranes problem. We show that the two free boundaries corresponding to the coincidence regions between consecutive membranes are $C^{1,\log}$-hypersurfaces near a…
In this paper we study the steepest descent $L^2$-gradient flow of the functional $\SW_{\lambda_1,\lambda_2}$, which is the the sum of the Willmore energy, $\lambda_1$-weighted surface area, and $\lambda_2$-weighted enclosed volume, for…
We consider the problem of finding (possibly non connected) discrete surfaces spanning a finite set of discrete boundary curves in the three-dimensional space and minimizing (globally) a discrete energy involving mean curvature. Although we…
Composite rigging systems, involving membranes that meet on strings that meet on monopoles, arise naturally by the Kibble mechanism as topological defects in field theories involving spontaneous symmetry breaking. Such systems will tend to…
We study the motion of a compressible perfect liquid body in vacuum. This can be thought of as a model for the motion of the ocean or a star. The free surface moves with the velocity of the liquid and the pressure vanishes on the free…
The deformation of finite-sized bubbles in intense turbulence exhibits complex geometries beyond simple spheroids as the bubbles exchange energy with the surrounding eddies across a wide range of scales. This study investigates deformation…
We study the wave equation in an interval with two linearly moving endpoints. We give the exact solution by a series formula, then we show that the energy of the solution decay at the rate $1/t$. We also establish observability results, at…
The set of volumes of stable surfaces does have accumulation points. In this paper, we study this phenomenon for surfaces with one cyclic quotient singularity, towards answering the question under which conditions we can still have…
We consider the asymmetric simple exclusion process in $d\ge 3$ with open boundaries. The particle reservoirs of constant densities are modeled by birth and death processes at the boundary. We prove that, if the initial density and the…
We determine the thermodynamic stability conditions for near-extreme rotating D3, M5, and M2-branes with multiple angular momenta. Critical exponents near the boundary of stability are discussed and compared with a naive field theory model.…
This article deals with the variable coefficient thin obstacle problem in $n+1$ dimensions. We address the regular free boundary regularity, the behavior of the solution close to the free boundary and the optimal regularity of the solution…
We consider the scaling-invariant nonlocal Willmore energy, defined via the nonlocal mean curvature by Caffarelli, Roquejoffre and Savin. Our main result is the existence of minimizers in the class of convex $C^1$-curves.
It is known that the energy of a weak solution to the Euler equation is conserved if it is slightly more regular than the Besov space $B^{1/3}_{3,\infty}$. When the singular set of the solution is (or belongs to) a smooth manifold, we…
We consider the formation of singularities along the Calabi flow with the assumption of the uniform Sobolev constant. In particular, on K\"ahler surface we show that any "maximal bubble" has to be a scalar flat ALE K\"ahler metric. In some…
In this paper we prove explicit formulas for all Willmore surfaces of revolution and demonstrate their use in the discussion of the associated Dirichlet boundary value problems. It is shown by an explicit example that symmetric Dirichlet…
