We describe a `discretize-then-relax' strategy to globally minimize integral functionals over functions $u$ in a Sobolev space subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. The strategy applies whenever the integral functional depends…
We work in a class of Sobolev $W^{1,p}$ maps, with $p > d-1$, from a bounded open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ to $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ that do not exhibit cavitation and whose trace on $\partial \Omega$ is also $W^{1,p}$. Under the…

We present a method for finding lower bounds on the global infima of integral variational problems, wherein $\int_\Omega f(x,u(x),\nabla u(x)){\rm d}x$ is minimized over functions $u\colon\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^m$ satisfying…
Computationally intractable tasks are often encountered in physics and optimization. Such tasks often comprise a cost function to be optimized over a so-called feasible set, which is specified by a set of constraints. This may yield, in…
The present paper is intended to provide the basis for the study of weakly differentiable functions on rectifiable varifolds with locally bounded first variation. The concept proposed here is defined by means of integration by parts…
We shown that every continuous local functional on the space of finite convex functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is a valuation. This relation is used to establish a homogeneous decomposition for the class of polynomial local functionals as well…
In this paper, we study a class of semilinear nonlocal elliptic equations posed on settings without compact Sobolev embedding. More precisely, we prove the existence of infinitely many solutions to the fractional Brezis-Nirenberg problems…
We prove higher regularity for nonlinear nonlocal equations with possibly discontinuous coefficients of VMO-type in fractional Sobolev spaces. While for corresponding local elliptic equations with VMO coefficients it is only possible to…

We consider the homogenization of random integral functionals which are possibly unbounded, that is, the domain of the integrand is not the whole space and may depend on the space-variable. In the vectorial case, we develop a complete…
