In this paper we present a new proof of the sufficiency theorem for strong local minimizers concerning $C^1$-extremals at which the second variation is strictly positive. The results are presented in the quasiconvex setting, in accordance…
We show that quasi-minimizers of non-homogeneous energy functionals on metric measure spaces are locally H\"older continuous and satisfy the Harnack inequality. We assume that the spaces are doubling and support a Poincar\'e inequality. The…

We consider fractional variants of divergence form problems with highly oscillatory local coefficients. We characterise the convergence of these coefficients by means of classical $H$-convergence covering the local behaviour of the…
We analyze a family of non-local integral functionals of convolution-type depending on two small positive parameters $\varepsilon,\delta$: the first rules the length-scale of the non-local interactions and produces a `localization' effect…

We study Dirichlet problems for fractional Laplace equations of the form $(-\Delta)^{\frac{\alpha}{2}} u = f(x,u)$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ for $0<\alpha<n$ where the nonlinearity $f(x,u) = \sum_{i=1}^{M} \sigma_{i} u^{q_i} + \omega$ involves…
Recently, a new local optimality concept for minimax problems, termed calm local minimax points, has been introduced. In this paper, we extend this concept to a general class of nonsmooth, nonconvex nonconcave minimax problems with coupled…
This paper continues earlier work and is concerned with the inverse problem of parameter identification in variational inequalities of the second kind that does not only treat the parameter linked to a bilinear form, but importantly also…
