This paper introduces the proper notion of variational quasiconvexity associated to a group of diffeomorphisms. We prove a lower semicontinuity theorem connected to this notion. In the second part of the paper we apply this result to a…

We show weak* in measures on $\bar\O$/ weak-$L^1$ sequential continuity of $u\mapsto f(x,\nabla u):W^{1,p}(\O;\R^m)\to L^1(\O)$, where $f(x,\cdot)$ is a null Lagrangian for $x\in\O$, it is a null Lagrangian at the boundary for…

We discuss pointwise behavior of weak supersolutions for a class of doubly nonlinear parabolic fractional $p$-Laplace equations which includes the fractional parabolic $p$-Laplace equation and the fractional porous medium equation. More…

We establish a general weak* lower semicontinuity result in the space $\BD(\Omega)$ of functions of bounded deformation for functionals of the form $$\Fcal(u) := \int_\Omega f \bigl(x, \Ecal u \bigr) \dd x + \int_\Omega f^\infty \Bigl(x,…

We address a deep study of the convexity notions that arise in the study of weak* lower semicontinuity of supremal functionals as well as those raised by the power-law approximation of such functionals. Our quest is motivated by the…

We provide some lower semicontinuity results in the space of special functions of bounded deformation for energies of the type $$ %\int_\O {1/2}({\mathbb C} \E u, \E u)dx + \int_{J_{u}} \Theta(u^+, u^-, \nu_{u})d \H^{N-1} \enspace, \enspace…

We give an extension to a nonconvex setting of the classical radial representation result for lower semicontinuous envelope of a convex function on the boundary of its effective domain. We introduce the concept of radial uniform upper…

We deduce mixed quasi-norm estimates of Lebesgue types on semi-continuous convolutions between sequences and functions which may be periodic or possess a weaker form of periodicity in certain directions. In these directions, the Lebesgue…

We show weak lower semi-continuity of functionals assuming the new notion of a "convexly constrained" $\mathcal A$-quasiconvex integrand. We assume $\mathcal A$-quasiconvexity only for functions defined on a set $K$ which is convex.…

In this paper, we establish the following result: Let $(T,{\cal F},\mu)$ be a $\sigma$-finite measure space, let $Y$ be a reflexive real Banach space, and let $\varphi, \psi:Y\to {\bf R}$ be two sequentially weakly lower semicontinuous…

The main purpose of this paper is to study weak solutions of time-fractional of porous medium equation with nonlocal pressure: \[ \partial^\alpha_t u=\operatorname{div}\left( |u|^{m}\nabla (-\Delta)^{-s} u\right) \,\, \text{in }…

The $\kappa$-topologies on the spaces $\mathscr{D}_{L^p}$, $L^p$ and $\mathscr{M}^1$ are defined by a neighbourhood basis consisting of polars of absolutely convex and compact subsets of their (pre-)dual spaces. In many cases it is more…

This paper is devoted to problems stated by Z. Zhou and F. Li in 2009. They concern relations between almost periodic, weakly almost periodic, and quasi-weakly almost periodic points of a continuous map f and its topological entropy. The…

This study uses the ideas of \cite{Rieffel} to provide the dual of $L^1(\mu,X)$ in the positive and $\sigma-$ finite cases. This results in elegant necessary and sufficient criteria for weak compactness in $L^1(S,\mu,X)$ in the…

We establish a weak Harnack inequality for nonlocal $W^{s,1}$-subminimizers in a complete, connected, doubling metric measure space where $0<s<1$. As a corollary, we prove that $W^{s,1}$-subminimizers are semicontinuous, up to a suitable…

Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact Hermitian manifold of dimension $n$. We show that all $(\omega,m)$-subharmonic functions are $L^p$ integrable on $X$, for any $p < \frac{n}{n-m}$.
