We investigate the properties of minimizers of one-dimensional variational problems when the Lagrangian has no higher smoothness than continuity. An elementary approximation result is proved, but it is shown that this cannot be in general…

We use the framework of a type of abstract convexity ($\Phi_{lsc}$-convexity) to investigate properties of lower semicontinuous quadratically minorized functions in Hilbert spaces. A new result, which states that, for every local…

Two properties of plurisubharmonic functions are proven. The first result is a Skoda type integrability theorem with respect to a Monge-Amp\`ere mass with H\"older continuous potential. The second one says that locally, a p.s.h. function is…
