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 construct a branched center manifold in a neighborhood of a singular point of a $2$-dimensional integral current which is almost minimizing in a suitable sense. Our construction is the first half of an argument which shows the…

In this paper, we extend the related notions of Dirichlet quasiminimizer, $\omega-$minimizer and almost minimizer to the framework of multiple-valued functions in the sense of Almgren and prove Holder regularity results. We also give…
In this paper we consider Lipschitz graphs of functions which are stationary points of strictly polyconvex energies. Such graphs can be thought as integral currents, resp. varifolds, which are stationary for some elliptic integrands. The…
This survey hinges on the interplay between regularity and approximation for linear and quasi-linear fractional elliptic problems on Lipschitz domains. For the linear Dirichlet integral Laplacian, after briefly recalling H\"older regularity…
The focus of this paper is the study of the regularity properties of the time harmonic Maxwell's equations with anisotropic complex coefficients, in a bounded domain with $C^{1,1}$ boundary. We assume that at least one of the material…
Let $\Sigma$ be a smooth Riemannian manifold, $\Gamma \subset \Sigma$ a smooth closed oriented submanifold of codimension higher than $2$ and $T$ an integral area-minimizing current in $\Sigma$ which bounds $\Gamma$. We prove that the set…
We provide new general methods in the calculus of variations for the anisotropic Plateau problem in arbitrary dimension and codimension. A new direct proof of Almgren's 1968 existence result is presented; namely, we produce from a class of…
We establish uniform Lipschitz estimates for second-order elliptic systems in divergence form with rapidly oscillating, almost-periodic coefficients. We give interior estimates as well as estimates up to the boundary in bounded…
The main goal of this work is to prove an instance of the unique continuation principle for area minimizing integral currents. More precisely, consider an $m$-dimensional area minimizing integral current and an $m$-dimensional minimal…
We give partial boundary regularity for co-dimension one absolutely area-minimizing currents at points where the boundary consists of a sum of $C^{1,\alpha}$ submanifolds, possibly with multiplicity, meeting tangentially, given that the…
We construct area-minimizing submanifolds with fractal singular sets on compact Riemannian manifolds. Thus, we settle a conjecture by Almgren and our answer is sharp dimensionwise. Furthermore, we can prescribe arbitrarily the strata in the…

For a given constant $\lambda > 0$ and a bounded Lipschitz domain $D \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ ($n \geq 2$), we establish that almost-minimizers of the functional $$ J(\mathbf{v}; D) = \int_D \sum_{i=1}^{m} \left|\nabla v_i(x) \right|^p+…
In this paper, we study the regularity of the solutions of Maxwell's equations in a bounded domain. We consider several different types of low regularity assumptions to the coefficients which are all less than Lipschitz. We first develop a…
We consider area minimizing $m$-dimensional currents $\mathrm{mod}(p)$ in complete $C^2$ Riemannian manifolds $\Sigma$ of dimension $m+1$. For odd moduli we prove that, away from a closed rectifiable set of codimension $2$, the current in…
We establish the local Lipschitz continuity and the higher differentiability of vector-valued local minimizers of a class of energy integrals of the Calculus of Variations. The main novelty is that we deal with possibly degenerate energy…
We study $n$-dimensional area-minimizing currents $T$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1},$ with boundary $\partial T$ satisfying two properties: $\partial T$ is locally a finite sum of $(n-1)$-dimensional $C^{1,\alpha}$ orientable submanifolds which only…
We mainly discuss superquadratic minimization problems for splitting-type variational integrals on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and prove higher integrability of the gradient up to the boundary by incorporating…
