We develop a new method that enables us to solve the open problem of characterizing discrete inequalities for kernel operators involving suprema. More precisely, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions under which there exists a…
In this paper we study integral operators with kernels \begin{equation*} K(x,y)= k_1( x- A_1y)...k_m( x-A_my), \end{equation*} $k_i(x)=\frac{\Omega_i(x)}{|x|^{n/q_i}}$ where $\Omega_i: \mathbb{R}^n\to \mathbb{R}$ are homogeneous functions…
We provide a general condition on the kernel of an integro-differential operator so that its associated quadratic form satisfies a coercivity estimate with respect to the $H^s$-seminorm.
We give a necessary condition for a domain to have a bounded extension operator from $L^{1,p}(\Omega)$ to $L^{1,p}(\mathbb R^n)$ for the range $1 < p < 2$. The condition is given in terms of a power of the distance to the boundary of…
Let $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ be an open set, not necessarily connected, with an $n$-dimensional uniformly rectifiable boundary. We show that $\partial\Omega$ may be approximated in a "Big Pieces" sense by boundaries of chord-arc…
We introduce the notion of {\it quasi-inner} function and show that the product $u=\rho_\infty\prod \rho_v$ of $m+1$ ratios of local {$L$-}factors {$\rho_v(z)=\gamma_v(z)/\gamma_v(1-z)$} over a finite set $F$ of places of the field of…
Given a complex, elliptic coefficient function we investigate for which values of $p$ the corresponding second-order divergence form operator, complemented with Dirichlet, Neumann or mixed boundary conditions, generates a strongly…
We prove a weak-strong convergence result for functionals of the form $\int_{\mathbb{R}^N} j(x, u, Du)\,dx$ on $W^{1,p}$, along equiintegrable sequences. We will then use it to study cases of equality in the extended Polya-Szeg\"o…
We define the weak-normalization and the seminormalization of a real algebraic variety relative to its central locus. The study is related to the properties of the rings of continuous rational functions and hereditarily rational functions…
We introduce a new versatile method for constructing solution operators (i.e., right-inverses up to a finite rank operator) for a wide class of underdetermined PDEs $P u = f$, which are regularizing of optimal order and, more interestingly,…
Let $\{ A_k\}_{k=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of finite subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$ satisfying that $\# A_k \ge 2$ for all integers $k \ge 1$. In this paper, we first give a sufficient and necessary condition for the existence of the infinite…
The purpose of this paper is to prove some existence and non-existence theorems for the nonlinear elliptic problems of the form -{\Delta}_{p}u={\lambda}k(x)u^{q}\pmh(x)u^{{\sigma}} if x\in{\Omega}, subject to the Dirichlet conditions…
The notion of a quasi-free Hilbert module over a function algebra $\mathcal{A}$ consisting of holomorphic functions on a bounded domain $\Omega$ in complex $m$ space is introduced. It is shown that quasi-free Hilbert modules correspond to…
We study the existence and regularity of weak solutions to the following quasilinear elliptic system: \[ -\mathrm{div}(A_k(x, u_k) |\nabla u_k|^{p_k - 2} \nabla u_k) + \dfrac{1}{p_k} D_s A_k(x, u_k) |\nabla u_k|^{p_k} = g_k(x, u) \quad…
Let $c_{kl} \in W^{2,\infty}(\mathbb{R}^d, \mathbb{C})$ for all $k,l \in \{1, \ldots, d\}$. We consider the divergence form operator $A = - \sum_{k,l=1}^d \partial_l (c_{kl} \, \partial_k) $in $L_2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ when the coefficient matrix…
For a class of discrete quasi convex functions called semi-strictly quasi M$^\natural$-convex functions, we investigate fundamental issues relating to minimization, such as optimality condition by local optimality, minimizer cut property,…
In this paper, we investigate the regularity of weak solutions $u\colon\Omega\to\mathbb{R}$ to elliptic equations of the type \begin{equation*} \mathrm{div}\, \nabla \mathcal{F}(x,Du) = f\qquad\text{in $\Omega$}, \end{equation*} whose…
We prove partial regularity for minimizers of vectorial integrals of the Calculus of Variations, with general growth condition, imposing quasiconvexity assumptions only in an asymptotic sense.
We show that the local Burkholder functional $\mathcal B_K$ is quasiconvex. In the limit of $p$ going to 2 we find a class of non-polyconvex functionals which are quasiconvex on the set of matrices with positive determinant. In order to…
In this paper, we introduce a class of singular integral operators which generalize Calder\'on-Zygmund operators to the more general case, where the set of singular points of the kernel need not to be the diagonal, but instead, it can be a…
