In this paper we consider the minimization of a novel class of fractional linear growth functionals involving the Riesz fractional gradient. These functionals lack the coercivity properties in the fractional Sobolev spaces needed to apply…
On the two dimensional sphere, we consider axisymmetric critical points of an isoperimetric problem perturbed by a long-range interaction term. When the parameter controlling the nonlocal term is sufficiently large, we prove the existence…
What is the optimal way to cut a convex bounded domain $K$ in Euclidean space $(\mathbb{R}^n,|\cdot|)$ into two halves of equal volume, so that the interface between the two halves has least surface area? A conjecture of Kannan, Lov\'asz…
We consider the isentropic compressible Euler system in 2 space dimensions with pressure law $p({\rho}) = {\rho}^2$ and we show the existence of classical Riemann data, i.e. pure jump discontinuities across a line, for which there are…
We prove and collect numerous explicit and computable results for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s f(x)$ with $s>0$ as well as its whole space inverse, the Riesz potential, $(-\Delta)^{-s}f(x)$ with $s\in\left(0,\frac{1}{2}\right)$.…
In this paper the author studies the isoperimetric problem in $\re^n$ with perimeter density $|x|^p$ and volume density $1.$ We settle completely the case $n=2,$ completing a previous work by the author: we characterize the case of equality…
We classify the volume preserving stable hypersurfaces in the real projective space $\mathbb{RP}^n$. As a consequence, the solutions of the isoperimetric problem are tubular neighborhoods of projective subspaces $\mathbb{RP}^k\subset…
We introduce Riesz potentials for non-Lebesgue measurable functions by taking the integrals in the sense of Choquet with respect to Hausdorff content and prove boundedness results for these operators. Some earlier results are recovered or…
We investigate the Riesz energy minimization problem on a $d$-dimensional ball in the presence of an external field created by a point charge above the ball in $\R^{d+1}$, $d\geq1$. Both cases of an attractive charge and a repulsive charge…
We study the isoperimetric problem with a potential energy $g$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ weighted by a radial density $f$ and analyze the geometric properties of minimizers. Notably, we construct two counterexamples demonstrating that, in contrast…
We consider a variational problem involving competition between surface tension and charge repulsion. We show that, as opposed to the case of weak (short-range) interactions where we proved ill-posedness of the problem in a previous paper,…
We consider functionals given by the sum of the perimeter and the double integral of some kernel $g:\mathbb R^N\times\mathbb R^N\to \mathbb R^+$, multiplied by a "mass parameter" $\varepsilon$. We show that, whenever $g$ is admissible,…
The main goal of the paper is to address the issue of the existence of Kempf's distortion function and the Tian-Yau-Zelditch (TYZ) asymptotic expansion for the Kepler manifold - an important example of non compact manfold. Motivated by the…
The notion of strictly outward minimising hull is investigated for open sets of finite perimeter sitting inside a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. Under natural geometric assumptions on the ambient manifold, the strictly outward…
We analyse the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to the one dimensional fractional version of the porous medium equation introduced by Caffarelli and V\'azquez, where the pressure is obtained as a Riesz potential associated to the density.…
It is proved that the simplex is a strict local minimum for the volume product, P(K)=min(vol(K) vol(K^z)), K^z is the polar body of K with respect to z, the minimum is taken over z in the interior of K, in the Banach-Mazur space of…
We consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in an unbounded convex body $C\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, without assuming any further regularity on the boundary of $C$. Motivated by an example of an…

In \cite{Haran_1990}, Haran, using Riesz potentials, presents a version of the classical explicit formula for the Riemann zeta function that treats all places equally. In this article, we extend Haran's results to the case of an imaginary…
In this paper we show the stability of the ball as maximizer of the Riesz potential among sets of given volume. The stability is proved with sharp exponent $1/2$, and is valid for any dimension $N\geq 2$ and any power $1<\alpha<N$.
