We develop and analyze a stabilization term for cut finite element approximations of an elliptic second order partial differential equation on a surface embedded in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The new stabilization term combines properly scaled normal…
We extend the standard notion of self-concordance to non-convex optimization and develop a family of second-order algorithms with global convergence guarantees. In particular, two function classes -- \textit{weakly self-concordant}…
Traditional analyses of gradient descent optimization show that, when the largest eigenvalue of the loss Hessian - often referred to as the sharpness - is below a critical learning-rate threshold, then training is 'stable' and training loss…
In this note we prove that on metric measure spaces, functions of least gradient, as well as local minimizers of the area functional (after modification on a set of measure zero) are continuous everywhere outside their jump sets. As a tool,…
We consider the Hardy constant associated with a domain in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space and we study its variation upon perturbation of the domain. We prove a Fr\'{e}chet differentiability result and establish a Hadamard-type formula…
Let L be a Lagrangian submanifold of a pseudo- or para-K\"ahler manifold which is H-minimal, i.e. a critical point of the volume functional restricted to Hamiltonian variations. We derive the second variation of the volume of L with respect…
This paper sheds new light on several interrelated topics of second-order variational analysis, both in finite and infinite-dimensional settings. We establish new relationships between second-order growth conditions on functions, the basic…

In this paper we prove that solutions to several shape optimization problems in the plane, with a convexity constraint on the admissible domains, are polygons. The main terms of the shape functionals we consider are either E f ($\Omega$),…
This paper is concerned with the derivation of necessary conditions for the optimal shape of a design problem governed by a non-smooth PDE. The main particularity thereof is the lack of differentiability of the nonlinearity in the state…
Many physical phenomena, governed by partial differential equations (PDEs), are second order in nature. This makes sense to pose the control on the second order derivatives of the field solution, in addition to zero and first order ones, to…
We study the stability properties of nodal sets of Laplace eigenfunctions on compact manifolds under specific small perturbations. We prove that nodal sets are fairly stable if said perturbations are relatively small, more formally,…
Much is known about when a locally optimal solution depends in a single-valued Lipschitz continuous way on the problem's parameters, including tilt perturbations. Much less is known, however, about when that solution and a uniquely…
We study the singular stochastic optimal control problem with model uncertainty, where the necessary conditions determined by the corresponding maximum principle are trivial. Robust integral form and pointwise second order necessary…
We investigate the presence of static solutions in generalized models described by a real scalar field in four-dimensional space-time. We study models in which the scalar field engenders higher-order derivatives and spontaneous symmetry…
We study how the properties of being reduced, integral domain, and normal, behave under small perturbations of the defining equations of a noetherian local ring. It is not hard to show that the property of being a local integral domain…
We consider spectral optimization problems of the form $$\min\Big\{\lambda_1(\Omega;D):\ \Omega\subset D,\ |\Omega|=1\Big\},$$ where $D$ is a given subset of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$. Here $\lambda_1(\Omega;D)$ is the first…
