Fr\'echet regression, or conditional Barycenters, is a flexible framework for modeling relationships between covariates (usually Euclidean) and response variables on general metric spaces, e.g., probability distributions or positive…

We obtain exact conditions guaranteeing that any global weak solution of the differential inequality $$ \sum_{|\alpha| = m} \partial^\alpha a_\alpha (x, u) \ge g (|u|) \quad \mbox{in } {\mathbb R}^n $$ is trivial, where $m, n \ge 1$ are…

We study periodic tessellations of the Euclidean space with unequal cells arising from the minimization of perimeter functionals. Existence results and qualitative properties of minimizers are discussed for different classes of problems,…

The paper introduces a general strategy for identifying strong local minimizers of variational functionals. It is based on the idea that any variation of the integral functional can be evaluated directly in terms of the appropriate…

Here we obtain bounds on the spectrum of that operator whose inverse, when it exists, gives the Green's function. We consider the wide of physical problems that can be cast in a form where a constitutive equation ${\bf J}({\bf x})={\bf…

In this paper we present necessary and sufficient conditions (in terms of {\L}ojasiewicz inequalities) for the stability of local minimum points in smooth unconstrained optimization. In particular, we derive a sufficient condition for which…

While studying set function properties of Lebesgue measure, F. Barthe and M. Madiman proved that Lebesgue measure is fractionally superadditive on compact sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In doing this they proved a fractional generalization of the…

The aim of this short note is to give an alternative proof, which applies to functions of bounded variation in arbitrary domains, of an inequality by Maz'ya that improves Friedrichs inequality. A remarkable feature of such a proof is that…

We establish the Kolmogorov-Feller weak law of large numbers for Frechet mean on non-compact symmetric spaces under certain regularity conditions. Our results accommodate non-identically distributed random variables and are accompanied by…

In this paper we prove that if (u, K) is an almost-minimizer of the Griffith functional and K is $\epsilon$-close to a plane in some ball B $\subset$ R N while separating the ball B in two big parts, then K is C 1,$\alpha$ in a slightly…

We prove a general lower bound on Christoffel function on planar convex domains in terms of a modification of the parallel section function of the domain. For a certain class of planar convex domains, in combination with a recent general…

The Necessary Maximality Principle for c.c.c. forcing asserts that any statement about a real in a c.c.c. extension that could become true in a further c.c.c. extension and remain true in all subsequent c.c.c. extensions, is already true in…

We prove the local Lipschitz regularity of the minimizers of functionals of the form \[ \mathcal I(u)=\int_\Omega f(\nabla u(x))+g(x)u(x)\,dx\qquad u\in\phi+W^{1,1}_0(\Omega) \] where $g$ is bounded and $\phi$ satisfies the Lower Bounded…
