We consider the isoperimetric problem in $\mathbb R^n$ with density for the planar case $n=2$. We show that, if the density is ${\rm C}^{0,\alpha}$, then the boundary of any isoperimetric is of class ${\rm C}^{1,\frac \alpha{3-2\alpha}}$.…

In this paper, we study the existence and multiplicity of solutions for the following fractional problem involving the Hardy potential and concave-convex nonlinearities: $$({-}{ \Delta})^{\frac{\alpha}{2}}u- \gamma \frac{u}{|x|^{\alpha}}=…

Given the Caputo-type fractional differential equation $D^\alpha y(t) = f(t, y(t))$ with $\alpha \in (1, 2)$, we consider two distinct solutions $y_1, y_2 \in C[0,T]$ to this equation subject to different sets of initial conditions. In this…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions on weights $u_1, u_2, v_1, v_2$, i.e. measurable, positive, and finite, a.e. on $(a,b)$, for which there exists a positive constant $C$ such that for given $0 < p_1,q_1,p_2,q_2 <\infty$ the…

We continue the study of the space $BV^\alpha(\mathbb{R}^n)$ of functions with bounded fractional variation in $\mathbb{R}^n$ of order $\alpha\in(0,1)$ introduced in arXiv:1809.08575, by dealing with the asymptotic behaviour of the…

We investigate the regularity of the positive roots of a non-negative function of one-variable. A modified H\"older space $\mathcal{F}^\beta$ is introduced such that if $f\in \mathcal{F}^\beta$ then $f^\alpha \in C^{\alpha \beta}$. This…

Let $G=(V, E)$ be a connected finite graph, $h$ be a positive function on $V$ and $\lambda _{1}(V)$ be the first non-zero eigenvalue of $-\Delta$. For any given finite measure $\mu$ on $V$, define functionals \begin{eqnarray*} J_{ \beta…

Using a groundstate transformation, we give a new proof of the optimal Stein-Weiss inequality of Herbst [\int_{\R^N} \int_{\R^N} \frac{\varphi (x)}{\abs{x}^\frac{\alpha}{2}} I_\alpha (x - y) \frac{\varphi (y)}{\abs{y}^\frac{\alpha}{2}}\dif…

In this paper, we consider a problem in calculus of variations motivated by a quantitative isoperimetric inequality in the plane. More precisely, the aim of this article is the computation of the minimum of the variational problem…

We study the regularity of the free boundary in the parabolic obstacle problem for the fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^s$ (and more general integro-differential operators) in the regime $s>\frac{1}{2}$. We prove that once the free boundary…

$\Delta \psi:=\frac{\partial^2 \psi}{\partial x_1^2}+\frac{\partial^2 \psi}{\partial x_2^2}$ being locally bounded does not imply that $D^2\psi$ is locally bounded. However, we prove that if $\psi$ is invariant under rotation by…

Based on the results in the previous papers that the boundary value problem $y'' - y' + y = y^3, y(0) = 0, y(\infty) =1$ with the condition $y(x) > 0$ for $0<x<\infty$ has a unique solution $y^*(x)$, and $a^*= y^{*^{'}}(0)$ satisfies…

We study the good shape property of boundary sections of convex solutions of the oblique boundary value problem for Monge-Amp\`ere equations $$\det D^2u =f(x) \text{ in } \Omega , \quad D_{\beta}u = \phi(x) \text{ on } \partial \Omega.$$ In…

Let C in C_1xC_2 be a curve of type (d_1,d_2) in the product of the two curves C_1 and C_2. Let d be a positive integer. We prove that if a certain inequality involving d_1, d_2, d, and the genera of the curves C_1, C_2, and C is satisfied,…

We study the higher regularity of free boundaries in obstacle problems for integro-differential operators. Our main result establishes that, once free boundaries are $C^{1,\alpha}$, then they are $C^\infty$. This completes the study of…

We study the higher regularity of solutions and free boundaries in the Alt-Phillips problem $\Delta u=u^{\gamma-1}$, with $\gamma\in(0,1)$. Our main results imply that, once free boundaries are $C^{1,\alpha}$, then they are $C^\infty$. In…

We develop a variational approach to the minimization problem of functionals of the type $\frac12\left\lVert \nabla \phi \right\rVert^2_2 + \beta \left\lVert \phi \right\rVert_1$ constrained by $\left\lVert \phi \right\rVert_2 = 1$ which is…

We get a new multiplicity result for gradient systems. Here is a very particular corollary: Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ ($n\geq 2$) be a smooth bounded domain and let $\Phi:{\bf R}^2\to {\bf R}$ be a $C^1$ function, with $\Phi(0,0)=0$,…

We show that for any $\alpha>0$ the R\'enyi entropy of order $\alpha$ is minimized, among all symmetric log-concave random variables with fixed variance, either for a uniform distribution or for a two sided exponential distribution. The…

We use techniques of dyadic analysis in order to prove that, for every $0<s<\tfrac{1}{2}$, there exists a positive constant $\gamma(s)$ such that the inequality $$\left(\iint_{\mathbb{R}^2}|x-y|^{2s-1}|\varphi(x)||\varphi(y)|dx…
