We consider rotationally symmetric $p$-harmonic maps from the unit disk $D^2\subset\real^2$ to the unit sphere $S^2\subset\real^3$, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions and with $1<p<\infty$. We show that the associated energy…

We deal with a class of equations driven by nonlocal, possibly degenerate, integro-differential operators of differentiability order $s\in (0,1)$ and summability growth $p>1$, whose model is the fractional $p$-Laplacian with measurable…
We continue our previous work studying critical exponent semilinear elliptic (and subelliptic) problems which generalize the classical Yamabe problem. In [3] the focus was on metric-measure spaces with an `almost smooth' structure, with…
The Convex Envelope of a given function was recently characterized as the solution of a fully nonlinear Partial Differential Equation (PDE). In this article we study a modified problem: the Dirichlet problem for the underlying PDE. The main…
This paper deals with the Cauchy-Dirichlet problem for the fractional Cahn-Hilliard equation. The main results consist of global (in time) existence of weak solutions, characterization of parabolic smoothing effects (implying under proper…

A new approach is introduced for deriving a mixed variational formulation for Kirchhoff plate bending problems with mixed boundary conditions involving clamped, simply supported, and free boundary parts. Based on a regular decomposition of…
We introduce a new variational method for the numerical homogenization of divergence form elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic equations with arbitrary rough ($L^\infty$) coefficients. Our method does not rely on concepts of ergodicity or…
We prove the unique solvability for the Poisson and heat equations in non-smooth domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ in weighted Sobolev spaces. The zero Dirichlet boundary condition is considered, and domains are merely assumed to admit…
We consider the Dirichlet problem for the nonlinear $p(x)$-Laplacian equation. For axially symmetric domains we prove that, under suitable assumptions, there exist Mountain-pass solutions which exhibit partial symmetry. Furthermore, we show…
We establish a Talenti-type symmetrization result in the form of mass concentration (i.e. integral comparison) for very general linear nonlocal elliptic problems, equipped with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. In this framework,…
We present an extension of an algorithm for the classical scalar $p$-Laplace Dirichlet problem to the vector-valued $p$-Laplacian with mixed boundary conditions in order to solve problems occurring in shape optimization using a $p$-harmonic…
The central theme in this paper is the Hopf-Laplace equation, which represents stationary solutions with respect to the inner variation of the Dirichlet integral. Among such solutions are harmonic maps. Nevertheless, minimization of the…
