We study a class of integral functionals known as nonlocal perimeters, which, intuitively, express a weighted interaction between a set and its complement. The weight is provided by a positive kernel K, which might be singular. In the first…

Let $M$ be a weighted manifold with boundary $\partial M$, i.e., a Riemannian manifold where a density function is used to weight the Riemannian Hausdorff measures. In this paper we compute the first and the second variational formulas of…

For a class of functions (called minimal Rad\'o functions) that arise naturally in minimal surface theory, we bound the number of interior critical points (counting multiplicity) in terms of the boundary data and the Euler characteristic of…

In the past perfect surfaces have been shown to yield a local critical behaviour that differs from the bulk critical behaviour. On the other hand surface defects, whether they are of natural origin or created artificially, are known to…

This paper investigates the existence and qualitative properties of minimizers for a class of nonlocal micromagnetic energy functionals defined on bounded domains. The considered energy functional consists of a symmetric exchange…

This short note is the announcement of a forthcoming work in which we prove a first general boundary regularity result for area-minimizing currents in higher codimension, without any geometric assumption on the boundary, except that it is…

We study the boundary regularity of almost minimal and quasiminimal sets that satisfy sliding boundary conditions. The competitors of a set $E$ are defined as $F = \varphi_1(E)$, where $\{ \varphi_t \}$ is a one parameter family of…
