We consider the minimizers of $L^{2}$-critical inhomogeneous variational problems with a spatially decaying nonlinear term in an open bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$ which contains $0$. We prove that there is a threshold…

We prove existence results that give information about the space of minimal immersions of 2-tori into $ S ^ 3 $. More specifically, we show that \begin{enumerate} \item For every positive integer $ n $, there are countably many real $n…

Since the pioneering work of Canham and Helfrich, variational formulations involving curvature-dependent functionals, like the classical Willmore functional, have proven useful for shape analysis of biomembranes. We address minimizers of…

This article is concerned with the problem of minimising the Willmore energy in the class of \emph{connected} surfaces with prescribed area which are confined to a small container. We propose a phase field approximation based on De Giorgi's…

We study the problem of conservation of maximal and lower-dimensional invariant tori for analytic convex quasi-integrable Hamiltonian systems. In the absence of perturbation the lower-dimensional tori are degenerate, in the sense that the…

Following Brown[1], we construct composite operators for the scalar $\phi^3$ theory in six dimensions using renormalisation group methods with dimensional regularisation. We express bare scalar operators in terms of renormalised composite…

We explore the theory of electrons confined by one dimensional power law potentials. We calculate the density profile in the high density electron gas, the low density Wigner crystal, and the intermediate regime. We extract the momentum…

We consider a class of a priori stable quasi-integrable analytic Hamiltonian systems and study the regularity of low-dimensional hyperbolic invariant tori as functions of the perturbation parameter. We show that, under natural nonresonance…

We show that the quantization of energy for Willmore spheres into closed Riemannian manifolds holds provided that the Willmore energy and the area are uniformly bounded. The analogous energy quantization result holds for Willmore surfaces…

We classify the simple restricted modules for the minimal $p$-envelope of the non-graded, non-restricted Hamiltonian Lie algebra $H(2; (1,1); \Phi(1))$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p \geq 5$. We also give the…

We consider, in a smooth bounded multiply connected domain $\dom\subset\R^2$, the Ginzburg-Landau energy $\d E_\v(u)=1/2\int_\dom{|\n u|^2}+\frac{1}{4\v^2}\int_\dom{(1-|u|^2)^2}$ subject to prescribed degree conditions on each component of…

We study the one-dimensional symmetry of solutions to the nonlinear Stokes equation $$ \begin{cases} -\Delta u+\nabla W(u)=\nabla p&\text{in }\mathbb{R}^d,\\ \nabla\cdot u=0&\text{in }\mathbb{R}^d, \end{cases} $$ which are periodic in the…

We study static 180 degree domain walls in infinite magnetic wires with bounded, $C^1$ and rotationally symmetric cross sections. We prove an existence of global minimizers for the energy of micromagnetics for any bounded $C^1$ cross…

We study isometric immersions of a Riemannian surface $(\Omega,\frak{g})$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$, into $\mathbb{R}^3$. We consider their bending energy, i.e., the square of the $L^2$-norm of their second fundamental form,…

The paper is devoted to the variational analysis of the Willmore, and other L^2 curvature functionals, among immersions of 2-dimensional surfaces into a compact riemannian m-manifold (M^m,h) with m>2. The goal of the paper is twofold, on…

In this paper we study equivariant constrained Willmore tori in the 3-sphere. These tori admit a 1-parameter group of M\"obius symmetries and are critical points of the Willmore energy under conformal variations. We show that the associated…

In this paper we consider nonlocal energies defined on probability measures in the plane, given by a convolution interaction term plus a quadratic confinement. The interaction kernel is $-\log|z|+\alpha\, x^2/|z|^2, \; z=x+iy,$ with $-1 <…

The constrained minimisers of convex integral functionals of the form $\mathscr F(v)=\int_\Omega F(\nabla^k v(x))\mathrm d x $ defined on Sobolev mappings $v\in \mathrm W^{k,1}_g(\Omega , \mathbb R^N )\cap K$, where $K$ is a closed convex…

The study deals with a minimal energy problem over noncompact classes of infinite dimensional vector measures in a locally compact space. The components are positive measures (charges) satisfying certain normalizing assumptions and…

We investigate the Hawking energy of small surfaces in space times without symmetry assumptions by introducing the notion of Hawking type functionals. In particular, we find that Hawking type functionals are generalized Willmore functionals…
