We consider the minimization of a p-Ginzburg-Landau energy functional over the class of radially symmetric functions of degree one. We prove the existence of a unique minimizer in this class, and show that its modulus is monotone increasing…
As a sequel to our previous analysis in [9] arXiv:2202.09411 on the Gross-Pitaevskii equation on the product space $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{T}$, we construct a branch of finite energy travelling waves as minimizers of the Ginzburg-Landau…
Conformal matter collineations of the energy-momentum tensor for a general spherically symmetric static spacetime are studied. The general form of these collineations is found when the energy-momentum tensor is non-degenerate, and the…
We study locally conformally homogeneous Lorentzian manifolds of dimension at least $3$, admitting an essential pseudo-group of local conformal transformations. Generalizing a recent result of Alekseevsky and Galaev, we show that any such…
In this paper we consider the minimizers of the interaction energies with the power-law interaction potentials $W({\bf x}) = \frac{|{\bf x}|^a}{a} - \frac{|{\bf x}|^b}{b}$ in $d$ dimensions. For odd $d$ with $(a,b)=(3,2-d)$ and even $d$…
We have found that the minimum energy configuration of $N=395$ charges confined in a disk and interacting via the Coulomb potential, reported by Cerkaski et al. in Ref.~\cite{Cerkaski15} is not a global minimum of the total electrostatic…
For various values of n, d, and the phase space dimension, we construct simple examples of Hamiltonian and reversible systems possessing smooth d-parameter families of invariant n-tori carrying conditionally periodic motions. In the…
A peculiarity of the geometry of the euclidean 3-sphere $\S3$ is that it allows for the existence of compact without boundary minimally immersed surfaces. Despite a wealthy of examples of such surfaces, the only known tori minimally…
We are concerned with the following constrained minimization problem: $$e(a_{1},a_{2},\beta) := \inf\left\{E_{a_{1},a_{2},\beta}(u_{1},u_{2}): \|u_{1}\|_{L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{3})} = \|u_{2}\|_{L^{2}(\mathbb{R}^{3})} = 1\right\},$$ where…
Let $\T (0\leq \alpha <n)$ be the singular and fractional integrals with variable kernel $\Omega(x,z)$, and $[b,\T]$ be the commutator generated by $\T$ and a Lipschitz function $b$. In this paper, the authors study the boundedness of…
Using the reformulation in divergence form of the Euler-Lagrange equation for the Willmore functional as it was developed in "Analysis of the Willmore Functional" by T. Riviere (Invent. Math. 174), we study the limit of a local Palais-Smale…
We prove the local boundedness of the solutions to degenerate second order partial differential equations of Kolmogorov type with measurable coefficients in divergence form, under minimal integrability assumption on the lower order…
It is well known that a strictly convex minimand admits at most one minimizer. We prove a partial converse: Let $X$ be a locally convex Hausdorff space and $f \colon X \mapsto \left( - \infty , \infty \right]$ a function with compact…
We establish the local boundedness of the local minimizers $u:\Omega\rightarrow\mathbb{R}^{m}$ of non-uniformly elliptic integrals of the form $\int_{\Omega}f(x,Dv)\,dx$, where $\Omega$ is a bounded open subset of $\mathbb{R}^{n}$…
In this paper, we investigate the constrained minimization problem \begin{equation}\label{eq:0.1} e(a):=\inf_{\{u\in \mathcal{H},\|u\|_2^2=1\}}E_a(u), \end{equation} where the energy functional \begin{equation} \label{eq:0.2}…
We consider a geometrically fully nonlinear variational model for thin elastic sheets that contain a single disclination. The free elastic energy contains the thickness $h$ as a small parameter. We give an improvement of a recently proved…
We prove the existence of minimizers in the class of negative definite measures on compact subsets of momentum space in the homogeneous setting under several side conditions (constraints). The method is to employ Prohorov's theorem. Given a…
We study the energy functional on the set of Lagrangian tori in $\mathbb{C}P^2$ . We prove that the value of the energy functional on a certain family of Hamiltonian minimal Lagrangian tori in $\mathbb{C}P^2$ is strictly larger than energy…
We introduce, on a complex Kahler manifold (M,\omega), a notion of energy for harmonic currents of bidegree (1,1). This allows us to define $\int T \wedge T \wedge \omega^{k-2},$ for positive harmonic currents. We then show that for a…
We show that the Weak Gravity Conjecture (WGC) implies a nontrivial upper bound on the volumes of the minimal-volume cycles in certain homology classes that admit no calibrated representatives. In compactification of type IIB string theory…
