The calculus of finite differences is a solid foundation for the development of operations such as the derivative and the integral for infinite sequences. Here we showed a way to extend it for finite sequences. We could then define…
We consider shape optimization problems for general integral functionals of the calculus of variations, defined on a domain $\Omega$ that varies over all subdomains of a given bounded domain $D$ of ${\bf R}^d$. We show in a rather…

Main results and techniques of the fractional calculus of variations are surveyed. We consider variational problems containing Caputo derivatives and study them using both indirect and direct methods. In particular, we provide necessary…
This book intends to deepen the study of the fractional calculus, giving special emphasis to variable-order operators. It is organized in two parts, as follows. In the first part, we review the basic concepts of fractional calculus (Chapter…
We study the fundamental problem of the calculus of variations with variable order fractional operators. Fractional integrals are considered in the sense of Riemann-Liouville while derivatives are of Caputo type.
The discrete-time, the quantum, and the continuous calculus of variations have been recently unified and extended. Two approaches are followed in the literature: one dealing with minimization of delta integrals; the other dealing with…
The notion of type of a differential 2-form in four variables is introduced and for 2-forms of type < 4, local normal models are given. If the type of a 2-form $\Omega$ is 4, then the equivalence under diffeomorphisms of $\Omega$ is reduced…
Recently, Ali et al defined the class $\mathcal{W}_{\beta}(\alpha, \gamma)$ consisting of functions $f$ which satisfy $$\Re e^{i\phi}\left((1-\alpha+2\gamma)\frac{f(z)}{z}+(\alpha-2\gamma)f'(z)+\gamma zf''(z)-\beta\right)>0,$$ for all $z\in…

This work contains an exposition of foundations of the variational calculus in fibered manifolds. The emphasis is laid on the geometric aspects of the theory. Especially functionals defined by real functions (Lagrange functions) or…
In this paper we provide a different approach for existence of the variational solutions of the gradient flows associated to functionals on Sobolev spaces studied in \cite{BDDMS20}. The crucial condition is the convexity of the functional…
Let $\Omega$ be a $m$-hyperconvex domain of $\mathbb{C}^n$ and $\beta$ be the standard K\"{a}hler form in $\mathbb{C}^n$. We introduce finite energy classes of $m$-subharmonic functions of Cegrell type, $\mathcal{E}_m^p, p>0$ and…
Let $dx_i/dt=f_i(x_1,\cdots,x_n)$, ($i=1,\cdots,n$) be a system of $n$ first order autonomous ordinary differential equations. We use E. Cartan's equivalence method to study the invariants of this system under diffeomorphisms of the form…
The inverse problem of the calculus of variations consists in determining if the solutions of a given system of second order differential equations correspond with the solutions of the Euler-Lagrange equations for some regular Lagrangian.…
Denote by $\tau$ k (n), $\omega$(n) and $\mu$ 2 (n) the number of representations of n as product of k natural numbers, the number of distinct prime factors of n and the characteristic function of the square-free integers, respectively. Let…
This is a conitunation of [1] and [2]. We prove that if function $f$ belongs to the class $\Lambda_{\omega} \overset{\text{def}}{=} \{f: \omega_{f}(\delta)\leq \text{const} \omega(\delta)\} $ for an arbitrary modulus of continuity $\omega$,…
