This paper studies the Neumann boundary value problems for the Stokes equations in a convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We obtain nontangential-maximal-function estimates in $L^p$ and $W^{1, p}$ estimates for $p$ in certain ranges depending…
We solve the Neumann problem in the half space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}_+$, for higher order elliptic differential equations with variable self-adjoint $t$-independent coefficients, and with boundary data in the negative smoothness space $\dot…
We investigate the existence, uniqueness, and $L^1$-contractivity of weak solutions to a porous medium equation with fractional diffusion on an evolving hypersurface. To settle the existence, we reformulate the equation as a local problem…
In this paper we consider the minimization of a novel class of fractional linear growth functionals involving the Riesz fractional gradient. These functionals lack the coercivity properties in the fractional Sobolev spaces needed to apply…
We show subellipticity of the d-bar Neumann problem on domains with Lipschitz boundary in the presence of plurisubharmonic functions with Hessians of algebraic growth. In particular, a subelliptic estimate holds near a point where the…
In this work, we study the relaxation of a degenerate functional with linear growth, depending on a weight $w$ that does not exhibit doubling or Muckenhoupt-type conditions. In order to obtain an explicit representation of the relaxed…

Let F be nonnegative, convex and smooth off a compact set K. We prove that continuous local minimisers of convex functionals are "very weak" viscosity solutions in the sense of Juutinen-Lindqvist of the highly singular Euler-Lagrange PDE…
We announce new existence and $\varepsilon$-regularity results for minimisers of the relaxation of strongly quasiconvex integrals that on smooth maps $u\colon\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R}^{N}$ are defined by $$u\mapsto…
In this paper we analyze the behavior of solutions of the Neumann problem posed in a thin domain of the type $R^\epsilon = \{(x_1,x_2) \in \R^2 \; | \; x_1 \in (0,1), \, - \, \epsilon \, b(x_1) < x_2 < \epsilon \, G(x_1,…
We establish general assumptions under which a constrained vari- ational problem involving the fractional gradient and a local nonlin- earity admits minimizers.
Nonconvex functionals with spherical symmetry are studied. Existence of one and radial symmetry of all global minimizers is shown with an approach based on convex relaxation.
In this work, we study the minimization of nonlinear functionals in dimension $d\geq 1$ that depend on a degenerate radial weight $w$. Our goal is to prove the existence of minimizers in a suitable functional class here introduced and to…
We investigate the properties of minimizers of one-dimensional variational problems when the Lagrangian has no higher smoothness than continuity. An elementary approximation result is proved, but it is shown that this cannot be in general…
We establish existence of positive non-decreasing radial solutions for a nonlocal nonlinear Neumann problem both in the ball and in the annulus. The nonlinearity that we consider is rather general, allowing for supercritical growth (in the…
We revisit the question of existence and regularity of minimizers to weighted least gradient problems on a fixed bounded domain, subject to a Dirichlet boundary condition, in the case where the boundary data is continuous and the weight…
We study $H^1$ versus $C^1$ local minimizers for functionals defined on spaces of symmetric functions, namely functions that are invariant by the action of some subgroups of $\mathcal{O}(N)$. These functionals, in many cases, are associated…
