We study an inhomogeneous Neumann boundary value problem for functions of least gradient on bounded domains in metric spaces that are equipped with a doubling measure and support a Poincar\'e inequality. We show that solutions exist under…
We present a new duality theory for non-convex variational problems, under possibly mixed Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. The dual problem reads nicely as a linear programming problem, and our main result states that there is no…
We consider the "thin one-phase" free boundary problem, associated to minimizing a weighted Dirichlet energy of the function in $\mathbb R^{n+1}_+$ plus the area of the positivity set of that function in $\mathbb R^n$. We establish full…
It is shown that solutions of the Neumann problem for the Poisson equation in an arbitrary convex $n$-dimensional domain are uniformly Lipschitz. Applications of this result to some aspects of regularity of solutions to the Neumann problem…
The main result of this paper is a proof of the continuity of a family of integral functionals defined on the space of functions of bounded variation with respect to a topology under which smooth functions are dense. These functionals occur…
We study the solution of the d-bar-Neumann problem on (0,1)-forms on the product of two half-planes in C^2. In, particular, we show the solution can be decomposed into functions smooth up to the boundary and functions which are singular at…

In this paper we study the regularity of the local minima of integral functionals: in particular, not convexity (quasi-convexity, policonvexity or rank one convexity) hypothesis will be made on the density, neither structure hypothesis nor…
We consider a nonlocal differential equation of Kirchhoff type with a convolution coefficient involving variable growth. The novelty of our work lies in allowing a variable exponent in the nonlocal term. By relating the variable growth…

The problem of obtaining the lower bounds on the restriction of Laplacian eigenfunctions to hypersurfaces inside a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ is challenging and has been attempted by many authors \cite{BR, GRS, Jun, ET}. This paper…
This work addresses the question of uniqueness and regularity of the minimizers of a convex but not strictly convex integral functional with linear growth in a two-dimensional setting. The integrand -- whose precise form derives directly…
Lawson and Osserman proved that the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface system is not always solvable in the class of Lipschitz maps. However, it is known that minimizing sequences (for area) of Lipschitz graphs converge to objects…
