We reprove a result by Ren and Wei concerning the periodicity of minimizers of a one-dimensional liquid drop model in the neutral case. Our proof works for general boundary conditions and also in the non-neutral case.

We study the patch dynamics on the whole plane and on the half-plane for a family of active scalars called modified SQG equations. These involve a parameter $\alpha$ which appears in the power of the kernel in their Biot-Savart laws and…

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…

This article concerns with the global H\"older regularity of weak solutions to a class of problems involving the fractional $(p,q)$-Laplacian, denoted by $(-\Delta)^{s_1}_{p}+(-\Delta)^{s_2}_{q}$, for $1<p,q<\infty$ and $s_1,s_2\in (0,1)$.…
