Minimizers in the least gradient problem with discontinuous boundary data need not be unique. However, all of them have a similar structure of level sets. Here, we give a full characterization of the set of minimizers in terms of any one of…
We study the two dimensional least gradient problem in convex polygonal sets in the plane, $\Omega$. We show the existence of solutions when the boundary data $f$ are attained in the trace sense. The main difficulty here is a possible…
We study the two dimensional least gradient problem in a convex polygonal set in the plane. We show existence of solutions when the boundary data are attained in the trace sense. Due to the lack of strict convexity, the classical results…

It is well-known that convex variational problems with linear growth and Dirichlet boundary conditions might not have minimizers if the boundary condition is not suitably relaxed. We show that for a wide range of integrands, including the…
We study the two dimensional least gradient problem in a convex, but not necessary strictly convex region. We look for solutions in the space of $BV$ functions satisfying the boundary data $f$ in trace sense. We assume that $f$ is in $BV$…
We propose here a proof of existence of a minimizer of a segmentation functional based on a priori information on target shapes, and formulated with level sets. The existence of a minimizer is very important, because it guarantees the…
We study two special cases of the planar least gradient problem. In the first one, the boundary conditions are imposed on a part of the strictly convex domain. In the second case, we impose the Dirichlet data on the boundary of a rectangle,…
We show existence of solutions to the least gradient problem on the plane for boundary data in $BV(\partial\Omega)$. We also provide an example of a function $f \in L^1(\partial\Omega) \backslash (C(\partial\Omega) \cup…

We investigate regularity properties of minimizers for non-autonomous convex variational integrands $F(x, \mathrm{D} u)$ with linear growth, defined on bounded Lipschitz domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$. Assuming appropriate…
We provide an analysis of the least gradient problem in the case when the boundary datum is only imposed on a part of the boundary. First, we give a characterisation of solutions in a general setting using convex duality theory. Then, we…
We study existence of minimizers of the least gradient problem \[\inf_{v \in BV_g} \int_{\Omega}\varphi(x, Dv),\] where $BV_g=\{v \in BV(\Omega): \int_{\partial \Omega}gv=1\}$, $\varphi(x,p): \Omega\times \R^n \rightarrow \R$ is a convex,…
We study the least gradient problem in bounded regions with Lipschitz boundary in the plane. We provide a set of conditions for the existence of solutions in non-convex simply connected regions. We assume the boundary data is continuous and…
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 study the minimal surface equation in the Heisenberg space, Nil_3. A geometric proof of non existence of minimal graphs over non convex, bounded and unbounded domains is achieved (our proof holds in the Euclidean space as well). We solve…
We consider the area functional for t-graphs in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group and study minimizers of the associated Dirichlet problem. We prove that, under a bounded slope condition on the boundary datum, there exists a unique…
We consider the minimization property of a Gagliardo-Slobodeckij seminorm which can be seen as the fractional counterpart of the classical problem of functions of least gradient and which is related to the minimization of the nonlocal…
Given a C2-domain with compact boundary in an arbitrary complete Riemannian manifold, we search for smallness conditions on the boundary data for which the Dirichlet problem for the minimal hypersurface equation is solvable. We obtain an…
