If $u : \Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d \to {\rm X}$ is a harmonic map valued in a metric space ${\rm X}$ and ${\sf E} : {\rm X} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a convex function, in the sense that it generates an ${\rm EVI}_0$-gradient flow, we prove that…

Let $\Gamma$ be a smooth, closed, oriented, $(n-1)$-dimensional submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. We show that there exist arbitrarily small perturbations $\Gamma'$ of $\Gamma$ with the property that minimizing integral $n$-currents with…

We study the relaxation of multiple integrals of the calculus of variations, where the integrands are nonconvex with convex effective domain and can take the value \infty. We use local techniques based on measure arguments to prove integral…

We establish local regularity results for minimizers of autonomous vectorial integrals of Calculus of Variations, assuming $\psi$-growth conditions and imposing $\varphi$-quasiconvexity only in an asymptotic sense, both in the sub-quadratic…

In this paper we prove that if (u, K) is an almost-minimizer of the Griffith functional and K is $\epsilon$-close to a plane in some ball B $\subset$ R N while separating the ball B in two big parts, then K is C 1,$\alpha$ in a slightly…

The aim of this paper is to study the heterogeneous optimization problem \begin{align*} \mathcal {J}(u)=\int_{\Omega}(G(|\nabla u|)+qF(u^+)+hu+\lambda_{+}\chi_{\{u>0\}} )\text{d}x\rightarrow\text{min}, \end{align*} in the class of functions…

In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing functionals of the form $E(u)=\int_B f(x,\nabla u) \,dx$ in a suitably prepared class of incompressible, planar maps $u: B \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^2$. Here, $B$ is the unit disk and…

In this paper we study regularity and topological properties of volume constrained minimizers of quasi-perimeters in $\sf RCD$ spaces where the reference measure is the Hausdorff measure. A quasi-perimeter is a functional given by the sum…

In this paper we prove some integral estimates on the minimal growth of the positive part $u_+$ of subsolutions of quasilinear equations \[ \mathrm{div} A(x,u,\nabla u) = V|u|^{p-2}u \] on complete Riemannian manifolds $M$, in the…

If $f=u+iv$ is analytic in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$, it is known that the integral means $M_p(r,u)$ and $M_p(r,v)$ have the same order of growth. This is false if $f$ is a (complex-valued) harmonic function. However, we prove that the…

We study the regularity of minimizers of the functional $\mathcal E(u):= [u]_{H^s(\Omega)}^2 +\int_\Omega fu$. This corresponds to understanding solutions for the regional fractional Laplacian in $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^N$. More precisely,…

In this article we study functionals of the type considered in \cite{HS21}, i.e. $$ J(v):=\int_{B_1} A(x,u)|\nabla u|^2 +f(x,u)u+ Q(x)\lambda (u)\,dx $$ here $A(x,u)= A_+(x)\chi_{\{u>0\}}+A_-(x) \chi _{\{u<0\}}$, $f(x,u)=…

We study vector-valued almost minimizers of the energy functional $$\int_D\left(|\nabla\mathbf{u}|^2+\frac2{1+q}\left(\lambda_+(x)|\mathbf{u}^+|^{q+1}+\lambda_-(x)|\mathbf{u}^-|^{q+1}\right)\right)dx,\quad0<q<1.$$ For H\"older continuous…

For any $n\ge 2$, $\Omega\subset\rn$, and any given convex and coercive Hamiltonian function $H\in C^{0}(\rn)$, we find an optimal sufficient condition on $H$, that is, for any $c\in\mathbb R$, the level set $H^{-1}(c)$ does not contains…

We revisit the question of regularity for minimizers of scalar autonomous integral functionals with so-called $(p,q)$-growth. In particular, we establish Lipschitz regularity under the condition $\frac{q}p<1+\frac{2}{n-1}$ for $n\geq3$…
