Verifying lower-semicontinuity of integral functionals in the weak topology of Sobolev spaces is a central theme in the calculus of variations. For integral functionals with $p$-growth, quasiconvexity is a necessary condition for weak…

Subject to suitable boundary conditions being imposed, sharp inequalities are obtained on integrals over a region $\Omega$ of certain special quadratic functions $f(\bf{E})$ where $\bf{E}(\bf{x})$ derives from a potential $\bf{U}(\bf{x})$.…

We prove a relaxation result for a quasi-convex bulk integral functional with variable exponent growth in a suitable space of bounded variation type. A key tool is a decomposition under mild assumptions of the energy into absolutely…

We first introduce the class of strictly quasiconvex and strictly quasiconcave Jensen divergences which are oriented (asymmetric) distances, and study some of their properties. We then define the strictly quasiconvex Bregman divergences as…

This paper is concerned with a PDE-based approach to the horizontally quasiconvex (h-quasiconvex for short) envelope of a given continuous function in the Heisenberg group. We provide a characterization for upper semicontinuous,…

We consider surfaces which minimize a nonlocal perimeter functional and we discuss their interior regularity and rigidity properties, in a quantitative and qualitative way, and their (perhaps rather surprising) boundary behavior. We present…

We consider the task of computing an approximate minimizer of the sum of a smooth and non-smooth convex functional, respectively, in Banach space. Motivated by the classical forward-backward splitting method for the subgradients in Hilbert…
