We study the semicontinuity of automorphism groups for perturbations of domains in complex space or in complex manifolds. We provide a new approach to the study of such results for domains having minimal boundary smoothness. The emphasis in…

In this manuscript, we delve into the study of maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega;\overline M)$ that minimize the Alt-Caffarelli energy functional $$ \int_\Omega (|Du|^2 + q^2 \chi_{u^{-1}(M)})\,dx, $$ under the condition that the image $u(\Omega)$…
Minimizing the so-called "Dirichlet energy" with respect to the domain under a volume constraint is a standard problem in shape optimization which is now well understood. This article is devoted to a prototypal non-linear version of the…
This paper discusses the regularity of multiple-valued Dirichlet minimizing maps into the sphere. It shows that even at branched point, as long as the normalized energy is small enough, we have the energy decay estimate. Combined with the…

We study a class of semilinear diffusion equations on infinite, connected, weighted graphs, focusing on two types of nonlinearities: monotone decreasing and Lipschitz continuous. Under minimal structural assumptions on the graph, we…
We consider weighted graphs with an infinite set of vertices. We show that boundedness of all functions of finite energy can be seen as a notion of `relative compactness' for such graphs and study sufficient and necessary conditions for…

We associate to any compact semi-algebraic set $X \subset \mathbb R^n$ a chain complex of currents $S_\ast (X)$ generated by integration along semi-algebraic submanifolds and we analyze the corresponding homology groups. In particular, we…
In this work, we consider an initial-boundary value problem for a time-fractional biharmonic equation in a bounded polygonal domain with a Lipschitz continuous boundary in $\mathbb{R}^2$ with clamped boundary conditions. After establishing…
We give a more elementary proof of a result by Ambrosio, Fusco and Hutchinson to estimate the Hausdorff dimension of the singular set of minimizers of the Mumford-Shah energy (see [2, Theorem 5.6]). On the one hand, we follow the strategy…
In this paper, we define natural capacities using a relative volume of graphs over manifolds, which can be characterized by solutions of bounded variation to Dirichlet problems of minimal hypersurface equation. Using the capacities, we…
In this paper we introduce a new semicontinuity notion, which is weaker than upper semicontinuity, and assures the closedness of the sets $G(y)=\{x\in K: f(x,y)\not\in -\inte C\}.$ Furhter, this semicontinuity is also closed under addition.…
