Given a smooth complete Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry $(M,g)$ and a linear connection $\nabla$ on it (not necessarily a metric one), we prove the $L^p$-boundedness of operators belonging to the global pseudo-differential classes…
We investigate a natural approximation by subcritical Sobolev embeddings of the Sobolev quotient for the fractional Sobolev spaces $H^s$ for any $0<s<N/2$, using $\Gamma$-convergence techniques. We show that, for such approximations,…
We study higher regularity for weak solutions of the $p$-Laplace equation $-\Delta_p u = f$ in a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ for $p$ sufficiently close to 2. For $m \ge 3$, assuming that $f$ satisfies suitable Sobolev and H\"older…
Given a family of locally Lipschitz vector fields $X(x)=(X_1(x),\dots,X_m(x))$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, $m\leq n$, we study functionals depending on $X$. We prove an integral representation for local functionals with respect to $X$ and a result…
Consider the following inequalities due to Caffarelli, Kohn and Nirenberg {\it (Compositio Mathematica,1984):} $$\Big(\int_\Omega \frac{|u|^r}{|x|^s}dx\Big)^{\frac{1}{r}}\leq C(p,q,r,\mu,\sigma,s)\Big(\int_\Omega \frac{|\nabla…
Let $\Omega$ be an $n$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold $(n \geq 3)$ with $C^\infty$ boundary, and consider $L^2$-normalized eigenfunctions $ - \Delta \phi_{\lambda} = \lambda^2 \phi_\lambda$ with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of weak solutions to the model equation $$-\Delta_p u=\sigma \, u^q \quad \text{on} \, \, \, \R^n,$$ in the case $0<q<p-1$, where $\sigma\ge 0$ is an arbitrary locally integrable…
We study homogenization by $\Gamma$-convergence of periodic nonconvex integrals when the integrand has quasiconvex growth with convex effective domain.
Let $\Gamma$ be a graph equipped with a Markov operator $P$. We introduce discrete fractional Littlewood-Paley square functionals and prove their $L^p$-boundedness under various geometric assumptions on $\Gamma$.
In this note we show the existence of at least three nontrivial solutions to the following quasilinear elliptic equation $-\Delta_p u = |u|^{p^*-2}u + \lambda f(x,u)$ in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ of $\R^N$ with homogeneous Dirichlet…
We consider nonlocal equations of the type \[ (-\Delta_{p})^{s}u = \mu \quad \text{in }\Omega, \] where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ is either a bounded domain or the whole $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $\mu$ is a Radon measure on $\Omega$, $0<s<1$…
We present an extension of the classical De Giorgi class, and then we show that functions in this new class are locally bounded and locally H\"older continuous. Some applications are given. As a first application, we give a regularity…
The aim of this paper is to deal with the asymptotics of generalized Orlicz norms when the lower growth rate tends to infinity. $\Gamma$-convergence results and related representation theorems in terms of $L^\infty$ functionals are proven…
We present examples of geometrically finite manifolds with pinched negative curvature, whose geodesic flow has infinite non-ergodic Bowen-Margulis measure and whose Poincar\'e series converges at the critical exponent $\delta_\Gamma$. We…

This paper mainly addresses the extrema of a nonconvex functional with double-well potential in higher dimensions through the approach of nonlinear partial differential equations. Based on the canonical duality method, the corresponding…
The $p$-Laplacian operator $\Delta_pu={\rm div }\left(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u\right)$ is not uniformly elliptic for any $p\in(1,2)\cup(2,\infty)$ and degenerates even more when $p\to \infty$ or $p\to 1$. In those two cases the Dirichlet…
We study the $H$-convergence of nonlocal linear operators in fractional divergence form, where the oscillations of the matrices are prescribed outside the reference domain. Our compactness argument bypasses the failure of the classical…
We show that certain monotone functionals on the Hardy spaces and convex functionals on the Bergman spaces are maximized at the normalized reproducing kernels among the functions of norm $1$, thus proving the contractivity conjecture of…
