We investigate local minimizers of Ginzburg--Landau-type functionals in dimension $n\geq 3$ that satisfy logarithmic energy bounds, assuming the potential has a vacuum manifold with a finite fundamental group. We show that the normalized…

We introduce a new regularizer in the total variation family that promotes reconstructions with a given Lipschitz constant (which can also vary spatially). We prove regularizing properties of this functional and investigate its connections…

We prove a partial regularity result for local minimizers of quasiconvex variational integrals with general growth. The main tool is an improved A-harmonic approximation, which should be interesting also for classical growth.

The purpose of this article is to prove sharp $L^p$ bounds for quasimodes of Berezin-Toeplitz operators. We consider examples with explicit computations and a general situation on compact spaces and $\mathbb{C}^n$. In both cases the…

In this note we prove two monotonicity formulas for solutions of $\Delta_H f = c$ and $\Delta_H f - \p_t f = c$ in Carnot groups. Such formulas involve the right-invariant \emph{carr\'e du champ} of a function and they are false for the…
