Let $\Omega$ be an unbounded domain in $\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}^{d}.$ A positive harmonic function $u$ on $\Omega$ that vanishes on the boundary of $\Omega$ is called a Martin function. In this note, we show that, when $\Omega$ is…

We address the deterministic homogenization, in the general context of ergodic algebras, of a doubly nonlinear problem which generalizes the well known Stefan model, and includes the classical porous medium equation. It may be represented…
In this work, we revisit the following estimate due to Dahlberg \cite{Dahl}. Let $\textit{\textbf x}_0$ a fixed point in a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega$. Then there exists a constant $C > 0$ such that if $u$ is a harmonic function in…
We consider the family of non-local and non-convex functionals introduced by H. Brezis and H.-M. Nguyen in a recent paper. These functionals Gamma-converge to a multiple of the Sobolev norm or the total variation, depending on a summability…
We consider autonomous integral functionals of the form $\mathcal F[u]:=\int_\Omega f(D u)\,dx$ with $u:\Omega\to\mathbb R^N$ $N\geq1$, where the convex integrand $f$ satisfies controlled $(p,q)$-growth conditions. We establish higher…
We prove higher integrability for local minimizers of the double-phase orthotropic functional \[ \sum_{i=1}^{n}\int_\Omega\left(\left|u_{x_i}\right|^p+a(x)\left| u_{x_i}\right|^q\right)dx \] when the weight function $a \geq0$ is assumed to…
We consider the Wulff-type energy functional $$ \mathcal{W}_\Omega(u) := \int_\Omega B(H(\nabla u (x))) - F(u(x)) \, dx, $$ where $B$ is positive, monotone and convex, and $H$ is positive homogeneous of degree 1. The critical points of this…
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…
Homogenization of integral functionals is studied under the constraint that admissible maps have to take their values into a given smooth manifold. The notion of tangential homogenization is defined by analogy with the tangential…
We consider the family of non-local and non-convex functionals proposed and investigated by J. Bourgain, H. Brezis and H.-M. Nguyen in a series of papers of the last decade. It was known that this family of functionals Gamma-converges to a…
We prove the weak Harnack inequality for the functions $u$ which belong to the corresponding De Giorgi classes $DG^{-}(\Omega)$ under the additional assumption that $u\in L^{s}_{loc}(\Omega)$ with some $s> 0$. In particular, our result…
We prove a homogenization result for integral functionals in domains with oscillating boundaries, showing that the limit is defined on a degenerate Sobolev space. We apply this result to the description of the asymptotic behaviour of thin…
Let $\es$ be the family of analytic and univalent functions $f$ in the unit disk $\D$ with the normalization $f(0)=f'(0)-1=0$, and let $\gamma_n(f)=\gamma_n$ denote the logarithmic coefficients of $f\in {\es}$. In this paper, we study…
In this study we consider the $\Gamma$-limit of a highly oscillatory Riemannian metric length functional as its period tends to 0. The metric coefficient takes values in either $\{1,\infty\}$ or $\{1,\beta \varepsilon^{-p}\}$ where…
Let $\Omega$ be an open subset of a Stein manifold $\Sigma$ and let $M$ be its boundary. It is well known that $M$ inherits a natural contact structure. In this paper we consider a family of variational functionals $F_\varepsilon$ defined…
