We consider a minimization problem that combines the Dirichlet energy with the nonlocal perimeter of a level set, namely $$ \int_\Om |\nabla u(x)|^2\,dx+\Per\Big(\{u > 0\},\Om \Big),$$ with $\sigma\in(0,1)$. We obtain regularity results for…

We study the regularity of minimizers of the functional $\mathcal E(u):= [u]_{H^s(\Omega)}^2 +\int_\Omega fu$. This corresponds to understanding solutions for the regional fractional Laplacian in $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^N$. More precisely,…

The weak lower semicontinuity of the functional $$ F(u)=\int_{\Omega}f(x,u,\nabla u)\, dx$$ is a classical topic that was studied thoroughly. It was shown that if the function $f$ is continuous and convex in the last variable, the…

We study the question whether Lipschitz minimizers of $\int F(\nabla u)\,dx$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are $C^1$ when $F$ is strictly convex. Building on work of De Silva-Savin, we confirm the $C^1$ regularity when $D^2F$ is positive and bounded…

We establish maximal local regularity results of weak solutions or local minimizers of \[ \operatorname{div} A(x, Du)=0 \quad\text{and}\quad \min_u \int_\Omega F(x,Du)\,dx, \] providing new ellipticity and continuity assumptions on $A$ or…

We prove a regularity theorem for the free boundary of minimizers of the two-phase Bernoulli problem, completing the analysis started by Alt, Caffarelli and Friedman in the 80s. As a consequence, we also show regularity of minimizers of the…

We prove regularity results for the unique minimizer of the total variation functional, currently used in image processing analysis since the work by L. Rudin, S. Osher and E. Fatemi. In particular we show that if the source term $f$ is…

For higher order integral functionals with $p(x)$ growth with respect to the highest order derivative $D^m u$, we prove that $D^m u$ is H\"older continuous on an open subset $\Omega_0 \subset \Omega$ of full Lebesgue- measure, provided that…

Minimization is a reoccurring theme in many mathematical disciplines ranging from pure to applied ones. Of particular importance is the minimization of integral functionals that is studied within the calculus of variations. Proofs of the…

For $\alpha\in [1,2)$ we consider operators of the form $$L f(x)=\int_{R^d} [f(x+h)-f(x)-1_{(|h|\leq 1)} \nabla f(x)\cdot h] \frac{A(x,h)}{|h|^{d+\alpha}}$$ and for $\alpha\in (0,1)$ we consider the same operator but where the $\nabla f$…

We prove a sharp higher differentiability result for local minimizers of functionals of the form $$\mathcal{F}\left(w,\Omega\right)=\int_{\Omega}\left[ F\left(x,Dw(x)\right)-f(x)\cdot w(x)\right]dx$$ with non-autonomous integrand $F(x,\xi)$…

In this paper we consider minimizers of the Mumford-Shah functional with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We study blow-ups at the boundary and prove an epsilon-regularity theorem.

In this paper we generalize the famous result of [FKS] to the double phase model. In particular, we work with minimal assumptions on the modulating coefficient by introducing a Muckenhoupt-type condition on generalized Orlicz spaces. We…

The optimal local Lipschitz regularity for scalar almost-minimizers of Alt-Caffarelli-type functionals $$ \mathcal{F}({v}; \Omega) = \int_\Omega \varphi(x,\left|\nabla v(x) \right|)+ \lambda \chi_{\{{v} >0\}} (x) \, \mathrm{d}x\,, $$ with…

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.
