Splitting-type variational problems \[ \int_\Omega \sum_{i=1}^n f_i(\partial_i w) dx \to \min \] with superlinear growth conditions are studied by assuming \[ h_i(t) \leq f''_i(t) \leq H_i(t) \] with suitable functions $h_i$, $H_i$:…

We focus on some regularity properties of $\omega$-minima of variational integrals with $\varphi$-growth and we provide an upper bound on the Hausdorff dimension of their singular set.

A way to measure the lower growth rate of $\varphi:\Omega\times [0,\infty) \to [0,\infty)$ is to require $t \mapsto \varphi(x,t)t^{-r}$ to be increasing in $(0,\infty)$. If this condition holds with $r=1$, then \[ \inf_{u\in f+W^{1,…
