Teichm\"uller's problem from 1944 is this: Given $x\in [0,1)$ find and describe the extremal quasiconformal map $f:\ID\to\ID$, $f|\partial \ID=identity$ and $f(0)=-x\leq 0$. We consider this problem in the setting of minimisers of…

We study local minima of the $p$-conformal energy functionals, \[ \mathsf{E}_{\cal A}^\ast(h):=\int_\ID {\cal A}(\IK(w,h)) \;J(w,h) \; dw,\quad h|_\IS=h_0|_\IS, \] defined for self mappings $h:\ID\to\ID$ with finite distortion of the unit…

In this paper we continue the investigation of the regularity of the so-called weak $\frac{n}{p}$-harmonic maps in the critical case. These are critical points of the following nonlocal energy \[ {\mathcal{L}}_s(u)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}| (…

The exponential Teichm\"uller spaces $E_p$, $0\leq p \leq \infty$, interpolate between the classical Teichm\"uller space ($p=\infty$) and the space of harmonic diffeomorphisms $(p=0)$. In this article we prove the existence of…

We give an alternative proof of the regularity, up to the loose end, of minimizers, resp. critical points of the Mumford-Shah functional when they are sufficiently close to the cracktip, resp. they consist of a single arc terminating at an…

We establish the Lipschitz regularity of the a priori bounded local minimizers of integral functionals with non autonomous energy densities satisfying non standard growth conditions under a sharp bound on the gap between the growth and the…

Inspired by Morrey's Problem (on rank-one convex functionals) and the Burkholder integrals (of his martingale theory) we find that the Burkholder functionals $B_p$, $p \ge 2$, are quasiconcave, when tested on deformations of identity $f\in…

We study the $L^p$-mean distortion functionals, \[{\cal E}_p[f] = \int_\mathbb Y K^p_f(z) \; dz, \] for Sobolev homeomorphisms $f: \overline{\mathbb Y}\xrightarrow{\rm onto} \overline{\mathbb X}$ where $\mathbb X$ and $\mathbb Y$ are…

In this article we extend to generic $p$-energy minimizing maps between Riemannian manifolds a regularity result which is known to hold in the case $p=2$. We first show that the set of singular points of such a map can be quantitatively…

We study sets of $N$ points on the $d-$dimensional torus $\mathbb{T}^d$ minimizing interaction functionals of the type \[ \sum_{i, j =1 \atop i \neq j}^{N}{ f(x_i - x_j)}. \] The main result states that for a class of functions $f$ that…

In this paper we consider minimizers for nonlocal energy functionals generalizing elastic energies that are connected with the theory of peridynamics \cite{Silling2000} or nonlocal diffusion models \cite{Rossi}. We derive nonlocal versions…

In this paper, we establish an $\varepsilon$-regularity theorem for minimizers of an Alt-Phillips type functional subject to constraint maps. We prove that under sufficiently small energy, the minimizers exhibit regularity, and hence…

Here we advance the study of boundary the value problem for extremal functions of mean distortion and the associated Teichm\"uller spaces interpolating between the classical examples of extremal quasiconformal mappings, and the more recent…

We investigate minimizers and critical points for scale-invariant tangent-point energies ${\rm TP}^{p,q}$ of closed curves. We show that a) minimizing sequences in ambient isotopy classes converge to locally critical embeddings in all but…

We obtain existence of minimizers for the $p$-capacity functional defined with respect to a centrally symmetric anisotropy for $1 < p<\infty$, including the case of a crystalline norm in $\mathbb R^N$. The result is obtained by a…

In this paper, we study the differential inclusion associated to the minimal surface system for two-dimensional graphs in $\mathbb{R}^{2 + n}$. We prove regularity of $W^{1,2}$ solutions and a compactness result for approximate solutions of…

We consider nonconstant periodic constrained minimizers of semilinear elliptic equations for integro-differential operators in $\mathbb{R}$. We prove that, after an appropriate translation, each of them is necessarily an even function which…

We study the continuity of weak solutions for quasilinear elliptic systems with source terms of critical growth arising from a transport-energy structure. The latter occurs frequently in connection with the first balance principles of…

The integrableTeichm\"uller space $T_p$ for $p \geq 1$ is defined by the $p$-integrability of Beltrami coefficients. We characterize a quasisymmetric homeomorphism $h$ in $T_p$ by the condition that $\log h'$ belongs to the real $p$-Besov…

We introduce techniques for turning estimates on the infinitesimal behavior of solutions to nonlinear equations (statements concerning tangent cones and blow ups) into more effective control. In the present paper, we focus on proving…
