In this paper, we study the regularity for viscosity solutions of locally uniformly elliptic equations and obtain a series of interior pointwise $C^{k,\alpha}$ ($k\geq 1$, $0<\alpha<1$) regularity with smallness assumptions on the solution…

We establish small energy H\"{o}lder bounds for minimizers $u_\varepsilon$ of \[E_\varepsilon (u):=\int_\Omega W(\nabla u)+ \frac{1}{\varepsilon^2} \int_\Omega f(u),\] where $W$ is a positive definite quadratic form and the potential $f$…

Let $\ce$ be a Dirichlet form on $L_2(X\,;\mu)$ where $(X,\mu)$ is locally compact $\sigma$-compact measure space. Assume $\ce$ is inner regular, i.e.\ regular in restriction to functions of compact support, and local in the sense that…

We establish local higher integrability and differentiability results for minimizers of variational integrals $$ \mathfrak{F}(v,\Omega) = \int_{\Omega} /! F(Dv(x)) \, dx $$ over $W^{1,p}$--Sobolev mappings $u \colon \Omega \subset {\mathbb…

We investigate surfaces with bounded L^p-norm of the fractional mean curvature, a quantity we shall refer to as fractional Willmore-type functional. In the subcritical case and under convexity assumptions we show how this…

We study the global Lipschitz character of minimisers of the Dirichlet energy of diffeomorphisms between doubly connected domains with smooth boundaries from Riemann surfaces. The key point of the proof is the fact that minimisers are…

We propose some general growth conditions on the function $% f=f\left( x,\xi \right) $, including the so-called natural growth, or polynomial, or $p,q-$growth conditions, or even exponential growth, in order to obtain that any local…

We consider a singularly perturbed Dirichlet spectral problem for an elliptic operator of second order. The coefficients of the operator are assumed to be locally periodic and oscillating in the scale $\varepsilon$. We describe the leading…

We consider integral functionals with slow growth and explicit dependence on u of the lagrangian; this includes many relevant examples, as, for instance, in elastoplastic torsion problems or in image restoration problems. Our aim is to…

We study the critical energy and magnetization profiles for the Ising quantum chain with a marginal extended surface perturbation of the form A/y, y being the distance from the surface (Hilhorst-van Leeuwen model). For weak local couplings,…

We show that the energy density of critical points of a class of conformally invariant variational problems with small energy on the unit 2-disk B_1 lies in the local Hardy space h^1(B_1). As a corollary we obtain a new proof of the energy…

We study the existence and regularity of minimizers of the neo-Hookean energy in the closure of classes of deformations without cavitation. The exclusion of cavitation is imposed in the form of the divergence identities, which is equivalent…

We prove that a deformation of a hypersurface in a $(n+1)$-dimensional real space form ${\mathbb S}^{n+1}_{p,1}$ induce a Hamiltonian variation of the normal congruence in the space ${\mathbb L}({\mathbb S}^{n+1}_{p,1})$ of oriented…

We study energy functionals obtained by adding a possibly discontinuous potential to an interaction term modeled upon a Gagliardo-type fractional seminorm. We prove that minimizers of such non-differentiable functionals are locally bounded,…

A dipolar fixed point introduced by Aharony and Fisher is a physical example of interacting scale-invariant but non-conformal field theories. We find that the perturbative critical exponents computed in $\epsilon$ expansions violate the…

We develop a general approach, using local interpolation inequalities, to non-convex integral functionals depending on the gradient with a singular perturbation by derivatives of order $k\ge 2$. When applied to functionals giving rise to…

We study Lipschitz critical points of the energy $\int_\Omega g(\det D u) \, d x$ in two dimensions, where $g$ is a strictly convex function. We prove that the Jacobian of any Lipschitz critical point is constant, and that the Jacobians of…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ be a Lipschitz domain, and consider a harmonic map $v: \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{S}^2$ with boundary data $v|\partial\Omega = \varphi$ which minimises the Dirichlet energy. For $p\geq 2$, we show that any…
