Recently it has been shown that the unique locally perimeter minimizing partitioning of the plane into three regions, where one region has finite area and the other two have infinite measure, is given by the so-called standard lens…

We study two non-local variational problems that are characterized by the presence of a Riesz-like repulsive term that competes with an attractive term. The first functional is defined on the subsets of $\mathbb{R}^N$ and has the fractional…

Given a bounded $C^2$ domain $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^d$ with $d\geq3$, we prove a sharp inequality which relates the perimeter of ${\partial\Omega}$ to the endpoint Gagliardo seminorm in $W^{r,2}({\partial\Omega})$, corresponding to…

We consider the minimization of an energy functional given by the sum of a crystalline perimeter and a nonlocal interaction of Riesz type, under volume constraint. We show that, in the small mass regime, if the Wulff shape of the…

This note treats several problems for the fractional perimeter or $s$-perimeter on the sphere. The spherical fractional isoperimetric inequality is established. It turns out that the equality cases are exactly the spherical caps.…

We obtain a sharp lower bound on the isoperimetric deficit of a general polygon in terms of the variance of its side lengths, the variance of its radii, and its deviation from being convex. Our technique involves a functional minimization…

We propose here a proof of existence of a minimizer of a segmentation functional based on a priori information on target shapes, and formulated with level sets. The existence of a minimizer is very important, because it guarantees the…

This paper deals with the famous isoperimetric inequality. In a first part, we give some new functional form of the isoperimetric inequality, and in a second part, we give a quantitative form with a remainder term involving Wasserstein…

This paper is devoted to variational problems on the set of probability measures which involve optimal transport between unequal dimensional spaces. In particular, we study the minimization of a functional consisting of the sum of a term…

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…

A counterexample to uniqueness of global minimizers of semilinear optimal control problems is given. The lack of uniqueness occurs for a special choice of the state-target in the cost functional. Our arguments show also that, for some…

We study extremal functions for a family of Poincar\'e-Sobolev-type inequalities. These functions minimize, for subcritical or critical $p\geq 2$, the quotient ${\|\nabla u\|_2}/{\|u\|_p}$ among all $u \in H^1(B)\setminus\{0\}$ with…

Let $ M^n$ be a closed immersed minimal hypersurface in the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{n+1}$. We establish a special isoperimetric inequality of $M^n$. As an application, if the scalar curvature of $ M^n$ is constant, then we get a uniform…

The aim of this paper is to exhibit a necessary and sufficient condition of optimality for functionals depending on fractional integrals and derivatives, on indefinite integrals and on presence of time delay. We exemplify with one example,…

We establish the existence and symmetry of all minimizers of a constrained variational problem involving the fractional gradient. This problem is closely connected to some fractional kinetic equations.

In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing the relative perimeter under a volume constraint in the interior of a convex body, i.e., a compact convex set in Euclidean space with interior points. We shall not impose any regularity…

We introduce a new variational method for the study of stability in the isoperimetric inequality. The method is quite general as it relies on a penalization technique combined with the regularity theory for quasiminimizers of the perimeter.…

The purpose of this article is twofold. First, an issue of regularity of weak solution to the problem $(P)$ (See below) is addressed. Secondly, we investigate the question of $H^s$ versus $C^0$- weighted minimizers of the functional…
