We prove that if a curve parametrized by arc length is a stationary point of the Moebius energy introduced by Jun O'Hara, then it is smooth whenever the Moebius energy is finite. Our methods, interestingly, only rely on purely analytical…

The M\"{o}bius energy, defined by O'Hara, is one of the knot energies, and named after the M\"{o}bius invariant property which was shown by Freedman-He-Wang. The energy can be decomposed into three parts, each of which is M\"{o}bius…

In this manuscript, we delve into the study of maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega;\overline M)$ that minimize the Alt-Caffarelli energy functional $$ \int_\Omega (|Du|^2 + q^2 \chi_{u^{-1}(M)})\,dx, $$ under the condition that the image $u(\Omega)$…

It is known that the energy of a weak solution to the Euler equation is conserved if it is slightly more regular than the Besov space $B^{1/3}_{3,\infty}$. When the singular set of the solution is (or belongs to) a smooth manifold, we…
