We show the uniqueness of strictly convex closed smooth self-similar solutions to the $\alpha$-Gauss curvature flow with $(1/n) < \alpha < 1+(1/n)$. We introduce a Pogorelov type computation, and then we apply the strong maximum principle.…

We describe a convex relaxation for the Gilbert-Steiner problem both in $R^d$ and on manifolds, extending the framework proposed in [9], and we discuss its sharpness by means of calibration type arguments. The minimization of the resulting…
