In this paper we consider Llarull's theorem in the foliation case and get a lower bound of the Lipschitz constant of the map $M\to S^n$ in the foliation case under the spin condition.

In this paper we study the algebraic ranks of foliations on $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial normal projective varieties. We start by establishing a Kobayashi-Ochiai's theorem for Fano foliations in terms of algebraic rank. We then investigate the…

We study existence, regularity, and qualitative properties of solutions to the system \[ -\Delta u = |v|^{q-1} v\quad \text{ in }\Omega,\qquad -\Delta v = |u|^{p-1} u\quad \text{ in }\Omega,\qquad \partial_\nu u=\partial_\nu v=0\quad \text{…

We show that any noncompact oriented surface is homeomorphic to the leaf of a minimal foliation of a closed $3$-manifold. These foliations are (or are covered by) suspensions of continuous minimal actions of surface groups on the circle.…

We prove a general result about the behaviour of minimizing sequences for nonlocal shape functionals satisfying suitable structural assumptions. Typical examples include functions of the eigenvalues of the fractional Laplacian under…

We consider a fractional version of Gauss capillarity energy. A suitable extension problem is introduced to derive a boundary monotonicity formula for local minimizers of this fractional capillarity energy. As a consequence, blow-up limits…

We prove that an Anosov action of $\mathbb{R}^k$ over a compact manifold $M$ transitive on regular sub-cones satisfies the dichotomy: each stable and unstable leaf is dense or the Anosov action is topologically conjugated to a suspension of…

We show explicit formulas for the evaluation of (possibly higher-order) fractional Laplacians of some functions supported on ellipsoids. In particular, we derive the explicit expression of the torsion function and give examples of…

We first study Clarke's tangent cones at infinity to unbounded subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n.$ We prove that these cones are closed convex and show a characterization of their interiors. We then study subgradients at infinity for extended real…

We consider in this paper elliptic equations which are perturbations of Laplace's equation by a compactly supported potential. We show that in dimension greater than three for a wide class of potentials all the solutions are globally…

In this paper we study a general class of nonlinear elliptic problems in divergence form. First, we prove that the solutions to these problems satisfy a convexity property when the given domain is strictly convex. Then, making use of this…

In this paper we discuss the existence, uniqueness and regularity of solutions of the following system of coupled semilinear Poisson equations on a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$: \[ \left\{{llll} \mathcal{A}^s u= v^p &…

We construct minimal laminations by hyperbolic surfaces whose generic leaf is a disk and contain any prescribed family of surfaces and with a precise control of the topologies of the surfaces that appear. The laminations are constructed via…

In this paper we prove symmetry results for minimizers of a non coercive functional defined on the class of Sobolev functions with zero mean value. We prove that the minimizers are foliated Schwarz symmetric, i.e. they are axially symmetric…

We prove that Riemannian foliations on complete contractible manifolds have a closed leaf, and that all leaves are closed if one closed leaf has a finitely generated fundamental group. Under additional topological or geometric assumptions…

Pursuing conjectures of John Roe, we use the stable Higson corona of foliated cones to construct a new $K$-theory model for the leaf space of a foliation. This new $K$-theory model is -- in contrast to Alain Connes' $K$-theory model -- a…

We prove that a closed embedded minimal surface in the round three-sphere which satisfies the symmetries of a Lawson surface and has the same genus is congruent to the Lawson surface.

We prove that a solution of an elliptic operator with periodic coefficients behaves on large scales like an analytic function, in the sense of approximation by polynomials with periodic corrections. Equivalently, the constants in the…

For a proper immersed minimal disk in $\bf{R}^N$ with quadratic area growth, we show that any harmonic function whose negative part grows at a slow sub-linear rate is constant. This leads to a higher codimensional Bernstein theorem for…

We present an overview of some of our recent results on the existence of rays of minimal growth for elliptic cone operators and two new results concerning the necessity of certain conditions for the existence of such rays.
