It is known that the $L^{2}$-norms of a harmonic function over spheres satisfies some convexity inequality strongly linked to the Almgren's frequency function. We examine the $L^{2}$-norms of harmonic functions over a wide class of evolving…

We study curvature functionals for immersed 2-spheres in non-compact, three-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,h)$ without boundary. First, under the assumption that $(M,h)$ is the euclidean 3-space endowed with a semi-perturbed metric…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ be a bounded convex domain in the plane and consider \begin{align*} -\Delta u &=1 \qquad \mbox{in}~\Omega \\ u &= 0 \qquad \mbox{on}~\partial \Omega. \end{align*} If $u$ assumes its maximum in $x_0 \in…

Convexity plays a prominent role in a number of problems, but practical considerations frequently give rise to non-convex functions. We suggest a method for determining convex regions, and also for assessing the lack of convexity in the…

We consider autonomous integral functionals of the form $\mathcal F[u]:=\int_\Omega f(D u)\,dx$ with $u:\Omega\to\mathbb R^N$ $N\geq1$, where the convex integrand $f$ satisfies controlled $(p,q)$-growth conditions. We establish higher…

For any $M, n \geq 2$ and any open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ we find a smooth, strongly polyconvex function $F\colon \mathbb{R}^{M\times n}\to \mathbb{R}$ and a Lipschitz map $u\colon \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^M$ that is a weak…

Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact K\"{a}hler manifold of dimension $n$, and fix $1\leq m\leq n.$ We prove that the complex Hessian equation $(\omega+dd^c\varphi)^m\wedge \omega^{n-m}=f\omega^n$, with $0<f\in \mathcal{C}^{\infty}(X)$ has a…

We provide an example of a normalized $L^{2}(\mathbb R)$ function $u$ such that its Wigner distribution $\mathcal W(u,u)$ has an integral $>1$ on the square $[0,a]\times[0,a]$ for a suitable choice of $a$. This provides a negative answer to…

We find necessary and sufficient conditions on weights $u_1, u_2, v_1, v_2$, i.e. measurable, positive, and finite, a.e. on $(a,b)$, for which there exists a positive constant $C$ such that for given $0 < p_1,q_1,p_2,q_2 <\infty$ the…

Given noisy data, function estimation is considered when the unknown function is known a priori to consist of a small number of regions where the function is either convex or concave. When the number of regions is unknown, the model…
