Consider a semi-algebraic function $f\colon\mathbb{R}^n \to {\mathbb{R}},$ which is continuous around a point $\bar{x} \in \mathbb{R}^n.$ Using the so--called {\em tangency variety} of $f$ at $\bar{x},$ we first provide necessary and…

The present work constitutes a first step towards establishing a systematic framework for treating variational problems that depend on a given input function through a mixture of its derivatives of different orders in different directions.…

We establish partial regularity results for minimizers of a class of functionals depending on differential expressions based on elliptic operators. Specifically, we focus on functionals of Orlicz growth with a natural strong quasiconvexity…

We study the question whether Lipschitz minimizers of $\int F(\nabla u)\,dx$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are $C^1$ when $F$ is strictly convex. Building on work of De Silva-Savin, we confirm the $C^1$ regularity when $D^2F$ is positive and bounded…

Let $\mu>0$ be a fixed constant, and we prove that minimizers to the following energy functional \begin{align*} E_f(u,\Omega):=\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2+\mu P(\Omega) \end{align*}exist among pairs $(\Omega,u)$ such that $\Omega$ is an…

Verifying lower-semicontinuity of integral functionals in the weak topology of Sobolev spaces is a central theme in the calculus of variations. For integral functionals with $p$-growth, quasiconvexity is a necessary condition for weak…
