Let $\mu$ be the Haar measure of a unimodular locally compact group $G$ and $m (G)$ as the infimum of the volumes of all open subgroups of $G$. The main result of this paper is that \begin{align*} \int_{G}^{} f \circ \left( \phi_1 * \phi_2…

We study minimizers of non-autonomous energies with minimal growth and coercivity assumptions on the energy. We show that the minimizer is nevertheless the solution of the relevant Euler--Lagrange equation or inequality. The main tool is an…

We investigate the problem of dimension reduction for plates in nonlinear magnetoelasticity. The model features a mixed Eulerian-Lagrangian formulation, as magnetizations are defined on the deformed set in the actual space. We consider…

Regularity results for minimal configurations of variational problems involving both bulk and surface energies and subject to a volume constraint are established. The bulk energies are convex functions with p-power growth, but are otherwise…

We study the renormalized volume of asymptotically hyperbolic Einstein (AHE in short) manifolds $(M,g)$ when the conformal boundary $\pl M$ has dimension $n$ even. Its definition depends on the choice of metric $h_0$ on $\partial M$ in the…

We consider integral functionals with fast growth and the lagrangian explicitly depending on $u$. We prove that the local minimizers are locally Lipschitz continuous.

When expressed in Lagrangian variables, the equations of motion for compressible (barotropic) fluids have the structure of a classical Hamiltonian system in which the potential energy is given by the internal energy of the fluid. The…

Let $F_n :(\Sigma, h_n) \to \mathbb C^2$ be a sequence of conformally immersed Lagrangian self-shrinkers with a uniform area upper bound to the mean curvature flow, and suppose that the sequence of metrics $\{h_n\}$ converges smoothly to a…

Let $(\bar{M},<,>,e^\psi)$ be a Riemannian manifold with a density, and let $M$ be a closed $n$-dimensional submanifold of $\bar{M}$ with the induced metric and density. We give an upper bound on the first eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ of the…

We prove that every non-degenerate minimal submanifold of codimension two can be obtained as the energy concentration set of a family of critical maps for the (rescaled) Ginzburg-Landau functional. The proof is purely variational, and…

We prove that if $(u,\Gamma)$ is a minimizer of the functional $$ J(u,\Gamma)=\int_{B_1(0)\setminus \Gamma}|\nabla u|^2dx +\H^1(\Gamma) $$ and $\Gamma$ connects $\partial B_1(0)$ to a point in the interior, then $\Gamma$ satisfies a…

We prove existence and regularity of minimisers for the Canham-Helfrich energy in the class of weak (possibly branched and bubbled) immersions of the $2$-sphere. This solves (the spherical case) of the minimisation problem proposed by…

In this paper we study a nonconvex-strongly-concave constrained minimax problem. Specifically, we propose a first-order augmented Lagrangian method for solving it, whose subproblems are nonconvex-strongly-concave unconstrained minimax…

In this paper, I mainly prove the following results. For every energy value below the minimum of the first, second and third critical value, each bounded component of the regularized energy hypersurface of the Lagrange problem under some…
