For a bounded domain $U\subset\rn$, consider the $L^\fz$-functional involving a nonnegative Hamilton function $H:\overline U\times\rn\to [0,\fz)$. In this paper, we will establish the uniqueness of absolute minimizers $u\in…

Rademacher's Theorem can be interpreted as an almost-everywhere \emph{little-$o$ improvement principle}: if a function admits a uniform pointwise first-order Lipschitz control at every point, then this control improves to a vanishing one at…

We study almost minimizers for the thin obstacle problem with variable H\"older continuous coefficients and zero thin obstacle and establish their $C^{1,\beta}$ regularity on the either side of the thin space. Under an additional assumption…

We prove minimax theorems for lower semicontinuous functions defined on a Hilbert space. The main tool is the theory of $\Phi$-convex functions and sufficient and necessary conditions for the minimax equality to hold for $\Phi$-convex…

The concept of Rademacher type $p$ ($1\leq p\leq2$) plays an important role in the local theory of Banach spaces. In \cite{mas88} Mascioni considers a weakening of this concept and shows that for a Banach space $X$ weak Rademacher type $p$…

For any $n\ge 2$, $\Omega\subset\rn$, and any given convex and coercive Hamiltonian function $H\in C^{0}(\rn)$, we find an optimal sufficient condition on $H$, that is, for any $c\in\mathbb R$, the level set $H^{-1}(c)$ does not contains…

Suppose that $n\ge3$ and $H(p)\in C^0(\mathbb{R}^n)$ is a locally strongly convex and concave Hamiltonian. We obtain the everywhere differentiability of all absolute minimizers for $H$ in any domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$.

We introduce and study weak o-minimality in the context of complete types in an arbitrary first-order theory. A type $p\in S(A)$ is weakly o-minimal if for some relatively $A$-definable linear order, $<$, on $p(\mathfrak{C})$ every…

We obtain existence of minimizers for the $p$-capacity functional defined with respect to a centrally symmetric anisotropy for $1 < p<\infty$, including the case of a crystalline norm in $\mathbb R^N$. The result is obtained by a…

Given a $C^2$ family of vector fields $X_1,...,X_m$ which induces a continuous Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance, we show that any absolute minimizer of a supremal functional defined by a $C^2$ quasiconvex Hamiltonian $f(x, z, p)$, allowing…

This paper concerns almost minimizers of the functional $$ J(v,\Omega) = \int_\Omega \left( |D v^+|^p + |D v^-|^q \right) dx, $$ where $1<p \neq q< \infty$ and $\Omega$ is a bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 1$. We prove the…

This article is devoted to the study of lower semicontinuous solutions of Hamilton-Jacobi equations with convex Hamiltonians in a gradient variable. Such Hamiltonians appear in the optimal control theory. We present a necessary and…

Let $H(q,p)$ be a Hamiltonian on $T^*T^n$. We show that the sequence $H_{k}(q,p)=H(kq,p)$ converges for the $\gamma$ topology defined by the author, to $\bar{H}(p)$. This is extended to the case where only some of the variables are…

We show that, under certain geometric conditions, there are no nonconstant quasiminimizers with finite $p$th power energy in a (not necessarily complete) metric measure space equipped with a globally doubling measure supporting a global…

A result of Chernoff gives sufficient condition for an $L^2$-function on $\R^n$ to be quasi-analytic. This is a generalization of the classical Denjoy-Carleman theorem on $\R$ and of the subsequent work on $\R^n$ by Bochner and Taylor. In…

We give a weak factorization proof of the Hardy space $H^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{n})$ in the multilinear setting, for $\frac{n}{n+1} < p <1$. As a consequence, we obtain a characterization of the boundedness of the commutator $[b,T]$ from…

We establish a weak Harnack inequality for nonlocal $W^{s,1}$-subminimizers in a complete, connected, doubling metric measure space where $0<s<1$. As a corollary, we prove that $W^{s,1}$-subminimizers are semicontinuous, up to a suitable…

We prove a Hopf bifurcation theorem in Hilbert spaces for abstract semilinear equations, which improves a classical result by Crandall and Rabinowitz in the case where basic spaces are Hilbert spaces. Actually, our theorem does not need any…

We consider the minimization of a p-Ginzburg-Landau energy functional over the class of radially symmetric functions of degree one. We prove the existence of a unique minimizer in this class, and show that its modulus is monotone increasing…

We prove existence and partial regularity of integral rectifiable $m$-dimensional varifolds minimizing functionals of the type $\int |H|^p$ and $\int |A|^p$ in a given Riemannian $n$-dimensional manifold $(N,g)$, $2\leq m<n$ and $p>m$,…
