In this paper, we investigate the Dirichlet problem of Laplacian on complete Riemannian manifolds. By constructing new trial functions, we obtain a sharp upper bound of the gap of the consecutive eigenvalues in the sense of the order, which…

In this paper, we consider a linear hybrid system which is composed of $N+1$ non-homogeneous thin rods connected by $N$ interior-point masses with a Dirichlet boundary condition on the left end, and Dirichlet control on the right end. Using…

In this note, we study non-uniqueness for minimizing harmonic maps from $B^3$ to $\mathbb{S}^2$. We show that every boundary map can be modified to a boundary map that admits multiple minimizers of the Dirichlet energy by a small…

We analyze the spectral properties of a particular class of unbounded open sets. These are made of a central bounded ``core'', with finitely many unbounded tubes attached to it. We adopt an elementary and purely variational point of view,…

We revisit the well-established regularity estimates on harmonic maps on surfaces to question their independence with respect to the dimension of the target manifold. We are mainly interested in harmonic maps into target ellipsoids, that we…

In this note we study the boundary regularity of minimizers of a family of weak anchoring energies that model the states of liquid crystals. We establish optimal boundary regularity in all dimensions $n\geq 3 .$ In dimension $n=3,$ this…

This paper models the theory of abstract harmonic spaces in the syntax of the continuous first-order logic of Banach lattices. It addresses a topological question asking when a one-to-one harmonic map onto smooth manifolds $M^n$ is a…

We minimise the Canham-Helfrich energy in the class of closed immersions with prescribed genus, surface area and enclosed volume. Compactness is achieved in the class of oriented varifolds. The main result is a lower-semicontinuity estimate…

This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of a class of nonlinear variational problems with Robin-type boundary conditions on a bounded Lipschitz domain. The energy functional contains a bulk term (the $p$-norm of the gradient), a…

We are concerned with the Dirichlet energy of mappings defined on domains in the complex plane. The motivation behind our questions, however, comes from more general energy integrals of mathematical models of Hyperelasticity. The Dirichlet…
