We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a difference of convex (DC, for short) functions, defined on a locally convex space, to be Lipschitz continuous. Our criterion relies on the intersections of the "epsilon-subdifferentials of…

We provide new general methods in the calculus of variations for the anisotropic Plateau problem in arbitrary dimension and codimension. A new direct proof of Almgren's 1968 existence result is presented; namely, we produce from a class of…

We consider some energy integrals under slow growth and we prove that the local minimizers are locally Lipschitz continuous. Many examples are given, either with subquadratic $p,q-$growth and/or anisotropic growth.

We construct weak solutions of the anisotropic inverse mean curvature flow (A-IMCF) under very mild assumptions both on the anisotropy (which is simply a norm in $\mathbb R^N$ with no ellip\-ticity nor smoothness requirements, in order to…

For a given constant $\lambda > 0$ and a bounded Lipschitz domain $D \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ ($n \geq 2$), we establish that almost-minimizers of the functional $$ J(\mathbf{v}; D) = \int_D \sum_{i=1}^{m} \left|\nabla v_i(x) \right|^p+…

We mainly discuss superquadratic minimization problems for splitting-type variational integrals on a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ and prove higher integrability of the gradient up to the boundary by incorporating…

We obtain local Lipschitz regularity for minima of autonomous integrals in the calculus of variations, assuming $q$-growth hypothesis and $W^{1,p}$-quasiconvexity only asymptotically, both in the sub-quadratic and the super-quadratic case.

We consider minimizers $u_\varepsilon$ of the Ginzburg-Landau energy with quadratic divergence penalization on a simply-connected two-dimensional domain $\Omega$. On the boundary, strong tangential anchoring is imposed. We prove that…

In this paper we study an anisotropic variant of the Rudin-Osher-Fatemi functional with $L^1$ fidelity term of the form \[ E(u) = \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \phi(\nabla u) + \lambda \| u -f \|_{L^1(\mathbb{R}^n)}. \] We will characterize the…

We prove local Lipschitz regularity for local minimiser of \[ W^{1,1}(\Omega)\ni v\mapsto \int_\Omega F(Dv)\, dx \] where $\Omega\subseteq {\mathbb R}^N$, $N\ge 2$ and $F:{\mathbb R}^N\to {\mathbb R}$ is a quasiuniformly convex integrand in…

In this paper we consider topological mappings defined by $p$-capacity inequalities in domains of $\mathbb R^n$. In the case $p=n-1$ we prove the Lipschitz continuity of such mappings, that extends the result by F.~W.~Gehring.

We study the minimizers of the sum of the principal Dirichlet eigenvalue of the negative Laplacian and the perimeter with respect to a general norm in the class of Jordan domains in the plane. This is equivalent (modulo scaling) to…

We establish asymptotic bounds on the L^p norms of spectrally localized functions in the case of two-dimensional Dirichlet forms with coefficients of Lipschitz regularity. These bounds are new for the range p>6. A key step in the proof is…
