We pursue the study of a model convex functional with orthotropic structure and nonstandard growth conditions, this time focusing on the sub-quadratic case. We prove that bounded local minimizers are locally Lipschitz. No restriction on the…

In the present paper, a class of fully non-linear elliptic equations are considered, which are degenerate as the gradient becomes small. H\"older estimates obtained by the first author (2011) are combined with new Lipschitz estimates…

We prove $C^{2,\alpha}$ regularity of sufficiently flat free boundaries, for the thin one-phase problem in which the free boundary occurs on a lower dimensional subspace. This problem appears also as a model of a one-phase free boundary…

This paper investigates the local regularity of solutions to stationary Fokker-Planck equations on an open set $U \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ with $d \geq 2$. A central objective is to relax the classical assumptions on the coefficients by…

We develop a discrete counterpart of the De Giorgi-Nash-Moser theory, which provides uniform H\"older-norm bounds on continuous piecewise affine finite element approximations of second-order linear elliptic problems of the form $-\nabla…

For a strictly convex set $K\subset \mathbb{R}^2$ of class $C^2$ we consider its associated sub-Finsler $K$-perimeter $|\partial E|_K$ in $\mathbb{H}^1$ and the prescribed mean curvature functional $|\partial E|_K-\int_E f$ associated to a…

We first take into account variational problems with periodic boundary conditions, and briefly recall some sufficient conditions for a periodic solution of the Euler-Lagrange equation to be either a directional, a weak, or a strong local…

This paper is dedicated to the spectral optimization problem $$ \mathrm{min}\left\{\lambda_1^s(\Omega)+\cdots+\lambda_m^s(\Omega) + \Lambda \mathcal{L}_n(\Omega)\colon \Omega\subset D \mbox{ s-quasi-open}\right\} $$ where $\Lambda>0,…

We continue the development, by reduction to a first order system for the conormal gradient, of $L^2$ \textit{a priori} estimates and solvability for boundary value problems of Dirichlet, regularity, Neumann type for divergence form second…

For a reduced hypersurface $V(f) \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n$ of degree $d$, the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the Milnor algebra $M(f)$ is well understood when $V(f)$ is smooth, as well as when $V(f)$ has isolated singularities. We study…

We prove a version of Myers-Steenrod's theorem for Finsler manifolds under minimal regularity hypothesis. In particular we show that an isometry between $C^{k,\alpha}$-smooth (or partially smooth) Finsler metrics, with $k+\alpha>0$, $k\in…

Let $(\mathbb{X} , d, \mu )$ be a proper metric measure space and let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{X}$ be a bounded domain. For each $x\in \Omega$, we choose a radius $0< \varrho (x) \leq \mathrm{dist}(x, \partial \Omega ) $ and let $B_x$ be the…

We investigate the properties of minimizers of one-dimensional variational problems when the Lagrangian has no higher smoothness than continuity. An elementary approximation result is proved, but it is shown that this cannot be in general…

In this paper, we study the prototypical model of liquid-liquid phase separation, the Cahn-Hilliard functional, in a highly irregular setting. Specifically, we analyze potentials with low regularity vanishing on space-dependent wells. Under…

The aim of the present paper is to study existence results of minimizers of the critical fractional Sobolev constant on bounded domains. Under some values of the fractional parameter we show that the best constant is achieved. If moreover…

We study the higher H\"older regularity of local weak solutions to a class of nonlinear nonlocal elliptic equations with kernels that satisfy a mild continuity assumption. An interesting feature of our main result is that the obtained…

In this paper we prove a $\mathcal C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity result for minimizers of the planar Griffith functional arising from a variational model of brittle fracture. We prove that any isolated connected component of the crack, the…

We study the behavior of second-order degenerate elliptic systems in divergence form with random coefficients which are stationary and ergodic. Assuming moment bounds like Chiarini and Deuschel [Arxiv preprint 1410.4483, 2014] on the…

In this article, we consider and analyse a small variant of a functional originally introduced in \cite{BLS,LS} to approximate the (geometric) planar Steiner problem. This functional depends on a small parameter $\varepsilon>0$ and…

We prove global $W^{1,q}(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^m)$-regularity for minimisers of convex functionals of the form $\mathscr{F}(u)=\int_\Omega F(x,Du)\mathrm{d} x$. $W^{1,q}(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^m)$ regularity is also proven for minimisers of the…
