In this article our main concern is to prove the quantitative unique estimates for the $p$-Laplace equation, $1<p<\infty$, with a locally Lipschitz drift in the plane. To be more precise, let $u\in W^{1,p}_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ be a…
We introduce a method for approximating viscosity solutions of stationary degenerate elliptic Hamilton--Jacobi--Bellman equations on bounded domains arising in stochastic exit-time control. Viscosity enforcement is formulated as a min--max…
In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the solutions of a class of nonlinear elliptic problems posed in a 2-dimensional domain that degenerates into a line segment (a thin domain) when a positive parameter $\varepsilon$ goes to…
Let $\Psi_m^D$ be orthogonal Daubechies wavelets that have m zero moments and let $$ W_{2,p}^k=\{f \in L_2(R):\|(I \omega)^k\hat f(\omega)\|_p\leq 1\}, \, k \in N. $$ We prove that $$ \lim_{m \to \infty}\,…
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…
For $0 < \alpha \leq 1$, let $E$ be a compact subset of the $d$-dimensional moment curve in $\mathbb{R}^d$ such that $N(E,\varepsilon) \lesssim \varepsilon^{-\alpha}$ for $0 <\varepsilon <1$ where $N(E,\varepsilon)$ is the smallest number…

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 perform the first tight convergence analysis of the gradient method with varying step sizes when applied to smooth hypoconvex (weakly convex) functions. Hypoconvex functions are smooth nonconvex functions whose curvature is bounded and…
We study a class of Landau-de Gennes energy functionals in the asymptotic regime of small elastic constant $L>0$. We revisit and sharpen the results in [18] on the convergence to the limit Oseen-Frank functional. We examine how the…
We investigate a class of composite nonconvex functions, where the outer function is the sum of univariate extended-real-valued convex functions and the inner function is the limit of difference-of-convex functions. A notable feature of…
This work is concerned with the large time behavior of solutions to the barotropic compressible Navier-Stokes equations in $\mathbb{R}^{d}(d\geq2)$. Precisely, it is shown that if the initial density and velocity additionally belong to some…
Consider composite nonconvex optimization problems where the objective function consists of a smooth nonconvex term (with Lipschitz-continuous gradient) and a convex (possibly nonsmooth) term. Existing parameter-free methods for such…
For finite-dimensional problems, stochastic approximation methods have long been used to solve stochastic optimization problems. Their application to infinite-dimensional problems is less understood, particularly for nonconvex objectives.…
We present two novel methods for approximating minimizers of the abstract Rayleigh quotient $\Phi(u)/ \|u\|^p$. Here $\Phi$ is a strictly convex functional on a Banach space with norm $\|\cdot\|$, and $\Phi$ is assumed to be positively…
This paper deals with the approximation of discrete real-valued functions by first-degree splines (broken lines) with free knots for arbitrary $L_p$-norms ($1 \leq p \leq \infty)$. We prove the existence of best approximations und derive…
We consider the Cauchy problem for the gradient flow \begin{equation} \label{eq:81} \tag{$\star$} u'(t)=-\nabla\phi(u(t)),\quad t\ge 0;\quad u(0)=u_0, \end{equation} generated by a continuously differentiable function $\phi:\mathbb H \to…

We study pathwise approximation of strong solutions of scalar stochastic differential equations (SDEs) at a single time in the presence of discontinuities of the drift coefficient. Recently, it has been shown by M\"uller-Gronbach and…
