We show that for an $L^2$ drift $b$ in two dimensions, if the Hardy norm of $\text{div }b$ is small, then the weak solutions to $\Delta u+b\cdot\nabla u=0$ have the same optimal H\"older regularity as in the case of divergence-free drift,…
Here is one of the results of this paper (with the convention ${{1}\over {0}}=+\infty$): Let $X$ be a real Hilbert space and let $J:X\to {\bf R}$ be a $C^1$ functional, with compact derivative, such that $$\alpha^*:=\max\left…
The existence of positive solutions is considered for the Dirichlet problem \[ \left\{ \begin{array} [c]{rcll}% -\Delta_{p}u & = & \lambda\omega_{1}(x)\left\vert u\right\vert ^{q-2}% u+\beta\omega_{2}(x)\left\vert u\right\vert…
We prove that, given~$p>\max\left\{\frac{2n}{n+2},1\right\}$, the nonnegative almost minimizers of the nonlinear free boundary functional $$ J_p(u,\Omega):=\int_{\Omega}\Big( |\nabla u(x)|^p+\chi_{\{u>0\}}(x)\Big)\,dx$$ are Lipschitz…
Let $(g^{\alpha\beta}(x))$ and $(h_{ij}(u))$ be uniformly elliptic symmetric matrices, and assume that $h_{ij}(u)$ and $p(x) \, (\, \geq 2)$ are sufficiently smooth. We prove partial regularity of minimizers for the functional [ {\mathcal…

In this paper we present new embedding results for Musielak-Orlicz Sobolev spaces of double phase type. Based on the continuous embedding of $W^{1,\mathcal{H}}(\Omega)$ into $L^{\mathcal{H}_*}(\Omega)$, where $\mathcal{H}_*$ is the Sobolev…
We establish that every $K$-quasiconformal mapping $w$ of the unit ball $\IB$ onto a $C^2$-Jordan domain $\Omega$ is H\"older continuous with constant $\alpha= 2-\frac{n}{p}$, provided that its weak Laplacean $\Delta w$ is in $ L^p(\IB)$…
In this work, we obtain an existence of nontrivial solutions to a minimization problem involving a fractional Hardy-Sobolev type inequality in the case of inner singularity. Precisely, for $\lambda>0$ we analyze the attainability of the…
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 prove the local H\"{o}lder continuity of strong local minimizers of the stored energy functional \[E(u)=\int_{\om}\lambda |\nabla u|^{2}+h(\det \nabla u) \,dx\] subject to a condition of `positive twist'. The latter turns out to be…
In this work, we study the minimization of nonlinear functionals in dimension $d\geq 1$ that depend on a degenerate radial weight $w$. Our goal is to prove the existence of minimizers in a suitable functional class here introduced and to…

We show that the smallest $\alpha$ so that $\alpha D + (1-\alpha)A \succcurlyeq 0$ is at least $1/\vartheta(\overline{G})$, significantly improving upon a result due to Nikiforov and Rojo (2017). In fact, we display an even stronger…
