We give an alternative proof of the regularity, up to the loose end, of minimizers, resp. critical points of the Mumford-Shah functional when they are sufficiently close to the cracktip, resp. they consist of a single arc terminating at an…

The aim of this article is to give a rather extensive, and yet nontechnical, account of the birth of the regularity theory for generalized minimal surfaces, of its various ramifications along the decades, of the most recent developments,…

In this paper we consider minimizers of the Mumford-Shah functional with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We study blow-ups at the boundary and prove an epsilon-regularity theorem.

In this paper it is shown that any regular critical point of the Mumford-Shah functional, with positive definite second variation, is an isolated local minimizer with respect to competitors which are sufficiently close in the L^1-topology.

This paper is the first part of an ongoing project aimed at providing a local minimality criterion, based on a second variation approach, for the triple point configurations of the Mumford-Shah functional.

In this paper we exhibit a family of stationary solutions of the Mumford-Shah functional in $\mathbb{R}^3$, arbitrary close to a crack-front. Unlike other examples, known in the literature, those are topologically non-minimizing in the…

We establish a new monotonicity formula for minimizers of the Mumford-Shah functional in planar domains. Our formula follows the spirit of Bucur-Luckhaus, but works with the David-L\'eger entropy instead of the energy. Interestingly, this…

In this paper we introduce a notion of unilateral slope for the Mumford-Shah functional, and provide an explicit formula in the case of smooth cracks. We show that the slope is not lower semicontinuous and study the corresponding relaxed…

The primary objective of this paper is to establish the Ahlfors regularity of minimizers of set functions that satisfy a suitable maxitive condition on disjoint unions of sets. Our analysis focuses on minimizers within continua of the plane…

We prove higher integrability for the gradient of local minimizers of the Mumford-Shah energy functional, providing a positive answer to a conjecture of De Giorgi.

We prove that, if u is a function satisfying all Euler conditions for the Mumford-Shah functional and the discontinuity set of u is given by three line segments meeting at the origin with equal angles, then there exists a neighbourhood U of…

We show that if (u;K) is a minimizer of the Mumford-Shah functional in an open set of R^3, and if x, K and r > 0 are such that K is close enough to a minimal cone of type P (a plane), Y (three half planes meeting with 120 degrees angles) or…

In the first part of this doctoral thesis we develop a regularity theory for a polyconvex functional in compressible elasticity. In the second part, we will concentrate on uniqueness questions in various situations of finite elasticity.…

Recently, the distribution-dependent Mumford-Shah model for hyperspectral image segmentation was introduced. It approximates an image based on first and second order statistics using a data term, that is built of a Mahalanobis distance plus…

We prove that if $(u,\Gamma)$ is a minimizer of the functional $$ J(u,\Gamma)=\int_{B_1(0)\setminus \Gamma}|\nabla u|^2dx +\H^1(\Gamma) $$ and $\Gamma$ connects $\partial B_1(0)$ to a point in the interior, then $\Gamma$ satisfies a…

In this note we use recent results concerning the sum theorem for maximal monotone multifunctions in general Banach spaces to find new characterizations and properties of regular maximal monotone multifunctions and then use these to…

Motivated by the construction of time-periodic solutions for the three-dimensional Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation in the case of soft and small ferromagnetic particles, we investigate the regularity properties of minimizers of the…

In this paper, we establish an $\varepsilon$-regularity theorem for minimizers of an Alt-Phillips type functional subject to constraint maps. We prove that under sufficiently small energy, the minimizers exhibit regularity, and hence…

We consider in 2D the following special case of the Mumford-Shah functional $$ J(u, \Gamma)=\int_{B_1\backslash\Gamma} |\nabla u|^2 dx + \lambda^2 \frac{\pi}{2} \mathcal{H}^1(\Gamma). $$ It is known that if the minimizer has a crack-tip in…

We study global Mumford-Shah minimizers in $\R^N$, introduced by Bonnet as blow-up limits of Mumford-Shah minimizers. We prove a new monotonicity formula for the energy of $u$ when the singular set $K$ is contained in a smooth enough cone.…
