We study boundary value problems for bounded uniform domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, with non-Lipschitz (and possibly fractal) boundaries. We prove Poincar\'e inequalities with trace terms and uniform constants for uniform…

For $p\in (1,+\infty)$ and $b \in (0, +\infty]$ the $p$-torsion function with Robin boundary conditions associated to an arbitrary open set $\Om \subset \R^m$ satisfies formally the equation $-\Delta_p =1$ in $\Om$ and $|\nabla u|^{p-2}…

We consider a minimization problem that combines the Dirichlet energy with the nonlocal perimeter of a level set, namely $$ \int_\Om |\nabla u(x)|^2\,dx+\Per\Big(\{u > 0\},\Om \Big),$$ with $\sigma\in(0,1)$. We obtain regularity results for…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ be a bounded, convex domain and let $u$ be the solution of $-\Delta u = 1$ vanishing on the boundary $\partial \Omega$. The estimate $$ \| \nabla u\|_{L^{\infty}(\Omega)} \leq c |\Omega|^{1/2}$$ is…

We characterize the complexity of minimizing $\max_{i\in[N]} f_i(x)$ for convex, Lipschitz functions $f_1,\ldots, f_N$. For non-smooth functions, existing methods require $O(N\epsilon^{-2})$ queries to a first-order oracle to compute an…
