This paper studies the polynomial optimization problem whose feasible set is a union of several basic closed semialgebraic sets. We propose a unified hierarchy of Moment-SOS relaxations to solve it globally. Under some assumptions, we prove…
We show existence of solutions to the least gradient problem on the plane for boundary data in $BV(\partial\Omega)$. We also provide an example of a function $f \in L^1(\partial\Omega) \backslash (C(\partial\Omega) \cup…
In this paper we prove a classification result for axially symmetric one phase minimizers of the Alt-Phillips free boundary problem in dimensions 3, 4, and 5. To accomplish this, we establish a stability inequality that extends the one for…
The shape of a drop pinned in a local equilibrium on an incline is a long-standing problem. The substrate can be homogeneous or heterogeneous and we herewith consider a drop pinned on an incline at the junction between a hydrophilic…
We consider Newton's problem of minimal resistance, in particular we address the problem arising in the limit if the height goes to infinity. We establish existence of solutions and lack radial symmetry of solutions. Moreover, we show that…
We obtain existence of minimizers for the $p$-capacity functional defined with respect to a centrally symmetric anisotropy for $1 < p<\infty$, including the case of a crystalline norm in $\mathbb R^N$. The result is obtained by a…

The notion of strictly outward minimising hull is investigated for open sets of finite perimeter sitting inside a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. Under natural geometric assumptions on the ambient manifold, the strictly outward…
Detecting hidden convexity is one of the tools to address nonconvex minimization problems. After giving a formal definition of hidden convexity, we introduce the notion of conditional infimum, as it will prove instrumental in detecting…
We study homogeneous solutions to the Alt-Phillips problem when the exponent $\gamma$ is close to 1. In dimension $d\ge3$, we show that the radial cone is minimizing when $\gamma$ is close to 1. In dimension $d \ge 4$, we construct an…
We study a natural biharmonic analogue of the classical Alt-Caffarelli problem, both under Dirichlet and under Navier boundary conditions. We show existence, basic properties and $C^{1,\alpha}$-regularity of minimisers. For the Navier…
This paper focuses on establishing the existence of a class of steady solutions, termed least total curvature solutions, to the incompressible Euler system in a strip. The solutions obtained in this paper complement the least total…

In this note we consider the optimal design problem for estimating the slope of a polynomial regression with no intercept at a given point, say z. In contrast to previous work, which considers symmetric design spaces we investigate the…
