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 these notes is to give a complete self-contained account of the current state of the art in the regularity for planar minimizers and critical points of the Mumford-Shah functional.
Under some conditions we give a blow-up analysis for solutions of an equation with Dirichlet boundary condition.
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 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…

In this paper, we investigate the borderline regularity of local minimizers of energy functionals under minimal assumptions on the potential term $\sigma$. When $\sigma$ is merely bounded and measurable, we show that sign-changing…

We consider the H\"older continuity for the Dirichlet problem at the boundary. Almgren introduced the multivalued; Q-valued functions for studying regularity of minimal surfaces in higher codimension. The H\"older continuity in the interior…
We establish an epsilon-regularity theorem at points in the free boundary of almost-minimizers of the energy $\mathrm{Per}_{w}(E)=\int_{\partial^*E}w\,\mathrm{d} {\mathscr{H}}^{n-1}$, where $w$ is a weight asymptotic to…
In this paper we prove that any solution of the $m$-polyharmonic Poisson equation in a Reifenberg-flat domain with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition, is $\mathscr{C}^{m-1,\alpha}$ regular up to the boundary. To achieve this result we…
In this paper, we develop a series of boundary pointwise regularity for Dirichlet problems and oblique derivative problems. As applications, we give direct and simple proofs of the higher regularity of the free boundaries in obstacle-type…
In this note we study the boundary regularity of minimizers of a family of weak anchoring energies that model the states of liquid crystals. We establish optimal boundary regularity in all dimensions $n\geq 3 .$ In dimension $n=3,$ this…
We review some classical results and more recent insights about the regularity theory for local minimizers of the Mumford and Shah energy and their connections with the Mumford and Shah conjecture. We discuss in details the links among the…
