We obtain Lipschitz regularity results for a fairly general class of nonlinear first-order PDEs. These equations arise from the inner variation of certain energy integrals. Even in the simplest model case of the Dirichlet energy the…

We establish $\mathrm{C}^{\infty}$-partial regularity results for relaxed minimizers of strongly quasiconvex functionals \begin{align*} \mathscr{F}[u;\Omega]:=\int_{\Omega}F(\nabla u)\,\mathrm{d} x,\qquad u\colon\Omega\to\mathbb{R}^{N},…
We present an extension of the classical De Giorgi class, and then we show that functions in this new class are locally bounded and locally H\"older continuous. Some applications are given. As a first application, we give a regularity…
Local minimizers of nonhomogeneous quasiconvex variational integrals with standard $p$-growth of the type $$ w \mapsto \int \left[F(Dw)-f\cdot w\right]dx $$ feature almost everywhere $\mbox{BMO}$-regular gradient provided that $f$ belongs…
