We prove in this article that functions satisfying a dynamic programming principle have a local interior Lipschitz type regularity. This DPP is partly motivated by the connection to the normalized parabolic $p$-Laplace operator.

We provide sufficient conditions for instability of the subgradient method with constant step size around a local minimum of a locally Lipschitz semi-algebraic function. They are satisfied by several spurious local minima arising in robust…

We study the regularity of solutions of elliptic fractional systems of order 2s, $s \in (0, 1)$, where the right hand side f depends on a nonlocal gradient and has the same scaling properties as the nonlocal operator. Under some structural…

We prove that nonnegative almost minimizers of the horizontal Bernoulli-type functional $$ J(u,\Omega):=\int_{\Omega}\Big(|\nabla_{\mathbb{G}} u(x)|^2+\chi_{\{u>0\}}(x)\Big)\,dx$$ are Lipschitz continuous in the intrinsic sense.

We use the theory of rectifiable metric spaces to define a Dirichlet energy of Lipschitz functions defined on the support of integral currents. This energy is obtained by integration of the square of the norm of the tangential derivative,…

Given a family of locally Lipschitz vector fields $X(x)=(X_1(x),\dots,X_m(x))$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, $m\leq n$, we study functionals depending on $X$. We prove an integral representation for local functionals with respect to $X$ and a result…

We consider a class of {energy integrals}, associated to nonlinear and non-uniformly elliptic equations, with integrands $f(x,u,\xi)$ satisfying anisotropic $p_i,q$-growth conditions of the form $$ \sum_{i=1}^n \lambda_i (x)|\xi_i|^{p_i}\le…

We study the question whether Lipschitz minimizers of $\int F(\nabla u)\,dx$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ are $C^1$ when $F$ is strictly convex. Building on work of De Silva-Savin, we confirm the $C^1$ regularity when $D^2F$ is positive and bounded…

We establish an $\varepsilon$-regularity result for the derivative of a map of bounded variation that minimizes a strongly quasiconvex variational integral of linear growth, and, as a consequence, the partial regularity of such BV…

In this paper, we study local regularity properties of minimizers of nonlocal variational functionals with variable exponents and weak solutions to the corresponding Euler--Lagrange equations. We show that weak solutions are locally bounded…
