We present two generalizations of the classical Stampacchia Lemma which contain a non-decreasing non-negative function $g$, and give applications. As a first application, we deal with variational integrals of the form $$ {\cal J} (u;\Omega)…

We prove that the smallest minimizer s(f) of a real convex function f is less than or equal to a real point x if and only if the right derivative of f at x is non-negative. Similarly, the largest minimizer t(f) is greater or equal to x if…
In this paper, we present some upper bounds for unitarily invariant norms inequalities. Among other inequalities, we show some upper bounds for the Hilbert-Schmidt norm. In particular, we prove \begin{align*} \|f(A)Xg(B)\pm…

We prove partial regularity of stationary solutions and minimizers $u$ from a set $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n$ to a Riemannian manifold $N$, for the functional $\int_\Omega F(x,u,|\nabla u|^2) dx$. The integrand $F$ is convex and satisfies…
We consider a non-autonomous evolutionary problem \[ u' (t)+\mathcal A (t)u(t)=f(t), \quad u(0)=u_0, \] where $V, H$ are Hilbert spaces such that $V$ is continuously and densely embedded in $H$ and the operator $\mathcal A (t)\colon V\to…

The consequences of the gauge-coupling dependent normalization-factor of $1/g^{\alpha}$ in the transfer-matrix of 2d U(1) lattice gauge theory are explored. It is seen by the $\alpha=1$ choice that the lowest energy develops a minimum at…
We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of the functionals $F_n(u):= || f(\cdot,u(\cdot),Du(\cdot))||_{p_n(\cdot)}$ and $\mathcal{F}_n(u):= \int_{\Omega} \frac{1}{p_n(x)} f^{p_n(x)}(x,u(x),Du(x))dx$ defined on $X\in \{L^1(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^d),…

We prove partial regularity for minimizers of quasiconvex functionals of the type $\int_\Omega f(x,Du) dx$ with $p(x)$ growth with respect to the second variable. The proof is direct and uses a method of $A$-harmonic approximation.
Let $(\mathbb{X} , d, \mu )$ be a proper metric measure space and let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{X}$ be a bounded domain. For each $x\in \Omega$, we choose a radius $0< \varrho (x) \leq \mathrm{dist}(x, \partial \Omega ) $ and let $B_x$ be the…
