We are interested in the Euler-Maruyama dicretization of the formal SDE, $dX_t=b(t,X_t)dt+dZ_t$, where $Z$ is a symmetric isotropic d dimensional stable process of index $\alpha\in (1,2)$, and $b$ is distributional. It belongs to a mix…

We establish small energy H\"{o}lder bounds for minimizers $u_\varepsilon$ of \[E_\varepsilon (u):=\int_\Omega W(\nabla u)+ \frac{1}{\varepsilon^2} \int_\Omega f(u),\] where $W$ is a positive definite quadratic form and the potential $f$…

In this paper we prove the Lipschitz regularity for local minimizers of convex variational integrals of the form \[ \mathfrak{F}( v, \Omega )= \int_{\Omega} \! F(x, Dv(x)) \, dx, \] where, for ${n > 2}$ and $N\ge 1$, $\Omega$ is a bounded…

We work in a class of Sobolev $W^{1,p}$ maps, with $p > d-1$, from a bounded open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$ to $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ that do not exhibit cavitation and whose trace on $\partial \Omega$ is also $W^{1,p}$. Under the…
