In this work, we establish some abstract results on the perspective of the fractional Musielak-Sobolev spaces, such as: uniform convexity, Radon-Riesz property with respect to the modular function, $(S_{+})$-property, Brezis-Lieb type Lemma…

We propose an abstract framework for the homogenization of random functionals which may contain non-convex terms, based on a two-scale $\Gamma$-convergence approach and a definition of Young measures on micropatterns which encodes the…

This paper introduces a new extragradient-type algorithm for a class of nonconvex-nonconcave minimax problems. It is well-known that finding a local solution for general minimax problems is computationally intractable. This observation has…

We formulate and solve a class of finite-time transport and mixing problems in the set-oriented framework. The aim is to obtain optimal discrete-time perturbations in nonlinear dynamical systems to transport a specified initial measure on…

We study the fractional Schr\"odinger equation with quasilocal perturbations. These are a family of nonlocal perturbations vanishing at infinity, which include e.g. convolutions against Schwartz functions. We show that the qualitative…

We review some recent results on minimisers of a non-local perimeter functional, in connection with some phase coexistence models whose diffusion term is given by the fractional Laplacian.

We discuss a model for phase transitions in which a double-well potential is singularly perturbed by possibly several terms involving different, arbitrarily high orders of derivation. We study by $\Gamma$-convergence the asymptotic…

We prove that E. De Giorgi's conjecture for the nonlocal approximation of free-discontinuity problems extends to the case of functionals defined in terms of the symmetric gradient of the admissible field. After introducing a suitable class…

We continue the analysis, started in Morini&Slastikov (2012), of a two-dimensional non-convex variational problem, motivated by studies on magnetic domain walls trapped by thin necks. The main focus is on the impact of extreme geometry on…

We provide a novel sharp-interface analysis via Gamma-convergence for a non-local and non-homogeneous diffuse-interface model for phase transitions, featuring an interplay between a non-local interaction kernel and a spatially dependent…

In this article we study convex non-autonomous variational problems with differential forms and corresponding function spaces. We introduce a general framework for constructing counterexamples to the Lavrentiev gap, which we apply to…

In this self-contained paper, we present a theory of the piecewise linear minimal valid functions for the 1-row Gomory-Johnson infinite group problem. The non-extreme minimal valid functions are those that admit effective perturbations. We…

We consider sensitivity of a semidefinite program under perturbations in the case that the primal problem is strictly feasible and the dual problem is weakly feasible. When the coefficient matrices are perturbed, the optimal values can…

The paper deals with the problem of the existence of a normal form for a nearly-integrable real-analytic Hamiltonian with aperiodically time-dependent perturbation decaying (slowly) in time. In particular, in the case of an isochronous…

Gradient descent algorithms perform well in convex optimization but can get tied for finding local minima in non-convex optimization. A robust method that combines a spectral approach with nonmonotone line search strategy for solving…
