In this paper, by considering a special case of the spacelike mean curvature flow investigated by Li and Salavessa [6], we get a condition for the existence of smooth solutions of the Dirichlet problem for the minimal surface equation in…
This paper is concerned with six variational problems and their mutual connections: The quadratic Monge-Kantorovich optimal transport, the Schr\"odinger problem, Brenier's relaxed model for incompressible fluids, the so-called Br\"odinger…
Given a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, compact and without boundary, we analyze the dynamical optimal mass transport problem where the cost is given by the sum of the kinetic energy and the relative entropy with respect to a reference…
In this paper we will compare the Plateau's problem with \v{C}ech and singular homological boundary conditions, we also compare these with the size minimizing problem for integral currents with a given boundary. Finally we get the agreement…
In a matter-filled spacetime, perhaps with positive cosmological constant, a stable marginally outer trapped 2-sphere must satisfy a certain area inequality. Namely, as discussed in the paper, its area must be bounded above by $4\pi/c$,…
The Poisson problem consists in finding an immersed surface $\Sigma\subset\mathbb{R}^m$ minimising Germain's elastic energy (known as Willmore energy in geometry) with prescribed boundary, boundary Gauss map and area which constitutes a…
We study the Morse index of minimal surfaces with free boundary in a half-space. We improve previous estimates relating the Neumann index to the Dirichlet index and use this to answer a question of Ambrozio, Buzano, Carlotto, and Sharp…
Given a closed oriented manifold or more generally a group homology class, we introduce the spherical Plateau problem, which is a variational problem corresponding to a topological invariant called the spherical volume. In principle, its…
The Plateau-Douglas problem asks to find an area minimizing surface of fixed or bounded genus spanning a given finite collection of Jordan curves in Euclidean space. In the present paper we solve this problem in the setting of proper metric…
Some optimization problems coming from the Differential Geometry, as for example, the minimal submanifolds problem and the harmonic maps problem are solved here via interior solutions of appropriate multitime optimal control problems.…
We give blow-up analysis for a Brezis-Merle's problem on the boundary. Also we give a proof of a compactness result with Lipschitz condition and weaker assumption on the regularity of the domain (smooth domain or $ C^{2,\alpha} $ domain).
In this manuscript, we delve into the study of maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega;\overline M)$ that minimize the Alt-Caffarelli energy functional $$ \int_\Omega (|Du|^2 + q^2 \chi_{u^{-1}(M)})\,dx, $$ under the condition that the image $u(\Omega)$…
This paper proves an elementary topological fact about closed curves on surfaces, namely that by carefully smoothing an intersection point, one can reduce self-intersection by exactly $1$. This immediately implies a positive answer to a…
We prove several results on Almgren's multiple valued functions and their links to integral currents. In particular, we give a simple proof of the fact that a Lipschitz multiple valued map naturally defines an integer rectifiable current;…
A compressible laminar boundary layer developing over an isotropic porous substrate is investigated by asymptotic and numerical methods. The substrate is modeled as an array of cubes. The momentum and enthalpy balance equations are derived…
Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian $3$-manifold with sectional curvatures between $0$ and $1$. A minimal $2$-sphere immersed in $M$ has area at least $4\pi$. If an embedded minimal sphere has area $4\pi$, then $M$ is isometric to the unit…
We prove that a Sobolev map from a Riemannian manifold into a complete metric space pushes forward almost every compactly supported integral current to an Ambrosio--Kirchheim integral current in the metric target, where "almost every" is…
For compact, isometrically embedded Riemannian manifolds $ N \hookrightarrow \mathbb{R}^L$, we introduce a fourth-order version of the wave map equation. By energy estimates, we prove an $\textit{a priori}$ estimate for smooth local…
The notion of strictly outward minimising hull is investigated for open sets of finite perimeter sitting inside a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. Under natural geometric assumptions on the ambient manifold, the strictly outward…
