We consider a model of Branching Brownian Motion with time-inhomogeneous variance of the form \sigma(t/T), where \sigma is a strictly decreasing function. Fang and Zeitouni (2012) showed that the maximal particle's position M_T is such that…
Classical (or ``global'') Bernstein theory establishes sharp control on entire functions of exponential type that are bounded and real-valued on the real axis. We localize some of this theory to rectangular regions $\{ x+iy: x \in I, 0 \leq…

In this note two results are established for energy functionals that are given by the integral of $ W(\mathbf x,\nabla \mathbf u(\mathbf x))$ over $\Omega \subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with $\nabla \mathbf u \in BMO(\Omega;{\mathbb R}^{N\times n})$,…
Let $(\Sigma_A, \sigma)$ be a subshift of finite type and let $M(x)$ be a continuous function on $\Sigma_A$ taking values in the set of non-negative matrices. We extend the classical scalar pressure function to this new setting and prove…
We deal with finite dimensional linear and nonlinear control systems. If the system is linear and autonomous and satisfies the classical normality assumption, we improve the well known result on the strict convexity of the reachable set…
This paper is a complement to the studies on the minimum of a real-valued branching random walk. In the boundary case (Biggins, Kyprianou 2005), A\"{i}d\'ekon in a seminal paper (2013) obtained the convergence in law of the minimum after a…
In this article, we consider and analyse a small variant of a functional originally introduced in \cite{BLS,LS} to approximate the (geometric) planar Steiner problem. This functional depends on a small parameter $\varepsilon>0$ and…
The search of the optimal constant for a generalized Wirtinger inequality in an interval consists in minimizing the $p$-norm of the derivative among all functions whose $q$-norm is equal to~1 and whose $(r-1)$-power has zero average.…
The functionals of double phase type \[ \mathcal{H} (u):= \int \left(|Du|^{p} + a(x)|Du|^{q} \right) dx, ( q > p > 1, a(x)\geq 0) \] are introduced in the epoch-making paper by Colombo-Mingione for constants $p$ and $q$, and investigated by…
We consider the Perona-Malik functional in dimension one, namely an integral functional whose Lagrangian is convex-concave with respect to the derivative, with a convexification that is identically zero. We approximate and regularize the…
We establish local $C^{1,\alpha}$-regularity for some $\alpha\in(0,1)$ and $C^{\alpha}$-regularity for any $\alpha\in(0,1)$ of local minimizers of the functional \[ v\ \mapsto\ \int_\Omega \phi(x,|Dv|)\,dx, \] where $\phi$ satisfies a…
We consider the one-dimensional Perona-Malik functional, that is the energy associated to the celebrated forward-backward equation introduced by P. Perona and J. Malik in the context of image processing, with the addition of a forcing term.…
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…
We have an $\m\x\n$ real-valued arbitrary matrix $A$ (e.g. a dictionary) with $\m<\n$ and data $d$ describing the sought-after object with the help of $A$. This work provides an in-depth analysis of the (local and global) minimizers of an…

We propose a new length formula that governs the iterates of the momentum method when minimizing differentiable semialgebraic functions with locally Lipschitz gradients. It enables us to establish local convergence, global convergence, and…
