In this note we study the boundary regularity of minimizers of a family of weak anchoring energies that model the states of liquid crystals. We establish optimal boundary regularity in all dimensions $n\geq 3 .$ In dimension $n=3,$ this…
Let $(g^{\alpha\beta}(x))$ and $(h_{ij}(u))$ be uniformly elliptic symmetric matrices, and assume that $h_{ij}(u)$ and $p(x) \, (\, \geq 2)$ are sufficiently smooth. We prove partial regularity of minimizers for the functional [ {\mathcal…
We show how to infer sharp partial regularity results for relaxed minimizers of degenerate, nonuniformly elliptic quasiconvex functionals, using tools from Nonlinear Potential Theory. In particular, in the setting of functionals with…
The paper concerns the analysis of global minimizers of a Dirichlet-type energy functional defined on the space of vector fields $H^1(S,T)$, where $S$ and $T$ are surfaces of revolution. The energy functional we consider is closely related…

In this work, we show the generic uniqueness of minimizers for a large class of energies, including the Alt-Caffarelli and Alt-Phillips functionals. We then prove the generic regularity of free boundaries for minimizers of the one-phase…
In this paper, we study the relaxed energy for biharmonic maps from a $m$-dimensional domain into spheres. By an approximation method, we prove the existence of a minimizer of the relaxed energy of the Hessian energy, and that the minimizer…
We consider almost minimizers to the thin-one phase energy functional and we prove optimal regularity of the solution and partial regularity of the free boundary. We thus recover the theory for energy minimizers. Our methods are based on a…
We prove partial regularity for minimizers of vectorial integrals of the Calculus of Variations, with general growth condition, imposing quasiconvexity assumptions only in an asymptotic sense.
A set of locally finite perimeter $E \subset \mathbb{R}^{n}$ is called an anisotropic minimal surface in an open set $A$ if $\Phi(E;A) \le \Phi(F;A)$ for some surface energy $\Phi(E;A) = \int_{\partial^{*}E \cap A} \| \nu_{E}\| d…
In this paper, we study the regularity of several notions of Lipschitz solutions to the minimal surface system with an emphasis on partial regularity results. These include stationary solutions, integral weak solutions, and viscosity…
Via Gauge theory, we give a new proof of partial regularity for harmonic maps in dimension m>2 into arbitrary targets. This proof avoids the use of adapted frames and permits to consider targets of "minimal" C^2 regularity. The proof we…
A partial regularity theorem is presented for minimisers of $k$th-order functionals subject to a quasiconvexity and general growth condition. We will assume a natural growth condition governed by an $N$-function satisfying the $\Delta_2$…
We consider regularity issues for minima of non-autonomous functionals in the Calculus of Variations exhibiting non-uniform ellipticity features. We provide a few sharp regularity results for local minimizers that also cover the case of…
We prove a partial regularity result for local minimizers of quasiconvex variational integrals with general growth. The main tool is an improved A-harmonic approximation, which should be interesting also for classical growth.
The aim of this short note is to extend the recent variational proof of partial regularity for optimal transport maps to the case of continuous densities.
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.
