We study minimisers of the $p$-conformal energy functionals, \[ \mathsf{E}_p(f):=\int_\ID \IK^p(z,f)\,dz,\quad f|_\IS=f_0|_\IS, \] defined for self mappings $f:\ID\to\ID$ with finite distortion and prescribed boundary values $f_0$. Here \[…

The optimal local Lipschitz regularity for scalar almost-minimizers of Alt-Caffarelli-type functionals $$ \mathcal{F}({v}; \Omega) = \int_\Omega \varphi(x,\left|\nabla v(x) \right|)+ \lambda \chi_{\{{v} >0\}} (x) \, \mathrm{d}x\,, $$ with…

This paper deals with the Lipschitz regularity of minimizers for a class of variational obstacle problems with possible occurance of the Lavrentiev phenomenon. In order to overcome this problem, the availment of the notions of relaxed…

In this paper we slightly improve the regularity theory for the so called optimal design problem. We first establish the uniform rectifiability of the boundary of the optimal set, for a larger class of minimizers, in any dimension. As an…

We consider the global well-posedness of weak energy conservative solution to a general quasilinear wave equation through variational principle, where the solution may form finite time cusp singularity, when energy concentrates. As a main…

We study the symmetry and uniqueness of maps which minimise the $np$-Dirichlet energy, under the constraint that their Jacobian is a given radially symmetric function $f$. We find a condition on $f$ which ensures that the minimisers are…

We minimise the Canham-Helfrich energy in the class of closed immersions with prescribed genus, surface area and enclosed volume. Compactness is achieved in the class of oriented varifolds. The main result is a lower-semicontinuity estimate…

For minimizers in a geometrically nonlinear Cosserat model for micropolar elasticity of continua, we prove interior H\"older regularity, up to isolated singular points that may be possible if the exponent $p$ from the model is $2$ or in…

We prove an $\epsilon$-regularity theorem for vector-valued p-harmonic maps, which are critical with respect to a partially free boundary condition, namely that they map the boundary into a round sphere. This does not seem to follow from…
