We provide new general methods in the calculus of variations for the anisotropic Plateau problem in arbitrary dimension and codimension. A new direct proof of Almgren's 1968 existence result is presented; namely, we produce from a class of…

We present some old and recent regularity results concerning minimal and almost minimal sets in domains of the Euclidean space. We concentrate on a sliding variant of Almgren's notion of minimality, which is well suited in the context of…

Plateau's soap film problem is to find a surface of least area spanning a given boundary. We begin with a compact orientable $(n-2)$-dimensional submanifold $M$ of $\R^n$. If $M$ is connected, we say a compact set $X$ "spans" $M$ if $X$…

We prove existence and a.e. regularity of an area minimizing soap film with a bound on energy spanning a given Jordan curve in R^3. The energy of a film is defined to be the sum of its surface area and the length of its singular branched…

We consider the problem of minimising an inhomogeneous anisotropic elliptic functional in a class of closed $m$ dimensional subsets of $\mathbf{R}^n$ which is stable under taking smooth deformations homotopic to the identity and under local…

This paper aims to propose a direct approach to solve the Plateau's problem in codimension higher than one. The problem is formulated as the minimization of the Hausdorff measure among a family of $d$-rectifiable closed subsets of $\mathbb…

We study the soap film capillarity problem, in which soap films are modeled as sets of least perimeter among those having prescribed (small) volume and satisfying a topological spanning condition. When the given boundary is the closed…

Solving the Plateau problem means to find the surface with minimal area among all surfaces with a given boundary. Part of the problem actually consists of giving a suitable definition to the notions of 'surface', 'area' and 'boundary'. In…

We prove existence and regularity of minimizers for H\"older densities over general surfaces of arbitrary dimension and codimension in \(\R^n \), satisfying a cohomological boundary condition, providing a natural dual to Reifenberg's…

That is, given a compact set $B \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ (the boundary) and a subgroup $L$ of the \v{C}ech homology group $\check{H}_{d-1}(B;G)$ of dimension $d$ over some commutative group $G$, we find a compact set $E \supset B$ such that…

We prove a compactness principle for the anisotropic formulation of the Plateau problem in any codimension, in the same spirit of the previous works of the authors \cite{DelGhiMag,DePDeRGhi,DeLDeRGhi16}. In particular, we perform a new…

We study the local regularity of sliding almost minimal sets of dimension 2 in $R^n$ , bounded by a smooth curve $L$. These are a good way to model soap films bounded by a curve, and their definition is similar to Almgren's. We aim for a…

We study generalized minimizers in the soap film capillarity model introduced in [arXiv:1807.05200,arXiv:1907.00551]. Collapsed regions of generalized minimizers are shown to be smooth outside of dimensionally small singular sets, which are…

Motivated by the study of the equilibrium equations for a soap film hanging from a wire frame, we prove a compactness theorem for surfaces with asymptotically vanishing mean curvature and fixed or converging boundaries. In particular, we…

Soap films at equilibrium are modeled, rather than as surfaces, as regions of small total volume through the introduction of a capillarity problem with a homotopic spanning condition. This point of view introduces a length scale in the…

In Hilbert space setting we prove local lipchitzness of projections onto parametric polyhedral sets represented as solutions to systems of inequalities and equations with parameters appearing both in left-hand-sides and right-hand-sides of…

Cox & Jones recently devised and studied an interesting variant of the classical Plateau problem, a variant in which a helical soap film is confined to a cylindrical tube with circular cross-section. Through experiments, numerics, and some…

We prove that in a closed Riemannian manifold with dimension between $3$ and $7$, either there are minimal hypersurfaces with arbitrarily large area, or there exist uncountably many stable minimal hypersurfaces. Moreover, the latter case…

In [15], Jean Taylor has proved a regularity theorem away from boundary for Almgren almost minimal sets of dimension two in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. It is quite important for understanding the soap films and the solutions of Plateau's problem away…

We study the existence of area-minimizing homotopies between homotopic curves in the plane. While the classical Plateau problem establishes the existence of least-area surfaces spanning a single Jordan curve, the corresponding existence…
