We prove the existence of minimizers in the class of negative definite measures on compact subsets of momentum space in the homogeneous setting under several side conditions (constraints). The method is to employ Prohorov's theorem. Given a…

We study existence, structure, uniqueness and regularity of solutions of the obstacle problem \begin{equation*} \inf_{u\in BV_f(\Omega)}\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\phi(x,Du), \end{equation*} where $BV_f(\Omega)=\{u\in BV(\Omega): u\geq \psi \text{…

We discover a new minimality property of the absolute minimisers of supremal functionals (also known as $L^\infty$ Calculus of Variations problems).

We study the non-linear minimization problem on $H^1_0(\Omega)\subset L^q$ with $q=\frac{2n}{n-2}$, $\alpha>0$ and $n\geq4$~: \[\inf_{\substack{u\in H^1_0(\Omega) \|u\|_{L^q}=1}}\int_\Omega a(x,u)|\nabla u|^2 - \lambda \int_{\Omega}…

We consider $\mathbb{S}^2$-valued maps on a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$ minimizing a perturbation of the Dirichlet energy with vertical penalization in $\Omega$ and horizontal penalization on $\partial\Omega$. We first show the…

We prove the existence of minimizers for some constrained variational problems on $BV(\Omega)$, under subcritical and critical restrictions, involving the affine energy introduced by Zhang in \cite{Z}. Related functionals have non-coercive…

We establish general assumptions under which a constrained vari- ational problem involving the fractional gradient and a local nonlin- earity admits minimizers.

In this work we establish some rigidity results for Serrin's overdetermined problem \begin{equation*} \left\{ \begin{array}{cll} - \Delta u=f(u) & \text{in}& \Omega,\newline u > 0& \text{in} & \Omega,\newline u=0 & \text{on} & \partial…

We study the fully nonlinear elliptic equation $F(D^2u,Du,u,x) = f$ in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$, under the assumption the nonlinearity $F$ is uniformly elliptic and positively homogeneous. Recently, it has been shown that such…

We study the minimizers of a functional on the set of partitions of a domain $\Omega \subset R^n$ into $N$ subsets $W_j$ of locally finite perimeter in $\Omega$, whose main term is $\sum_{j=1^N} \int_{\Omega \cap \partial W_j} a(x)…

We explore the interaction between Lebesgue measure and dominating functions. We show, via both a priority construction and a forcing construction, that there is a function of incomplete degree that dominates almost all degrees. This…

We make some remarks on the Euler-Lagrange equation of energy functional $I(u)=\int_\Omega f(\det Du)\,dx,$ where $f\in C^1(\mathbb R).$ For certain weak solutions $u$ we show that the function $f'(\det Du)$ must be a constant over the…

Let us consider the autonomous obstacle problem \begin{equation*} \min_v \int_\Omega F(Dv(x)) \, dx \end{equation*} on a specific class of admissible functions, where we suppose the Lagrangian satisfies proper hypotheses of convexity and…

In this paper, we consider functionals of the form $H_\alpha(u)=F(u)+\alpha G(u)$ with $\alpha\in[0,+\infty)$, where $u$ varies in a set $U\neq\emptyset$ (without further structure). We first revisit a result stating that, excluding at most…

We prove global $W^{1,q}(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^N)$-regularity for minimisers of $\mathscr{F}(u)=\int_\Omega F(x,\mathrm{D}u)\mathrm{d} x$ satisfying $u\geq \psi$ for a given Sobolev obstacle $\psi$. $W^{1,q}(\Omega,\mathbb{R}^m)$ regularity is…

Let $(\Omega,\mu)$ be a $\sigma$-finite measure space, and let $X\subset L^1(\Omega)+L^\infty(\Omega)$ be a fully symmetric space of measurable functions on $(\Omega,\mu)$. If $\mu(\Omega)=\infty$, necessary and sufficient conditions are…

We establish conditions to ensure the existence of minimizer for a class of mass-constrained functionals involving a nonattractive point interaction in three dimensions. The existence of minimizers follows from the compactness of minimizing…

We give an example of a convex, finite and lower semicontinuous function whose subdifferential is everywhere empty. This is possible since the function is defined on an incomplete normed space. The function serves as a universal…

We describe a `discretize-then-relax' strategy to globally minimize integral functionals over functions $u$ in a Sobolev space subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions. The strategy applies whenever the integral functional depends…

We study the periodic Hartree-Fock model used for the description of electrons in a crystal. The existence of a minimizer was previously shown by Catto, Le Bris and Lions (Ann. Inst. H. Poincare Anal. Non Lineaire} 18 (2001), no.6,…
