We study variational problems for second order supremal functionals $\mathrm F_\infty(u)= \|F(\cdot,u,\mathrm D u,\mathrm{A}\!:\!\mathrm D^2u)\|_{\mathrm L^{\infty}(\Omega)}$, where $F$ satisfies certain natural assumptions, $\mathrm A$ is…

Let $\Omega\subset {\bf R}^n$ be a smooth bounded domain. In this paper, we prove a result of which the following is a by-product: Let $q\in ]0,1[$, $\alpha\in L^{\infty}(\Omega)$, with $\alpha>0$, and $k\in {\bf N}$. Then, the problem…

We prove the existence of Absolutely Minimizing Lipschitz Extensions by a method which differs from those used by G. Aronsson in general metrically convex compact metric spaces and R. Jensen in Euclidean spaces. Assuming Jensen's…

We will study an open problem pertaining to the uniqueness of minimizers for a class of variational problems emanating from Meyer's model for the decomposition of an image into a geometric part and a texture part. Mainly, we are interested…

In this paper we consider minimizers for nonlocal energy functionals generalizing elastic energies that are connected with the theory of peridynamics \cite{Silling2000} or nonlocal diffusion models \cite{Rossi}. We derive nonlocal versions…

It is well known that a strictly convex minimand admits at most one minimizer. We prove a partial converse: Let $X$ be a locally convex Hausdorff space and $f \colon X \mapsto \left( - \infty , \infty \right]$ a function with compact…

We study existence, uniqueness, and regularity properties of the Dirichlet problem related to fractional Dirichlet energy minimizers in a complete doubling metric measure space $(X,d_X,\mu_X)$ satisfying a $2$-Poincar\'e inequality. Given a…

The paper studies the existence of minimizers for Rayleigh quotients $\mu_{\Omega}=\inf\frac{\int_\Omega|\nabla u|^2}{\int_\Omega V{|u|^2}} $, where $\Omega$ is a domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, and $V$ is a nonzero nonnegative function that may…

We prove the partial H\"older continuity for minimizers of quasiconvex functionals \[ \mathcal{F}({\bf u}) \colon =\int_{\Omega} f(x,{\bf u},D{\bf u})\,\mathrm{d}x, \] where $f$ satisfies a uniform VMO condition with respect to the…

Finding the minimum and the minimizers of convex functions has been of primary concern in convex analysis since its conception. It is well-known that if a convex function has a minimum, then that minimum is global. The minimizers, however,…

We derive the Euler-Lagrange equations for minimizers of causal variational principles in the non-compact setting with constraints, possibly prescribing symmetries. Considering first variations, we show that the minimizing measure is…

Let $\Omega \Subset \mathbb R^n$, $f \in C^1(\mathbb R^{N\times n})$ and $g\in C^1(\mathbb R^N)$, where $N,n \in \mathbb N$. We study the minimisation problem of finding $u \in W^{1,\infty}_0(\Omega;\mathbb R^N)$ that satisfies \[ \big\|…

We study the functional considered in~\cite{2011PhRvB..84f4205G,2014CMaPh.tmp..127G,GiuSeirGS} and a continuous version of it, analogous to the one considered in~\cite{GR}. The functionals consist of a perimeter term and a non-local term…

Nonconvex functionals with spherical symmetry are studied. Existence of one and radial symmetry of all global minimizers is shown with an approach based on convex relaxation.

Denote by $E_\epsilon$ the Ginzburg-Landau functional in the plane and let $\tilde u_\varepsilon$ be the radial solution to the Euler equation associated to the problem $\min \left\{E_\varepsilon(u,B_1): \>\left. u\right\vert _{\partial…

We consider entire solutions $u$ to the minimal surface equation in $R^N$, with $ N\ge8,$ and we prove the following sharp result : if $N-7$ partial derivatives $ \frac{\partial u }{\partial {x_j}}$ are bounded on one side (not necessarily…

In this short note we give a proof of Liouville's theorem (every bounded entire complex function is constant) following Peterzil and Starchenko's approach to complex analysis via o-minimality.

This paper establishes the argmin of a random objective function to be unique almost surely. This paper first formulates a general result that proves almost sure uniqueness without convexity of the objective function. The general result is…

In this paper we study nonnegative minimizers of general degenerate elliptic functionals, $\int F(X,u,Du) dX \to \min$, for variational kernels $F$ that are discontinuous in $u$ with discontinuity of order $\sim \chi_{\{u > 0 \}}$. The…

In this paper, we study the existence of minimizers for a class of constrained minimization problems derived from the Schr\"{o}dinger-Poisson equations: $$-\Delta u+V(x)u+(|x|^{-1}*u^2)u-|u|^\frac{4}{3}u=\lambda u,~~x\in\R^3$$ on the…
