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.
We study dynamic minimization problems of the calculus of variations with generalized Lagrangian functionals that depend on a general linear operator $K$ and defined on bounded-time intervals. Under assumptions of regularity, convexity and…
In this paper we prove the uniqueness and radial symmetry of minimizers for variational problems that model several phenomena. The uniqueness is a consequence of the convexity of the functional. The main technique is Fourier transform of…
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…
Variational problems under uniform quasiconvex constraints on the gradient are studied. In particular, existence of solutions to such problems is proved as well as existence of lagrange multipliers associated to the uniform constraint. They…
The aim of this paper is to give an existence result for a class of one-dimensional, non-convex, non-coercive problems in the Calculus of Variations. The main tools for the proof are an existence theorem in the convex case and the closure…
We study minimizers of non-autonomous energies with minimal growth and coercivity assumptions on the energy. We show that the minimizer is nevertheless the solution of the relevant Euler--Lagrange equation or inequality. The main tool is an…
The problem of minimizing an integral functional of a vector-valued Lagrangian on a set of admissible arcs with given endpoints is considered. The problem is tackled by embedding it into a set-optimization problem such that the image space…
We provide a simple proof of the radial symmetry of any nonnegative minimizer for a general class of quasi-linear minimization problems
Existence results for radially symmetric oscillating solutions for a class of nonlinear autonomous Helmholtz equations are given and their exact asymptotic behavior at infinity is established. Some generalizations to nonautonomous radial…
We provide a simple proof of the radial symmetry of any nonnegative minimizer for a general class of quasi-linear minimization problems.
English version of abstract: The dynamic optimization problems treated by the calculus of variations are usually solved with the help of the 2nd order Euler-Lagrange differential equations. These equations are, generally speaking,…
We study in this paper the continuous and discrete Euler-Lagrange equations arising from a quadratic lagrangian. Those equations may be thought as numerical schemes and may be solved through a matrix based framework. When the lagrangian is…
We prove the existence of minimizers of causal variational principles on second countable, locally compact Hausdorff spaces. Moreover, the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equations are derived. The method is to first prove the existence of…
We investigate the properties of minimizers of one-dimensional variational problems when the Lagrangian has no higher smoothness than continuity. An elementary approximation result is proved, but it is shown that this cannot be in general…
We introduce a discrete-time fractional calculus of variations. First and second order necessary optimality conditions are established. Examples illustrating the use of the new Euler-Lagrange and Legendre type conditions are given. They…
A scheme for generating a family of convex variational principles is developed, the Euler- Lagrange equations of each member of the family formally corresponding to the necessary conditions of optimal control of a given system of ordinary…
We establish general assumptions under which a constrained vari- ational problem involving the fractional gradient and a local nonlin- earity admits minimizers.
The global existence of weak solutions for the three-dimensional axisymmetric Euler-$\alpha$ (also known as Lagrangian-averaged Euler-$\alpha$) equations, without swirl, is established, whenever the initial unfiltered velocity $v_0$…
We use variational methods to study the existence of nontrivial and radially symmetric solutions to the H\`enon-Lane-Emden system with weights, when the exponents involved lie on the "critical hyperbola". We also discuss qualitative…
