We continue the analysis of a family of energies penalizing oscillations in oblique directions: they apply to functions $u(x_1,x_2)$ with $x_l\in\mathbb{R}^{n_l}$ and vanish when $u(x)$ is of the form $u_1(x_1)$ or $u_2(x_2)$. We mainly…

If $u : \Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d \to {\rm X}$ is a harmonic map valued in a metric space ${\rm X}$ and ${\sf E} : {\rm X} \to \mathbb{R}$ is a convex function, in the sense that it generates an ${\rm EVI}_0$-gradient flow, we prove that…

We present new results concerning the approximation of the total variation, $\int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|$, of a function $u$ by non-local, non-convex functionals of the form $$ \Lambda_\delta u = \int_{\Omega} \int_{\Omega} \frac{\delta…

We prove results on the relaxation and weak* lower semicontinuity of integral functionals of the form \[ \mathcal{F}[u] := \int_{\Omega} f \bigg( \frac{1}{2} \bigl( \nabla u(x) + \nabla u(x)^T \bigr) \bigg)\,\mathrm{d} x, \qquad u : \Omega…

We consider the relaxation of polyconvex functionals with linear growth with respect to the strict convergence in the space of functions of bounded variation. These functionals appears as relaxation of $F(u,\Omega):=\int_\Omega f(\nabla…

We consider variational integrals of the form $\int F(D^2u)$ where $F$ is convex and smooth on the Hessian space. We show that a critical point $u\in W^{2,\infty}$ of such a functional under compactly supported variations is smooth if the…

We study integral functionals defined on scalar Sobolev spaces of the form $$E[f]:u\mapsto \int_\Omega f(x,u(x),\nabla u(x)) d x,$$ with an emphasis on the non-convex case, and the difficulties it involves to prevent the Lavrentiev…

Here we develop a regularity theory for a polyconvex functional in $2\times2-$dimensional compressible finite elasticity. In particular, we consider energy minimizers/stationary points of the functional…

We prove some new a priori estimates for H_2-convex functions which are zero on the boundary of a bounded smooth domain \Omega in a Carnot group G. Such estimates are global and are geometric in nature as they involve the horizontal mean…

In this short note we consider an unconventional overdetermined problem for the torsion function: let $n\geq 2$ and $\Omega$ be a bounded open set in $\mathbb{R}^n$ whose torsion function $u$ (i.e. the solution to $\Delta u=-1$ in $\Omega$,…

We consider a family $\{L_t,\, t\in [0,T]\}$ of closed operators generated by a family of regular (non-symmetric) Dirichlet forms $\{(B^{(t)},V),t\in[0,T]\}$ on $L^2(E;m)$. We show that a bounded (signed) measure $\mu$ on $(0,T)\times E$ is…

In this work, we investigate a coordinate space structure function ${\cal E}(z^2m^2,\lambda)$ in the 2D $U(N)$ Gross-Neveu model to the next-to-leading order in the large-$N$ expansion. We analytically perform the twist expansion in the…

For any $M, n \geq 2$ and any open set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ we find a smooth, strongly polyconvex function $F\colon \mathbb{R}^{M\times n}\to \mathbb{R}$ and a Lipschitz map $u\colon \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^M$ that is a weak…

Let $f$ be a nonzero holomorphic function in the unit ball $\mathbb B$ of the $n$-dimensional complex Euclidean space $\mathbb C^n$ such that the function $f$ vanishes on the set ${\sf Z}\subset \mathbb B$ and satisfies the constraint…

Isotropic positive definite functions on spheres play important roles in spatial statistics, where they occur as the correlation functions of homogeneous random fields and star-shaped random particles. In approximation theory, strictly…

In this paper, we obtain estimates on the quantitative strata of the critical set of non-trivial harmonic functions $u$ which vanish continuously on $V \subset \partial \Omega$, a relatively open subset of the boundary of a convex domain…

We study some non-local functionals on the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}_0(\Omega)$ involving a double integral on $\Omega\times\Omega$ with respect to a measure $\mu$. We introduce a suitable notion of convergence of measures on product spaces…

We establish a general weak* lower semicontinuity result in the space $\BD(\Omega)$ of functions of bounded deformation for functionals of the form $$\Fcal(u) := \int_\Omega f \bigl(x, \Ecal u \bigr) \dd x + \int_\Omega f^\infty \Bigl(x,…

A new class of continuous valuations on the space of convex functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is introduced. On smooth convex functions, they are defined for $i=0,\dots,n$ by \begin{equation*} u\mapsto \int_{\mathbb{R}^n} \zeta(u(x),x,\nabla…

In arXiv:1304.0630, it was shown that convex, almost everywhere continuous functions coordinatize a broad class of probability measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$ by the map $U \mapsto (\nabla U)_{\#} e^{-U} dx$. We consider whether there is a…
