This paper is concerned with the macroscopic behavior of global energy minimizers in the three-dimensional sharp interface unscreened Ohta-Kawasaki model of diblock copolymer melts. This model is also referred to as the nuclear liquid drop…
We study global minimizers of a continuum Landau-De Gennes energy functional for nematic liquid crystals, in three-dimensional domains, subject to uniaxial boundary conditions. We analyze the physically relevant limit of small elastic…
We establish an epsilon-regularity theorem at points in the free boundary of almost-minimizers of the energy $\mathrm{Per}_{w}(E)=\int_{\partial^*E}w\,\mathrm{d} {\mathscr{H}}^{n-1}$, where $w$ is a weight asymptotic to…
In this paper, we prove a Poincar\'e-type inequality for any set of finite perimeter which is stable with respect to the free energy among volume-preserving perturbation, provided that the Hausdorff dimension of its singular set is at most…
We investigate low-regularity integrator (LRI) methods for the Q-tensor model governing nematic liquid-crystalline semilinear parabolic equation. First- and second-order temporal discretizations are developed using Duhamel's formula, and we…
Anisotropic fluids, such as nematic liquid crystals, can form non-spherical equilibrium shapes known as tactoids. Predicting the shape of these structures as a function of material parameters is challenging and paradigmatic of a broader…
We consider a variational model for periodic partitions of the upper half-space into three regions, where two of them have prescribed volume and are subject to the geometrical constraint that their union is the subgraph of a function, whose…
We study the occurrence of domain branching in a class of $(d+1)$-dimensional sharp interface models featuring the competition between an interfacial energy and a non-local field energy. Our motivation comes from branching in uniaxial…
The problem of finding the optimal current distribution supported by small radiators yielding the minimum quality (Q) factor is a fundamental problem in electromagnetism. Q factor bounds constrain the maximum operational bandwidth of…
We investigate partial regularity for vector valued local minimizers of double phase functionals, under vectorial obstacle type constraints satisfying appropriate topological properties.
For the Landau-de Gennes functional on 3D domains, \begin{equation*} I_{\varepsilon}(Q,\Omega):=\int_{\Omega}\left\{\frac{1}{2}|\nabla Q|^2+\frac{1}{\varepsilon^2}\left(…
We consider the incompressible Euler equations in a bounded domain in three space dimensions. Recently, the first two authors proved Onsager's conjecture for bounded domains, i.e., that the energy of a solution to these equations is…
For the thin obstacle problem in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, we prove that at all free boundary points, with the exception of a $(n-3)$-dimensional set, the solution differs from its blow-up by higher order corrections. This expansion…
We consider a minimization problem that combines the Dirichlet energy with the nonlocal perimeter of a level set, namely $$ \int_\Om |\nabla u(x)|^2\,dx+\Per\Big(\{u > 0\},\Om \Big),$$ with $\sigma\in(0,1)$. We obtain regularity results for…
In this paper, we prove the energy and cross-helicity conservation of weak solutions to the three-dimensional ideal MHD equations in bounded domain under the interior Besov regularity conditions which are exactly same as the…
We solve explicitly a certain minimization problem for probability measures in one dimension involving an interaction energy that arises in the modelling of aggregation phenomena. We show that in a certain regime minimizers are absolutely…
This article deals with the variable coefficient thin obstacle problem in $n+1$ dimensions. We address the regular free boundary regularity, the behavior of the solution close to the free boundary and the optimal regularity of the solution…
We study $Q$-ball type solitons in arbitrary spatial dimensions in the setting recently described by Kusenko, where the scalar field potential has a flat direction which rises much slower than $\phi^2$. We find that the general formula for…
Within the framework of the generalized Landau-de Gennes theory, we identify a $Q$-tensor-based energy that reduces to the four-constant Oseen-Frank energy when it is considered over orientable uniaxial nematic states. Although the commonly…
We prove {the first} regularity theorem for the free boundary of solutions to shape optimization problems involving integral functionals, for which the energy of a domain $\Omega$ is obtained as the integral of a cost function $j(u,x)$…
