The purpose of this article is to establish new lower bounds for the sums of powers of eigenvalues of the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian operator $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}|_{\Omega}$ restricted to a bounded domain $\Omega\subset{\mathbb R}^d$…

We consider the domain dependence of the best constant in the subcritical fractional Sobolev constant, $$ \lambda_{s,p}(\Omega):=\inf \left\{ [u]_{H^s(\mathbb{R}^N)}^2,\,\, u\in C^\infty_c(\Omega),\,\, \|u\|_{L^p(\Omega)}=1 \right\}, $$…

Optimization under structural constraints is typically analyzed through projection or penalty methods, obscuring the geometric mechanism by which constraints shape admissible dynamics. We propose an operator-theoretic formulation in which…

We consider a spacecraft formation reconfiguration problem in the case of identical spacecraft. This introduces in the optimal reconfiguration problem a permutational degree of freedom, in addition to the choice of individual spacecraft…

We consider the eigenvalues problem for the the fractional Laplacian in a bounded domain Omega with Dirichlet boundary condition. A recent result by Fall, Ghimenti, Micheletti and Pistoia (CVPDE (2023)) states that under generic small…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, smooth domain. Supposing that $\alpha(p) + \beta(p) = p$, $\forall\, p \in \left(\frac{N}{s},\infty\right)$ and $\displaystyle\lim_{p \to \infty} \alpha(p)/{p} = \theta \in (0,1)$, we consider two systems for the…

The aim of this work is to give a broad panorama of the control properties of fractional diffusive models from a numerical analysis and simulation perspective. We do this by surveying several research results we obtained in the last years,…

We investigate the Dirichlet boundary control of the Laplace equation, considering the control in $H^{1/2}(\partial \Omega)$, which is the natural space for Dirichlet data when the state belongs to $H^1(\Omega)$. The cost of the control is…

The celebrated conjecture by Payne, P\'{o}lya and Weinberger (1956) states that for the fixed membrane problem, the ratio of the first two eigenvalues, $\lambda_2/\lambda_1$, is maximized by a disk. A more general dimensional version of…

We study the optimal lower and upper complexity bounds for finding approximate solutions to the composite problem $\min_x\ f(x)+h(Ax-b)$, where $f$ is smooth and $h$ is convex. Given access to the proximal operator of $h$, for strongly…

We present some new problems in spectral optimization. The first one consists in determining the best domain for the Dirichlet energy (or for the first eigenvalue) of the {\it metric Laplacian}, and we consider in particular Riemannian or…

In this paper, we study a maximization and a minimization problem associated with a Poisson boundary value problem. Optimal solutions in a set of rearrangements of a given function define stationary and stable flows of an ideal fluid in two…

We adopt the integral definition of the fractional Laplace operator and analyze an optimal control problem for a fractional semilinear elliptic partial differential equation (PDE); control constraints are also considered. We establish the…

The aim of this paper is two-fold: first, we look at the fractional Laplacian and the conformal fractional Laplacian from the general framework of representation theory on symmetric spaces and, second, we construct new boundary operators…

This paper continues the study of the mixed problem for the Laplacian. We consider a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega\subset \reals^n$, $n\geq2$, with boundary that is decomposed as $\partial\Omega=D\cup N$, $D$ and $N$ disjoint. We let…

We consider a new type of obstacle problem in the cylindrical domain $\Omega=D\times (0,1)$ arising from minimization of the functional $$ \int_\Omega \frac{1}{2}|\nabla u|^2+\chi_{\{v>0\}}udx, $$ where $v(x')=\int_0^1 u(x', t) dt $. We…

This paper is devoted to a complete characterization of the free boundary of all solutions to the following spectral $k$-partition problem with measure and inclusion constraints: \[ \inf \left\{\sum_{i=1}^k \lambda_1(\omega_i)\; : \;…

In this paper we study the first Steklov-Laplacian eigenvalue with an internal fixed spherichal obstacle. We prove that the spherical shell locally maximizes the first eigenvalue among nearly spherical sets when both the internal ball and…

We investigate a PDE-constrained optimization problem, with an intuitive interpretation in terms of the design of robust membranes made out of an arbitrary number of different materials. We prove existence and uniqueness of solutions for…

A broad class of optimization problems can be cast in composite form, that is, considering the minimization of the composition of a lower semicontinuous function with a differentiable mapping. This paper investigates the versatile template…
