Motivated by connections to random matrices, Littlewood-Richardson coefficients and tilings, we study random discrete concave functions on an equilateral lattice. We show that such functions having a periodic Hessian of a fixed average…

We study higher critical points of the variational functional associated with a free boundary problem related to plasma confinement. Existence and regularity of minimizers in elliptic free boundary problems have already been studied…

We are interested in the question of stability in the field of shape optimization, with focus on the strategy using second order shape derivative. More precisely, we identify structural hypotheses on the hessian of the considered shape…

This article consists of two connected parts. In the first part, we study the shift invariant subspaces in certain $\mathcal{P}^2(\mu)$-spaces, which are the closures of analytic polynomials in the Lebesgue spaces $\mathcal{L}^2(\mu)$…

A periodic homogenization result of nonconvex integral functionals in the vectorial case with convex bounded constraints on gradients is proved. The class of integrands considered have singular behavior near the boundary of the convex set…

We prove partial regularity of stationary solutions and minimizers $u$ from a set $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n$ to a Riemannian manifold $N$, for the functional $\int_\Omega F(x,u,|\nabla u|^2) dx$. The integrand $F$ is convex and satisfies…

In the continuous setting, we expect the product of two oscillating functions to oscillate even more (generically). On a graph $G=(V,E)$, there are only $|V|$ eigenvectors of the Laplacian $L=D-A$, so one oscillates `the most'. The purpose…

We study the variational structure of the complex $k$-Hessian equation on bounded domain $X\subset \mathbb C^n$ with boundary $M=\partial X$. We prove that the Dirichlet problem $\sigma_k (\partial \bar{\partial} u) =0$ in $X$, and $u=f$ on…

We prove upper and lower bounds for a variational functional for convex functions satisfying certain boundary conditions on a sector of the unit ball in two dimensions. The functional contains two terms: The full Hessian and its…

We establish a general criterion for the positivity of the variance of a chaotic component of local functionals of stationary vector-valued Gaussian fields. This criterion is formulated in terms of the spectral properties of the covariance…

At a 3/2-cusp of a given plane curve $\gamma(t)$, both of the Euclidean curvature $\kappa_g$ and the affine curvature $\kappa_A$ diverge. In this paper, we show that each of $\sqrt{|s_g|}\kappa_g$ and $(s_A)^2 \kappa_A$ (called the…

This is the second paper in our sequence. Here, we apply our abstract Morse index formulation developed in the previous paper to study several optimization set-ups with constraints, including type I or/and type II considerations. A common…

The convolution properties are discussed for the complex-valued harmonic functions in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ constructed from the harmonic shearing of the analytic function $\phi(z):=\int_0^z…

Suppose that $F$ is a smooth and connected complex surface (not necessarily compact) containing a smooth rational curve with positive self-intersection. We prove that if there exists a non-constant meromorphic function on $F$, then the…

We consider functionals of the form $$\mathcal{F}(u):=\int_\Omega\!F(x,u,\nabla u)\,\mathrm{d} x,$$ where $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ is open and bounded. The integrand $F\colon\Omega\times\mathbb{R}^N\times\mathbb{R}^{N\times…

Let $D^2 \subset C$ be a closed two-dimensional disk and $f:D^2 \to R$ be a continuous function such that a restriction of $f$ to $\partial D^2$ is a continuous function with a finite number of local extrema and $f$ has a finite number of…

We announce new existence and $\varepsilon$-regularity results for minimisers of the relaxation of strongly quasiconvex integrals that on smooth maps $u\colon\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R}^{N}$ are defined by $$u\mapsto…

For one-dimensional interval and integrable weight function $w$ we define via completion a weighted Sobolev space $H^{m,p}_{\mu_w}$ of arbitrary integer order $m$. The weights in consideration may suffer strong degeneration so that, in…

We study Lipschitz critical points of the energy $\int_\Omega g(\det D u) \, d x$ in two dimensions, where $g$ is a strictly convex function. We prove that the Jacobian of any Lipschitz critical point is constant, and that the Jacobians of…

A surface in Euclidean space $\r^3$ is said to be an $\alpha$-stationary surface if it is a critical point of the energy $\int_\Sigma|p|^\alpha$, where $\alpha\in\r$. We prove that all ruled $\alpha$-stationary surfaces are vector planes…
