We look for critical points with prescribed energy for the family of even functionals $\Phi_\mu=I_1-\mu I_2$, where $I_1,I_2$ are $C^1$ functionals on a Banach space $X$, and $\mu \in \mathbb{R}$. For several classes of $\Phi_\mu$ we prove…

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…

In this work, we establish a new method to find critical points of differentiable functionals defined in Banach spaces which belong to a suitable class ($\mathcal{J}$) of functionals. Once given a functional $J$ in the class…

For a fixed smooth map $u_0$ between two Riemann surfaces $\Sigma$ and $S$ with non-zero degree, we consider the energy function on Teichm\"uller space $\mc{T}$ of $\Sigma$ that assigns to a complex structure $t\in \mc{T}$ on $\Sigma$ the…

Let $E$ be an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space. We show that for every $C^1$ function $f:E\to\mathbb{R}^d$, every open set $U$ with $C_f:=\{x\in E:\,Df(x)\; \text{is not surjective}\}\subset U$ and every continuous function…

We prove that zeros and critical points of a random polynomial $p_N$ of degree $N$ in one complex variable appear in pairs. More precisely, if $p_N$ is conditioned to have $p_N(\xi)=0$ for a fixed $\xi \in \C\backslash\set{0},$ we prove…

In this paper, we prove new existence and multiplicity results for critical points of lower semicontinuous functionals in Banach spaces, complementing the nonsmooth critical point theory set forth by Szulkin and avoiding the need of the…

Fixing a constant $\lambda>0$, for any parameter $\varepsilon>0$ we study critical points of the Yang--Mills--Higgs energy \[ \mathcal{Y}_{\varepsilon}(\nabla,\Phi) = \int_M \varepsilon^2|F_{\nabla}|^2 + |\nabla\Phi|^2 +…

We provide an abstract approach to find couples $(\lambda,u) \in \mathbb{R} \times X$ satisfying $$\Phi_\lambda(u)=c \quad \mbox{and} \quad \Phi'_\lambda(u)=0,$$ for some suitable values of $c \in \mathbb{R}$. Here $\Phi_\lambda$ is a $C^1$…

Given a smoothly bounded non-contractible domain $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^2$, we prove the existence of positive critical points of the Trudinger-Moser embedding for arbitrary Dirichlet energies. This is done via degree theory, sharp…

We prove that the critical points of the 3d nonlinear elasticity functional on shells of small thickness $h$ and around the mid-surface $S$ of arbitrary geometry, converge as $h\to 0$ to the critical points of the von K\'arm\'an functional…

We prove a unified and general criterion for the uniqueness of critical points of a functional in the presence of constraints such as positivity, boundedness, or fixed mass. Our method relies on convexity properties along suitable paths and…

We prove the shifting theorems of the critical groups of critical points and critical orbits for the energy functionals of Finsler metrics on Hilbert manifolds of $H^1$-curves, and two splitting lemmas for the functionals on Banach…

We proceed with the study of the Nehari manifold method for functionals in $C^1(X \setminus \{0\})$, where $X$ is a Banach space. We deal now with functionals whose fibering maps have two critical points (a minimiser followed by a…

We consider a semilinear heat equation involving a forcing term which depends only on the space variable. To start with, the existence of a local mild solution is proved through an application of the Banach fixed-point theorem. With the…

We study a superlinear and subcritical Kirchhoff type equation which is variational and depends upon a real parameter $\lambda$. The nonlocal term forces some of the fiber maps associated with the energy functional to have two critical…

We study the pure Neumann Lane-Emden problem in a bounded domain \[ -\Delta u = |u|^{p-1} u \text{ in }\Omega, \qquad \partial_\nu u=0 \text{ on }\partial \Omega, \] in the subcritical, critical, and supercritical regimes. We show existence…

We derive two fixed point theorems for a class of metric spaces that includes all Banach spaces and all complete Busemann spaces. We obtain our results by the use of a 1-Lipschitz barycenter construction and an existence result for…

We characterize the class of separable Banach spaces $X$ such that for every continuous function $f:X\to\mathbb{R}$ and for every continuous function $\epsilon:X\to\mathbb(0,+\infty)$ there exists a $C^1$ smooth function $g:X\to\mathbb{R}$…

Critical two-point correlation functions in the continuous and lattice phi^4 models with scalar order parameter phi are considered. We show by different non-perturbative methods that the critical correlation functions <phi^n(0) phi^m(x)>…
