We prove the existence, uniqueness, and regularity of minimizers of a polyconvex functional in two and three dimensions, which corresponds to the $H^1$ projection of measure-preserving maps. Our result introduces a new criteria on the…

We prove the existence of a homogenization limit for solutions of appropriately formulated sequences of boundary obstacle problems for the Laplacian on $C^{1,\alpha}$ domains. Specifically, we prove that the energy minimizers $u_\epsilon$…

The gradient flow of the Canham-Helfrich functional is tackled via the Generalized Minimizing Movements approach. We prove the existence of solutions in Wasserstein spaces of varifolds, as well as upper and lower diameter bounds. In the…

We consider the electrostatic Born-Infeld energy \begin{equation*} \int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\left(1-{\sqrt{1-|\nabla u|^2}}\right)\, dx -\int_{\mathbb{R}^N}\rho u\, dx, \end{equation*} where $\rho \in L^{m}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ is an assigned charge…

In this paper, we extend the \emph{principle of least action} and show that a \emph{Lagrange density} always exists for the usual linear pde or linear fractional problems $\oA\,u=f$ in physics, if the usual causality conditions $u|_{t<0}=0$…

We present a fully iterative adaptive algorithm for the numerical minimization of strongly convex energy functionals in Hilbert spaces. The proposed approach, which we first present in abstract form, generates a hierarchical sequence of…

The study of singular perturbations of the Dirichlet energy is at the core of the phenomenological-description paradigm in soft condensed matter. Being able to pass to the limit plays a crucial role in the understanding of the…

For a sequence of immersed connected closed Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian submaniolds in $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ with uniform bounds on their volumes and the total extrinsic curvatures, we prove that a subsequence converges either to a point…

Given two Riemannian manifolds $M$ and $N\subset\mathbb{R}^L$, we consider the energy concentration phenomena of the penalized energy functional $$E_{\epsilon}(u)=\int_M\frac{\vert\nabla u\vert^2}{2}+\frac{F(u)}{\epsilon^2},u\in…

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…

Given a compact Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ and a fixed cohomology class, $[\alpha^*] \in H^k(M)$, we consider the existence of a minimizer $\alpha \in [\alpha^*]$ of the generalized minimal surface energy $\int_M \sqrt{1+|\alpha|^2}…

In the present paper, we consider the following magnetic nonlinear Choquard equation $$ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} & (-i \nabla+A(x))^2u + \mu g(x)u = \lambda u + (|x|^{-\alpha} * |u|^{2^*_\alpha})|u|^{2^*_\alpha-2}u ,\; u>0 \;\text{in} \;…

In this paper we give an explicit sufficient condition for the affine map $u_\lambda(x):=\lambda x$ to be the global energy minimizer of a general class of elastic stored-energy functionals $I(u)=\int_{\Omega} W(\nabla u)\,dx$ in three…

Given a family of locally Lipschitz vector fields $X(x)=(X_1(x),\dots,X_m(x))$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, $m\leq n$, we study integral functionals depending on $X$. Using the results in \cite{MPSC1}, we study the convergence of minima, minimizers…

We consider the equation $$-\Delta u+u=Q_\varepsilon(x)|u|^{p-2}u,\qquad u\in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N),$$ where $Q_\varepsilon$ takes the value $1$ on each ball $B_\varepsilon(y)$, $y\in\mathbb{Z}^N$, and the value $-1$ elsewhere. We establish the…

The canonical structure of the Einstein-Hilbert Lagrange density $L=\sqrt{-g}R$ is examined in two spacetime dimensions, using the metric density $h^{\mu \nu}\equiv \sqrt{-g}g^{\mu \nu}$ and symmetric affine connection $\Gamma_{\sigma…

We consider the classical initial and boundary value problem for the Cahn--Hilliard equation with non-degenerate mobility and singular (e.g., logarithmic) potential. We prove that any weak solution converges to a single equilibrium using…

Given a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ and a finite measure space $\Omega$, the approximation of a vector-valued function $f: \Omega \to \mathcal H$ by a $k$-dimensional subspace $\mathcal U \subset \mathcal H$ plays an important role in…

We make some remarks on the Euler-Lagrange equation of energy functional $I(u)=\int_\Omega f(\det Du)\,dx,$ where $f\in C^1(\mathbb R).$ For certain weak solutions $u$ we show that the function $f'(\det Du)$ must be a constant over the…

We consider the Cahn-Hilliard equation in one space dimension with scaling a small parameter \epsilon and a non-convex potential W. In the limit \espilon \to 0, under the assumption that the initial data are energetically well-prepared, we…
