We analyze the topological structure of the Nehari set for a class of functionals depending on a real parameter $\lambda$, and having two degrees of homogeneity. A special attention is paid to the extremal parameter $\lambda^*$, which is…

We prove uniqueness for minimizers of the weighted least gradient problem \[\inf \left\lbrace \int_{\Omega} a|Du|: \ \ u\in BV(\Omega), \ \ u|_{\partial \Omega}=f \right\rbrace.\] The weight function $a$ is assumed to be continuous and it…

In this paper we establish, using variational methods combined with the Moser-Trudinger inequality, existence and multiplicity of weak solutions for a class of critical fractional elliptic equations with exponential growth without a…

We study the minimizing problem $\inf\left\{\displaystyle\int_{\Omega}p(x)|\nabla u|^{2}dx,\,u\in H^{1}_{0}(\Omega),\,\|u\|_{L^{\frac{2N}{N-2}}(\Omega)}=1\right\}$ where $\Omega$ is a smooth bounded domain of $\R^{N}$, $N\geq 3$ and $p$ a…

It is well-known that convex variational problems with linear growth and Dirichlet boundary conditions might not have minimizers if the boundary condition is not suitably relaxed. We show that for a wide range of integrands, including the…

We consider whether minimizers for total variation regularization of linear inverse problems belong to $L^\infty$ even if the measured data does not. We present a simple proof of boundedness of the minimizer for fixed regularization…

We give a simple proof of existence of solutions of the dispersion manage- ment and diffraction management equations for zero average dispersion, respectively diffraction. These solutions are found as maximizers of non-linear and non-local…

We study the non-autonomous variational problem: \begin{equation*} \inf_{(\phi,\theta)} \bigg\{\int_0^1 \bigg(\frac{k}{2}\phi'^2 + \frac{(\phi-\theta)^2}{2}-V(x,\theta)\bigg)\text{d}x\bigg\} \end{equation*} where $k>0$, $V$ is a bounded…

We study existence and qualitative properties of the minimizers for a Thomas--Fermi type energy functional defined by $$E_\alpha(\rho):=\frac{1}{q}\int_{\mathbb{R}^d}|\rho(x)|^q…

By variational methods, we prove the inequality: $$ \int_{\mathbb{R}} u''{}^2 dx-\int_{\mathbb{R}} u'' u^2 dx\geq I \int_{\mathbb{R}} u^4 dx\quad \forall u\in L^4({\mathbb{R}}) {such that} u''\in L^2({\mathbb{R}}) $$ for some constant $I\in…

We investigate, under a volume constraint and among sets contained in a Euclidean half-space, the minimization problem of an energy functional given by the sum of a capillarity perimeter, a nonlocal interaction term and a gravitational…

The paper studies the existence of minimizers for Rayleigh quotients $\mu_{\Omega}=\inf\frac{\int_\Omega|\nabla u|^2}{\int_\Omega V{|u|^2}} $, where $\Omega$ is a domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, and $V$ is a nonzero nonnegative function that may…

This contribution considers optimal control problems subject to nonlocal conservation laws -- those in which the velocity depends nonlocally (i.e., via a convolution) on the solution -- and the so-called singular limit. First, the existence…

In this paper we study $2$nd order $L^\infty$ variational problems, through seeking to minimise a supremal functional involving the Hessian of admissible functions as well as lower-order terms. Specifically, given a bounded domain…

We consider the problem of existence of constrained minimizers for the focusing mass-subcritical Half-Wave equation with a defocusing mass-subcritical perturbation. We show the existence of a critical mass such that minimizers do exist for…

We study existence and convergence properties of least-energy symmetric solutions (l.e.s.s.) to the pure critical problem \begin{equation*} (-\Delta)^su_s=|u_s|^{2^\star_s-2}u_s, \quad u_s\in D^s_0(\Omega),\quad 2^\star_s:=\frac{2N}{N-2s},…

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…

A variational model for describing the morphology of two-phase continua by allowing for the interplay between coherent and incoherent interfaces is introduced. Coherent interfaces are characterized by the microscopical arrangement of atoms…

We are concerned with $L^2$-constraint minimizers for the Kirchhoff functional $$ E_b(u)=\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u|^2\mathrm{d}x+\frac{b}{2}\left(\int_\Omega|\nabla u|^2\mathrm{d}x\right)^2+\int_\Omega…

We prove existence and uniqueness of minimizers for a family of energy functionals that arises in Elasticity and involves polyconvex integrands over a certain subset of displacement maps. This work extends previous results by Awi and Gangbo…
