We study variational problems involving nonlocal supremal functionals $L^\infty(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^m) \ni u\mapsto {\rm ess sup}_{(x,y)\in \Omega\times \Omega} W(u(x), u(y)),$ where $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is a bounded, open set and…
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions on the density $W:\mathbb R^d\times\mathbb R ^d\to\mathbb R$ in order to ensure the sequential weak* lower semicontinuity of the functional $J: W^{1,\infty}(I;\mathbb R^d)\to \mathbb R$,…
We provide relaxation for not lower semicontinuous supremal functionals of the type $W^{1,\infty}(\Omega;\mathbb R^d) \ni u \mapsto\supess_{ x \in \Omega}f(\nabla u(x))$ in the vectorial case, where $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^N$ is a…
Verifying lower-semicontinuity of integral functionals in the weak topology of Sobolev spaces is a central theme in the calculus of variations. For integral functionals with $p$-growth, quasiconvexity is a necessary condition for weak…
The paper is devoted to determine necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of solutions to the problem ${\rm inf}{{\rm ess sup}_{x \in \Omega} f(\nabla u(x)): u \in u_0 + W^{1,\infty}_0(\Omega)}$ when the supremand $f$ is not…
It is studied the lower semicontinuity of functionals of the type $\int_\Omega f(x,u,v, \nabla u)dx$ with respect to the $(W^{1,1}\times L^p)$-weak \ast topology. Moreover in absence of lower semicontinuity, it is also provided an integral…
In this paper, we present a new extension of the famous Serrin's lower semicontinuity theorem for the variational functional $\int_{\Omega}f(x,u,u')dx$,we prove its lower semicontinuity in $W_{loc}^{1,1}(\Omega)$ with respect to the strong…
In this paper we consider the following nonlocal autonomous evolution equation in a bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ \[ \partial_t u(x,t) =- h(x)u(x,t) + g \Big(\int_{\Omega} J(x,y)u(y,t)dy \Big) +f(x,u(x,t)) \] where $h\in…
Let $\Omega$ be an open set. We consider the supremal functional \[ \tag{1} \label{1} \ \ \ \ \ \ \mathrm{E}_\infty (u,\mathcal{O})\, :=\, \| \mathrm D u \|_{L^\infty( \mathcal{O} )}, \ \ \ \mathcal{O} \subseteq \Omega \text{ open}, \]…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for non-local functionals on vector-valued Lebesgue spaces to be weakly sequentially lower semi-continuous. Here a non-local functional shall have the form of a double integral of a density which…
We isolate a general condition, that we call "localization principle", on the integrand L:\MM\to[0,\infty], assumed to be continuous, under which W^{1,q}-quasiconvexity with q\in[1,\infty] is a sufficient condition for I(u)=\int_\Omega…
We consider isotropic non lower semicontinuous weighted perimeter functionals defined on partitions of domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Besides identifying a condition on the structure of the domain which ensures the existence of minimizing…
We state necessary and sufficient conditions for weak lower semicontinuity of $u\mapsto\int_\Omega h(x,u(x))\,d x$ where $|h(x,s)|\le C(1+|s|^p)$ is continuous and possesses a recession function, and $u\in L^p(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^m)$, $p>1$,…
We provide some lower semicontinuity results in the space of special functions of bounded deformation for energies of the type $$ %\int_\O {1/2}({\mathbb C} \E u, \E u)dx + \int_{J_{u}} \Theta(u^+, u^-, \nu_{u})d \H^{N-1} \enspace, \enspace…
We consider functionals of the form $$\mathcal{F}(u):=\int_\Omega\!F(x,u,\nabla u)\,\mathrm{d} x,$$ where $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ is open and bounded. The integrand $F\colon\Omega\times\mathbb{R}^N\times\mathbb{R}^{N\times…
The weak lower semicontinuity of the functional $$ F(u)=\int_{\Omega}f(x,u,\nabla u)\, dx$$ is a classical topic that was studied thoroughly. It was shown that if the function $f$ is continuous and convex in the last variable, the…
We prove the lower semicontinuity of functionals of the form \[ \int \limits_\Omega \! V(\alpha) \, \mathrm{d} |\mathrm{E} u| \, , \] with respect to the weak converge of $\alpha$ in $W^{1,\gamma}(\Omega)$, $\gamma > 1$, and the weak*…
Using a calibration method, we prove that, if w is a function which satisfies all Euler conditions for the Mumford-Shah functional on a two-dimensional domain, and the discontinuity set S of w is a regular curve connecting two boundary…
We characterize the lower-semicontinuity of nonlocal one-dimensional energies of the type \[{\rm ess}\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\sup_{(s,t) \in I\times I} h([u](s), [u](t)),\] where $I$ is an open and bounded interval in the real line, $u \in…
This paper is mainly concerned with the existence of extremals for the Adams inequality. We first establish an upper bound for the classical Adams functional along of all concentrated sequences in $W^{m,\frac{n}{m}}_{\mathcal{N}}(\Omega)$,…
