We study the parabolic free boundary problem of obstacle type $$ \lap u-\frac{\partial u}{\partial t}= f\chi_{{u\ne 0}}. $$ Under the condition that $f=Hv$ for some function $v$ with bounded second order spatial derivatives and bounded…

We study fundamental limits of first-order stochastic optimization in a range of nonconvex settings, including L-smooth functions satisfying Quasar-Convexity (QC), Quadratic Growth (QG), and Restricted Secant Inequalities (RSI). While the…

Bilevel optimization minimizes an objective function, defined by an upper-level problem whose feasible region is the solution of a lower-level problem. We study the oracle complexity of finding an $\epsilon$-stationary point with…

We consider a stochastic version of the proximal point algorithm for optimization problems posed on a Hilbert space. A typical application of this is supervised learning. While the method is not new, it has not been extensively analyzed in…

This paper studies minimax optimization problems $\min_x \max_y f(x,y)$, where $f(x,y)$ is $m_x$-strongly convex with respect to $x$, $m_y$-strongly concave with respect to $y$ and $(L_x,L_{xy},L_y)$-smooth. Zhang et al. provided the…

We develop a weak adversarial approach to solving obstacle problems using neural networks. By employing (generalised) regularised gap functions and their properties we rewrite the obstacle problem (which is an elliptic variational…

We study certain obstacle type problems involving standard and nonlocal minimal surfaces. We obtain optimal regularity of the solution and a characterization of the free boundary.

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be the family of compact convex subsets $S$ of the hemisphere in $\rn$ with the property that $S$ contains its dual $S^*;$ let $u\in S^*$, and let $ \Phi(S,u)=\frac{2}{\omega_n}\int_{S}\ < \theta, u \ > \,\,…

Based on the ideas of arXiv:1710.06612, we consider the problem of minimization of the Holder-continuous non-smooth functional $f$ with non-positive convex (generally, non-smooth) Lipschitz-continuous functional constraint. We propose some…

We study minimizers of the functional $$ \int_{B_1^+}|\nabla u|^2 x_n^a\,d x +2\int_{B_1'} (\lambda_+ u^++\lambda_- u^-)\,d x', $$ for $a\in(-1,1)$. The problem arises in connection with heat flow with control on the boundary. It can also…

We consider the problem of minimising the $L^\infty$ norm of a function of the hessian over a class of maps, subject to a mass constraint involving the $L^\infty$ norm of a function of the gradient and the map itself. We assume zeroth and…

Let $ \Omega \subsetneq \mathbf{R}^n\,(n\geq 2)$ be an unbounded convex domain. We study the minimal surface equation in $\Omega$ with boundary value given by the sum of a linear function and a bounded uniformly continuous function in $…

We prove an existence theorem for the sliding boundary variant of the Plateau problem for $2$-dimensional sets in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The simplest case of sufficient condition is when $n=3$ and the boundary $\Gamma$ is a finite disjoint union…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{2}$ be a bounded, Lipschitz domain. We consider bounded, weak solutions ($u\in W^{1, 2}\cap L^{\infty}(\Omega;\mathbb{R}^N)$) of the vector-valued, Euler-Lagrange system: \text{div } \big( A(x, u)Du\big)=g(x,…

This is the first of two papers which study asymptotic behavior of minimal energy solutions to the fractional Lane-Emden system in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega$ \[(-\Delta)^s u = v^p, \quad (-\Delta)^s v = u^q \text{ in } \Omega \quad…

We consider the following problem: minimize the functional $\int_\Omega f(\nabla u(x))\, dx$ in the class of concave functions $u: \Omega \to [0,M]$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ is a convex body and $M > 0$. If $f(x) = 1/(1 +…

We introduce a novel monotone discretization method for addressing obstacle problems involving the integral fractional Laplacian with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions over bounded Lipschitz domains. This problem is prevalent in…

We consider minimizers of \[ F(\lambda_1(\Omega),\ldots,\lambda_N(\Omega)) + |\Omega|, \] where $F$ is a function nondecreasing in each parameter, and $\lambda_k(\Omega)$ is the $k$-th Dirichlet eigenvalue of $\Omega$. This includes, in…

We consider shape optimization problems with internal inclusion constraints, of the form $$\min\big\{J(\Omega)\ :\ \Dr\subset\Omega\subset\R^d,\ |\Omega|=m\big\},$$ where the set $\Dr$ is fixed, possibly unbounded, and $J$ depends on…

For $0<s<1$, we consider the nonlocal equation $(-\Delta)^s u = f$ over a Reifenberg flat domain $\Omega$ with $f \in C({\overline{\Omega}})$ and null Dirichlet exterior condition. Given $\alpha \in (0,s)$, we prove that weak solutions are…
