Lipschitz regularity for orthotropic functionals with general growth
Mikyoung Lee, Jihoon Ok, Bianca Stroffolini
We study the local Lipschitz regularity of local minimizers for a class of degenerate orthotropic functionals with -growth, where is a general N-function. Unlike standard…
The formation of gradient-driven singular structures of codimension one and two in two-dimensions: The case study of ferronematics. Part~{II}: Refined structure of the energy-concentration set
Giacomo Canevari, Federico Luigi Dipasquale, Bianca Stroffolini
In this paper, we continue our study, started in~\cite{CDS1}, of a two-dimensional variational model for ferronematics -- composite materials formed by dispersing magnetic nanopart…
The formation of gradient-driven singular structures of codimension one and two in two-dimensions: The case study of ferronematics. Part~I: Energy estimates and compactness results
Giacomo Canevari, Federico Luigi Dipasquale, Bianca Stroffolini
We study a two-dimensional variational model for ferronematics -- composite materials formed by dispersing magnetic nanoparticles into a liquid crystal matrix. The model features t…
Liftings of Sobolev maps into closed Riemannian manifolds via double coverings and minimal connections relative to planar sets, with an application to ferronematics
Giacomo Canevari, Federico Luigi Dipasquale, Bianca Stroffolini
We consider Sobolev maps from a planar domain into a closed Riemannian manifold and their BV liftings via a double covering of the target. We establish a sharp lower bound on the j…
Variational Dual Solutions for Incompressible Fluids
Amit Acharya, Bianca Stroffolini, Arghir Zarnescu
We consider a construction proposed in \cite{acharyaQAM} that builds on the notion of weak solutions for incompressible fluids to provide a scheme that generates variationally a ce…
Partial regularity for parabolic systems of double phase type
Jihoon Ok, Giovanni Scilla, Bianca Stroffolini
We study partial regularity for nondegenerate parabolic systems of double phase type, where the growth function is given by , , with $\tfrac{2n}…
