Shape optimisation of the first solenoidal Maxwell eigenvalue

Antoine Henrot, Idriss Mazari-Fouquer, Yannick Privat +1

We study the minimisation of the first solenoidal Maxwell eigenvalue in perfectly conducting cavities through the scale-invariant functional $J_{\mathrm{Per…

A finite element approach for minimizing line and surface energies arising in the study of singularities in liquid crystals

Dominik Stantejsky

Motivated by a problem originating in the study of defect structures in nematic liquid crystals, we describe and study a numerical algorithm for the resolution of a Plateau-like pr…

A priori estimates and compactness for anisotropic Ginzburg-Landau minimizers with tangential anchoring

Lia Bronsard, Andrew Colinet, Dominik Stantejsky +1

We consider minimizers of the Ginzburg-Landau energy with quadratic divergence or curl penalization on a simply-connected two-dimensional domain . On the boundar…

Minimizing Harmonic Maps on the Unit Ball with Tangential Anchoring

Lia Bronsard, Andrew Colinet, Dominik Stantejsky

Since the seminal work of Schoen-Uhlenbeck, many authors have studied properties of harmonic maps satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions. In this article, we instead investigate…

Convergence to line and surface energies in nematic liquid crystal colloids with external magnetic field

François Alouges, Antonin Chambolle, Dominik Stantejsky

We use the Landau-de Gennes energy to describe a particle immersed into nematic liquid crystals with a constant applied magnetic field. We derive a limit energy in a regime where b…
