A nonlinear model for inextensible rods as a low energy Γ-limit of three-dimensional nonlinear elasticity
In this paper, an optimal vibration control problem for a nonlinear plate is considered. In order to obtain the optimal control function, wellposedness and controllability of the nonlinear system is investigated. The performance index functional of the system, to be minimized by minimum level of control, is chosen as the sum of the quadratic 10 functional of the displacement. The velocity of the plate and quadratic functional of the control function is added to the performance index functional as...
For a one-dimensional nonlocal nonconvex singular perturbation problem with a noncoercive periodic well potential, we prove a -convergence theorem and show compactness up to translation in all and the optimal Orlicz space for sequences of bounded energy. This generalizes work of Alberti, Bouchitté and Seppecher (1994) for the coercive two-well case. The theorem has applications to a certain thin-film limit of the micromagnetic energy.

In this paper we consider Neumann noncoercive hemivariational inequalities, focusing on nontrivial solutions. We use the critical point theory for locally Lipschitz functionals.
The paper concerns a two-level hierarchical game, where the players on each level behave noncooperatively. In this way one can model eg an oligopolistic market with several large and several small firms. We derive two types of necessary conditions for a solution of this game and discuss briefly the possibilities of its computation.
The first motivation for this note is to obtain a general version of the following result: let E be a Banach space and f : E → R be a differentiable function, bounded below and satisfying the Palais-Smale condition; then, f is coercive, i.e., f(x) goes to infinity as ||x|| goes to infinity. In recent years, many variants and extensions of this result appeared, see [3], [5], [6], [9], [14], [18], [19] and the references therein. A general result of this type was given in [3, Theorem 5.1] for a lower...
We characterize generalized extreme points of compact convex sets. In particular, we show that if the polyconvex hull is convex in , , then it is constructed from polyconvex extreme points via sequential lamination. Further, we give theorems ensuring equality of the quasiconvex (polyconvex) and the rank-1 convex envelopes of a lower semicontinuous function without explicit convexity assumptions on the quasiconvex (polyconvex) envelope.
The existence of solutions to a scalar Minty variational inequality of differential type is usually related to monotonicity property of the primitive function. On the other hand, solutions of the variational inequality are global minimizers for the primitive function. The present paper generalizes these results to vector variational inequalities putting the Increasing Along Rays (IAR) property into the center of the discussion. To achieve that infinite elements in the image space are introduced....

We describe a new link between Perelman’s monotonicity formula for the reduced volume and ideas from optimal transport theory.
