We recall the definition of Minimizing Movements, suggested by E. De Giorgi, and we consider some applications to evolution problems. With regards to ordinary differential equations, we prove in particular a generalization of maximal slope curves theory to arbitrary metric spaces. On the other hand we present a unifying framework in which some recent conjectures about partial differential equations can be treated and solved. At the end we consider some open problems.

Parallelograms inscribed in a curve having a circle as π/2-isoptic

Jean-Marc Richard observed in [7] that maximal perimeter of a parallelogram inscribed in a given ellipse can be realized by a parallelogram with one vertex at any prescribed point of ellipse. Alain Connes and Don Zagier gave in [4] probably the most elementary proof of this property of ellipse. Another proof can be found in [1]. In this note we prove that closed, convex curves having circles as π/2-isoptics have the similar property.
