On the ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals on isotropic convex bodies

G. Paouris (2005)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

The slicing problem can be reduced to the study of isotropic convex bodies K with $d i a m (K) \leq c \sqrt n L_{K}$ , where $L_{K}$ is the isotropic constant. We study the ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals on this class of bodies. It is proved that ${| | ⟨ \cdot, θ ⟩ | |}_{ψ ₂} \leq C L_{K}$ for all θ in a subset U of $S^{n - 1}$ with measure σ(U) ≥ 1 - exp(-c√n). However, there exist isotropic convex bodies K with uniformly bounded geometric distance from the Euclidean ball, such that $m a x_{θ \in S^{n - 1}} {| | ⟨ \cdot, θ ⟩ | |}_{ψ ₂} \geq c ∜ n L_{K}$ . In a different direction, we show that good average ψ₂-behaviour of linear functionals...

Gradient theory for plasticity via homogenization of discrete dislocations

Adriana Garroni, Giovanni Leoni, Marcello Ponsiglione (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We deduce a macroscopic strain gradient theory for plasticity from a model of discrete dislocations. We restrict our analysis to the case of a cylindrical symmetry for the crystal under study, so that the mathematical formulation will involve a two-dimensional variational problem. The dislocations are introduced as point topological defects of the strain fields, for which we compute the elastic energy stored outside the so-called core region. We show that the $Γ$ -limit of this energy (suitably...

Poincaré Inequalities and Moment Maps

Bo’az Klartag (2013)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

We discuss a method for obtaining Poincaré-type inequalities on arbitrary convex bodies in $ℝ^{n}$ . Our technique involves a dual version of Bochner’s formula and a certain moment map, and it also applies to some non-convex sets. In particular, we generalize the central limit theorem for convex bodies to a class of non-convex domains, including the unit balls of $ℓ_{p}$ -spaces in $ℝ^{n}$ for $0 < p < 1$ .

Convex integration with constraints and applications to phase transitions and partial differential equations

Stefan Müller, Vladimír Šverák (1999)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We study solutions of first order partial differential relations $D u \in K$ , where $u : Ω \subset ℝ^{n} \to ℝ^{m}$ is a Lipschitz map and $K$ is a bounded set in $m \times n$ matrices, and extend Gromov’s theory of convex integration in two ways. First, we allow for additional constraints on the minors of $D u$ and second we replace Gromov’s $P$ −convex hull by the (functional) rank-one convex hull. The latter can be much larger than the former and this has important consequences for the existence of ‘wild’ solutions to elliptic systems. Our...

Product property for capacities in $ℂ^{N}$

Mirosław Baran, Leokadia Bialas-Ciez (2012)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Similarity:

The paper deals with logarithmic capacities, an important tool in pluripotential theory. We show that a class of capacities, which contains the L-capacity, has the following product property: $C_{ν} (E ₁ \times E ₂) = m i n (C_{ν ₁} (E ₁), C_{ν ₂} (E ₂))$ , where $E_{j}$ and $ν_{j}$ are respectively a compact set and a norm in $ℂ^{N_{j}}$ (j = 1,2), and ν is a norm in $ℂ^{N ₁ + N ₂}$ , ν = ν₁⊕ₚ ν₂ with some 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞. For a convex subset E of $ℂ^{N}$ , denote by C(E) the standard L-capacity and by $ω_{E}$ the minimal width of E, that is, the minimal Euclidean distance between two supporting hyperplanes...

Operations between sets in geometry

Richard J. Gardner, Daniel Hug, Wolfgang Weil (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

An investigation is launched into the fundamental characteristics of operations on and between sets, with a focus on compact convex sets and star sets (compact sets star-shaped with respect to the origin) in $n$ -dimensional Euclidean space $ℝ^{n}$ . It is proved that if $n \geq 2$ , with three trivial exceptions, an operation between origin-symmetric compact convex sets is continuous in the Hausdorff metric, $G L (n)$ covariant, and associative if and only if it is $L_{p}$ addition for some $1 \leq p \leq \infty$ . It is also demonstrated...

Pairs of convex bodies in a hyperspace over a Minkowski two-dimensional space joined by a unique metric segment

Agnieszka Bogdewicz, Jerzy Grzybowski (2009)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Let $(ℝ, | | \cdot | |_{)}$ be a Minkowski space with a unit ball and let $ϱ_{H}^{}$ be the Hausdorff metric induced by ${| | \cdot | |}_{}$ in the hyperspace of convex bodies (nonempty, compact, convex subsets of ℝ). R. Schneider [RSP] characterized pairs of elements of which can be joined by unique metric segments with respect to $ϱ_{H}^{B ⁿ}$ for the Euclidean unit ball Bⁿ. We extend Schneider’s theorem to the hyperspace $(², ϱ_{H}^{})$ over any two-dimensional Minkowski space.

Let $C o n v_{F} (ℝ ⁿ)$ be the space of all non-empty closed convex sets in Euclidean space ℝ ⁿ endowed with the Fell topology. We prove that $C o n v_{F} (ℝ ⁿ) \approx ℝ ⁿ \times Q$ for every n > 1 whereas $C o n v_{F} (ℝ) \approx ℝ \times$ .

Symmetry of minimizers with a level surface parallel to the boundary

Giulio Ciraolo, Rolando Magnanini, Shigeru Sakaguchi (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider the functional $ℐ_{Ω} (v) = \int_{Ω} [f (| D v |) - v] d x,$ where $Ω$ is a bounded domain and $f$ is a convex function. Under general assumptions on $f$ , Crasta [Cr1] has shown that if $ℐ_{Ω}$ admits a minimizer in $W_{0}^{1, 1} (Ω)$ depending only on the distance from the boundary of $Ω$ , then $Ω$ must be a ball. With some restrictions on $f$ , we prove that spherical symmetry can be obtained only by assuming that the minimizer has one level surface parallel to the boundary (i.e. it has only a level surface in common with the distance). We then discuss...

Se il problema di minimo $(\mathcal{P}_{\infty})$ è il limite, in senso variazionale, di una successione di problemi di minimo con ostacoli del tipo ${}\min_{u\geq\psi_{h}}\int_{A}\left[f_{h}(x,u,Du)+b(x,u)\right]dx,$ allora $(\mathcal{P}_{\infty})$ può essere scritto nella forma ${}\min_{u}\Big{\{}\int_{A}\left[f_{\infty}(x,u,Du)+b(x,u)\right]dx+\int_{A}g_{% \infty}(x,\tilde{u}(x))\,d\lambda_{\infty}(x)\Big{\}}$ dove $\tilde{u}$ è un conveniente rappresentante di $u$ e $\lambda_{\infty}$ è una misura non negativa.

A symmetry problem in the calculus of variations

Graziano Crasta (2006)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We consider the integral functional $J (u) = \int_{Ω} [f (| D u |) - u] d x$ , $u \in W_{0}^{1, 1} (Ω)$ , where $Ω \subset ℝ^{n}$ , $n \geq 2$ , is a nonempty bounded connected open subset of $ℝ^{n}$ with smooth boundary, and $ℝ ∋ s \mapsto f (| s |)$ is a convex, differentiable function. We prove that if $J$ admits a minimizer in $W_{0}^{1, 1} (Ω)$ depending only on the distance from the boundary of $Ω$ , then $Ω$ must be a ball.

On a bifurcation problem arising in cholesteric liquid crystal theory

Carlo Greco (2017)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

Similarity:

In a cholesteric liquid crystal the director field $n (x, y, z)$ tends to form a right-angle helicoid around a twist axis in order to minimize the internal energy; however, a fixed alignment of the director field at the boundary (strong anchoring) can give rise to distorted configurations of the director field, as oblique helicoid, in order to save energy. The transition to this distorted configurations depend on the boundary conditions and on the geometry of the liquid crystal, and it is known...

On the condition of Λ-convexity in some problems of weak continuity and weak lower semicontinuity

Agnieszka Kałamajska (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We study the functional $I_{f} (u) = \int_{Ω} f (u (x)) d x$ , where u=(u₁, ..., uₘ) and each $u_{j}$ is constant along some subspace $W_{j}$ of ℝⁿ. We show that if intersections of the $W_{j}$ ’s satisfy a certain condition then $I_{f}$ is weakly lower semicontinuous if and only if f is Λ-convex (see Definition 1.1 and Theorem 1.1). We also give a necessary and sufficient condition on ${W_{j}}_{j = 1, . . ., m}$ to have the equivalence: $I_{f}$ is weakly continuous if and only if f is Λ-affine.

Upper bounds for singular perturbation problems involving gradient fields

Arkady Poliakovsky (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We prove an upper bound for the Aviles–Giga problem, which involves the minimization of the energy $E_{ε} (v) = ε \int_{Ω} | \nabla^{2} {v |}^{2} d x + ε^{- 1} \int_{Ω} {(1 - | \nabla v |}^{2})^{2} d x$ over $v \in H^{2} (Ω)$ , where $ε > 0$ is a small parameter. Given $v \in W^{1, \infty} (Ω)$ such that $\nabla v \in B V$ and $| \nabla v | = 1$ a.e., we construct a family ${v_{ε}}$ satisfying: $v_{ε} \to v$ in $W^{1, p} (Ω)$ and $E_{ε} (v_{ε}) \to \frac{1}{3} \int_{J_{\nabla v}} {| \nabla^{+} v - \nabla^{-} v |}^{3} d ℋ^{N - 1}$ as $ε$ goes to 0.
