On the existence result for system of generalized strong vector quasiequilibrium problems.
We study the integral representation of relaxed functionals in the multi-dimensional calculus of variations, for integrands which are finite in a convex bounded set with nonempty interior and infinite elsewhere.
We consider periodic minimizers of the Lawrence–Doniach functional, which models highly anisotropic superconductors with layered structure, in the simultaneous limit as the layer thickness tends to zero and the Ginzburg–Landau parameter tends to infinity. In particular, we consider the properties of minimizers when the system is subjected to an external magnetic field applied either tangentially or normally to the superconducting planes. For normally applied fields, our results show that the resulting...
Si dimostra che il funzionale è semicontinuo inferiormente su , rispetto alla topologia indotta da , qualora l’integrando sia una funzione non-negativa, misurabile in , convessa in , limitata nell’intorno dei punti del tipo , e tale che la funzione sia semicontinua inferiormente su .
In this paper we study the lower semicontinuity problem for a supremal functional of the form with respect to the strong convergence in , furnishing a comparison with the analogous theory developed by Serrin for integrals. A sort of Mazur’s lemma for gradients of uniformly converging sequences is proved.

Motivated by the study of multidimensional control problems of Dieudonné-Rashevsky type, we raise the question how to understand to notion of quasiconvexity for a continuous function f with a convex body K instead of the whole space as the range of definition. In the present paper, we trace the consequences of an infinite extension of f outside K, and thus study quasiconvex functions which are allowed to take the value +∞. As an appropriate envelope, we introduce and investigate the lower semicontinuous...
Let f: ℝⁿ → ℝ be a nonconstant polynomial function. Using the information from the "curve of tangency" of f, we provide a method to determine the Łojasiewicz exponent at infinity of f. As a corollary, we give a computational criterion to decide if the Łojasiewicz exponent at infinity is finite or not. Then we obtain a formula to calculate the set of points at which the polynomial f is not proper. Moreover, a relation between the Łojasiewicz exponent at infinity of f and the problem of computing...
New contributions concerning the minimal displacement of points under mappings (defect of fixed point) are obtained.
