On embedded minimal disks in convex bodies
In this paper we describe some recent progress on the theory of sets of finite perimeter, currents, and rectifiability in metric spaces. We discuss the relation between intrinsic and extrinsic theories for rectifiability
We consider the question raised in [1] of whether relaxed energy densities involving both bulk and surface energies can be written as a sum of two functions, one depending on the net gradient of admissible functions, and the other on net singular part. We show that, in general, they cannot. In particular, if the bulk density is quasiconvex but not convex, there exists a convex and homogeneous of degree 1 function of the jump such that there is no such representation.
In the paper the problem of constructing an optimal urban transportation network in a city with given densities of population and of workplaces is studied. The network is modeled by a closed connected set of assigned length, while the optimality condition consists in minimizing the Monge-Kantorovich functional representing the total transportation cost. The cost of trasporting a unit mass between two points is assumed to be proportional to the distance between them when the transportation is carried...
This paper is concerned with the numerical approximation of mean curvature flow t → Ω(t) satisfying an additional inclusion-exclusion constraint Ω1 ⊂ Ω(t) ⊂ Ω2. Classical phase field model to approximate these evolving interfaces consists in solving the Allen-Cahn equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In this work, we introduce a new phase field model, which can be viewed as an Allen Cahn equation with a penalized double well potential. We first justify this method by a Γ-convergence result...

In this paper, we prove that integral -varifolds in codimension 1 with , , have quadratic tilt-excess decay for -almost all , and a strong maximum principle which states that these varifolds cannot be touched by smooth manifolds whose mean curvature is given by the weak mean curvature , unless the smooth manifold is locally contained in the support of .
