On the Euler-lagrange Equation for a Variational Problem

where g : R 7→ R strictly monotone increasing and differentiable, Ω open set with compact closure in R , and D convex closed subset of R. Under the assumption that ∇ū ∈ D a.e. in Ω, there is a unique solution u to (1.1) and we can actually give an explicit representation of u is terms of a Lax-type formula. The solution is clearly Lipschitz continuous because ∇u ∈ ∂D a.e. in Ω. The Euler-Lagran...

The Higher Integrability and the Validity of the Euler-Lagrange Equation for Solutions to Variational Problems

We prove higher integrability properties of solutions to the problem of minimizing ∫ Ω L(x, u(x),∇u(x))dx, where ξ → L(x, u, ξ) is a convex function satisfying some additional conditions. As an application, we prove the validity of the Euler–Lagrange equation for a class of functionals with growth faster than exponential.

On the Euler-lagrange Equation for a Variational Problem: the General Case

In this paper we study the existence of a solution in Lloc(Ω) to the Euler-Lagrange equation for the variational problem (0.1) inf ū+W 1,∞ 0 (Ω) Z Ω (1ID(∇u) + g(u))dx, with D convex closed subset of Rn with non empty interior. By means of a disintegration theorem, we next show that the Euler-Lagrange equation can be reduced to an ODE along characteristics, and we deduce that there exists a sol...

The Second Euler-Lagrange Equation of Variational Calculus on Time Scales

The fundamental problem of the calculus of variations on time scales concerns the minimization of a deltaintegral over all trajectories satisfying given boundary conditions. In this paper we prove the second Euler-Lagrange necessary optimality condition for optimal trajectories of variational problems on time scales. As an example of application of the main result, we give an alternative and si...

Invariant Euler-Lagrange Equations and the Invariant Variational Bicomplex

In this paper, we derive an explicit group-invariant formula for the EulerLagrange equations associated with an invariant variational problem. The method relies on a group-invariant version of the variational bicomplex induced by a general equivariant moving frame construction, and is of independent interest. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000): Primary: 53A55, 58J70, 58E40 Secondary: 35A...
