Partial Regularity For Anisotropic Functionals of Higher Order

چکیده
Higher order variational functionals, emerging in the study of problems from materials science and engineering, have attracted a great deal of attention in last few years (e.g. [4], see [5]). In particular, the regularity of minimizers of such functionals has been studied very recently. In [15] and [16] the partial Ck,α regularity has been established for quasiconvex integrals with a p-power growth with respect to the gradient and in [3] for convex integrals having subquadratic nonstandard growth condition, only in dimension 2. The aim of this paper is to establish the partial regularity of minimizers of integral functionals of the type

Regularity of solutions to higher-order integrals of the calculus of variations
We obtain new regularity conditions for problems of calculus of variations with higher-order derivatives. As a corollary, we get non-occurrence of the Lavrentiev phenomenon. Our main regularity result asserts that autonomous integral functionals with a Lagrangian having coercive partial derivatives with respect to the higher-order derivatives admit only minimizers with essentially bounded deriv...
متن کاملSobolev and Lipschitz regularity for local minimizers of widely degenerate anisotropic functionals
We prove higher differentiability of bounded local minimizers to some widely degenerate functionals, verifying superquadratic anisotropic growth conditions. In the two dimensional case, we prove that local minimizers to a model functional are locally Lipschitz continuous functions, without any restriction on the anisotropy.
متن کاملPartial Regularity For Higher Order Variational Problems Under Anisotropic Growth Conditions
We prove a partial regularity result for local minimizers u : Rn ⊃ Ω → RM of the variational integral J(u,Ω) = ∫ Ω f(∇ku) dx, where k is any integer and f is a strictly convex integrand of anisotropic (p, q)–growth with exponents satisfying the condition q < p(1 + 2 n). This is some extension of the regularity theorem obtained in [BF2] for the case n = 2.
متن کاملRegularity under Sharp Anisotropic General Growth Conditions
We prove boundedness of minimizers of energy-functionals, for instance of the anisotropic type (1.1) below, under sharp assumptions on the exponents pi in terms of p ∗: the Sobolev conjugate exponent of p; i.e., p∗ = np n−p , 1 p = 1 n Pn i=1 1 pi . As a consequence, by mean of regularity results due to Lieberman [21], we obtain the local Lipschitz-continuity of minimizers under sharp assumptio...
متن کاملElliptic Regularity Theory Applied to Time Harmonic Anisotropic Maxwell's Equations with Less than Lipschitz Complex Coefficients
Elliptic regularity theory applied to time harmonic anisotropic Maxwell's equations with less than Lipschitz complex coefficients The focus of this paper is the study of the regularity properties of the time harmonic Maxwell's equations with anisotropic complex coefficients, in a bounded domain with C 2,1 boundary. We assume that at least one of the material parameters is W 1,3+δ for some δ > 0...
