چکیده
The integral representation for the relaxation of a class of energy functionals where the admissible fields are constrained to remain on a C m-dimensional manifold M ⊂ R is obtained. If f : Rd×N → [0,∞) is a continuous function satisfying 0 ≤ f(ξ) ≤ C(1 + |ξ|), for C > 0, p ≥ 1, and for all ξ ∈ Rd×N , then F(u,Ω) : = inf {un} lim inf n→∞ Z Ω f(∇un) dx : un ⇀ u in W , un(x) ∈M a.e. x ∈ Ω, n ∈ N ff

Relaxation of isotropic functionals with linear growth defined on manifold constrained Sobolev mappings
In this paper we study the lower semicontinuous envelope with respect to the L-topology of a class of isotropic functionals with linear growth defined on mappings from the n-dimensional ball into RN that are constrained to take values into a smooth submanifold Y of RN . Let B be the unit ball in R and Y a smooth Riemannian manifold of dimension M ≥ 1, isometrically embedded in R for some N ≥ 2....
متن کاملExistence of solutions for variational inequalities on Riemannian manifolds
We establish the existence and uniqueness results for variational inequality problems on Riemannian manifolds and solve completely the open problem proposed in [21]. Also the relationships between the constrained optimization problem and the variational inequality problems as well as the projections on Riemannian manifolds are studied. Keyword: Variational inequalities; Riemannian manifold; Mon...
متن کاملThe variational discretizaton of the constrained higher-order Lagrange-Poincaré equations
In this paper we investigate a variational discretization for the class of mechanical systems in presence of symmetries described by the action of a Lie group which reduces the phase space to a (non-trivial) principal bundle. By introducing a discrete connection we are able to obtain the discrete constrained higher-order Lagrange-Poincar\'e equations. These equations describe the dynamics of a ...
متن کاملPROJECTED DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS AND OPTIMIZATION PROBLEMS
We establish a relationship between general constrained pseudoconvex optimization problems and globally projected dynamical systems. A corresponding novel neural network model, which is globally convergent and stable in the sense of Lyapunov, is proposed. Both theoretical and numerical approaches are considered. Numerical simulations for three constrained nonlinear optimization problems a...
متن کاملConstrained Steepest Descent in the 2{Wasserstein Metric
We study several constrained variational problem in the 2–Wasserstein metric for which the set of probability densities satisfying the constraint is not closed. For example, given a probability density F0 on IR and a time–step h > 0, we seek to minimize I(F ) = hS(F ) + W 2 2 (F0, F ) over all of the probability densities F that have the same mean and variance as F0, where S(F ) is the entropy ...
