A comparison principle for minimizers
نویسندگان
چکیده
We give some conditions that ensure the validity of a Comparison principle for the minimizers of integral functionals, without assuming the validity of the Euler–Lagrange equation. We deduce a weak maximum principle for (possibly) degenerate elliptic equations and, together with a generalization of the bounded slope condition, the Lipschitz continuity of minimizers. To prove the main theorem we give a result on the existence of a representative of a given Sobolev function that is absolutely continuous along the trajectories of a suitable autonomous system. 2000 Académie des sciences/Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS Un principe de comparaison pour les minima Résumé. Nous donnons des conditions qui assurent la validité d’un principe de comparaison pour les minimums d’une fonctionnelle intégrale qui ne satisfont pas nécessairement à l’équation d’Euler–Lagrange. Nous en déduisons un principe de maximum faible pour les équations elliptiques (éventuellement) dégénerées et, en généralisant la condition de la pente bornée, la Lipschitz continuité des minimums. La preuve du théorème principal se base sur l’éxistence d’un représentant d’une fonction de Sobolev donnée qui est absolument continu sur les trajectoires d’un système autonome convenable. 2000 Académie des sciences/Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SAS Version française abrégée Nous fixons un ouvert borné Ω de R. La fonction L(x, z, p) est définie dans Ω× R×R et ` est une fonction dans W(Ω), q > 1. La fonction ū est dans W(Ω) et on pose W ū (Ω) = ū+ W 0 (Ω). Dans cette partie nous nous référons aux hypothèses A, A′, B et D du texte anglais qui suit. THÉORÈME PRINCIPAL 1 ([4]). – On suppose que (L, `) satisfait à l’hypothèse B. Soit w un minimum de

متن کاملAn Inhomogeneous Uncertainty Principle for Digital Low-Pass Filters
This article introduces an inhomogeneous uncertainty principle for digital lowpass filters. The measure for uncertainty is a product of two factors evaluating the frequency selectivity in comparison with the ideal filter and the effective length of the filter in the digital domain, respectively. We derive a sharp lower bound for this product in the class of filters with so-called finite effecti...
متن کاملRelative Pareto minimizers for multiobjective problems: existence and optimality conditions
In this paper we introduce and study enhanced notions of relative Pareto minimizers to constrained multiobjective problems that are defined via several kinds of relative interiors of ordering cones and occupy intermediate positions between the classical notions of Pareto and weak Pareto efficiency /minimality. Using advanced tools of variational analysis and generalized differentiation, we esta...

متن کاملVariational principle for general diffusion problems
We employ the Monge-Kantorovich mass transfer theory to study existence of solutions for a large class of parabolic partial differential equations. We deal with non-homogeneous nonlinear diffusion problems (of Fokker-Planck type) with time dependent coefficients. This work greatly extends the applicability of known techniques based on constructing weak solutions by approximation with time-inter...
