Regularity for almost minimizers in variational problems

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to contribute to the regularity theory in the calculus of variations, with a particular focus on almost minimizers. Specifically, we study (quasi-)convex variational functionals of the form

F(u, Ω) := ˆΩf(∇u) dx,

where Ω ⊂ Rn is a bounded open set, u is an R N -valued map defined on Ω, and the integrand f : R N×n → R is of p-growth with p ≥ 1 in the following sense: there exists a constant L > 0 such that

|f(z)| ≤ L(1 +...
