  • BV Functions on Convex Domains in Wiener Spaces
    Potential Analysis, 2015
    Co-Authors: Alessandra Lunardi, Michele Miranda, Diego Pallara
    Abstract:

    We study functions of bounded variation defined in an abstract Wiener space X , relating the variation of a function u on a Convex Open Set Ω ⊂ X ${\Omega }\subSet X$ to the behavior near t =0 of T ( t ) u , T ( t ) being the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck semigroup in Ω.

  • Ultraboundedness for parabolic equations in Convex domains without boundary conditions
    Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena, 2010
    Co-Authors: Giuseppe Da Prato, Alessandra Lunardi
    Abstract:

    Abstract We consider the operator A u = 1 2 Δ u − 〈 D U , D u 〉 , where U is a Convex real function defined in a Convex Open Set O ⊂ R N and lim | x | → ∞ U ( x ) = lim x → ∂ O U ( x ) = + ∞ . We prove that the associated Markov semigroup is ultrabounded with respect to the Gibbs measure e − 2 U ( x ) d x .

  • On a class of elliptic and parabolic equations in Convex domains without boundary conditions
    Discrete & Continuous Dynamical Systems - A, 2008
    Co-Authors: Giuseppe Da Prato, Alessandra Lunardi
    Abstract:

    We consider the operator $\A u = \frac{1}{2} \Delta u - \langle DU, Du\right$, where $U $ is a Convex real function defined in a Convex Open Set $\O \subSet \R^N$ and $\lim_{|x|\to \infty} U(x) = \lim_{ x \to \partial \O} U(x)$ $ =$ $ +\infty$. We study the realization of $\A $ in the spaces $C_{b}(\overline{\O})$, $C_{b}(\O)$ and $B_{b}(\O)$, and prove several properties of the associated Markov semigroup. In contrast with the case of bounded coefficients, elliptic equations and parabolic Cauchy problems such as (3) and (4) below are uniquely solvable in reasonable classes of functions, without imposing any boundary condition. We prove that the associated semigroup coincides with the transition semigroup of a stochastic variational inequality on $C_{b}(\overline{\O})$.

  • On a class of self-adjoint elliptic operators in L 2 spaces with respect to invariant measures
    Journal of Differential Equations, 2007
    Co-Authors: Giuseppe Da Prato, Alessandra Lunardi
    Abstract:

    Abstract We consider the operator A u = Δ u / 2 − 〈 D U , D u 〉 , where U is a Convex real function defined in a Convex Open Set Ω ⊂ R N and lim | x | → ∞ U ( x ) = + ∞ . Setting μ ( d x ) = exp ( − 2 U ( x ) ) d x , we prove that the realization of A in L 2 ( Ω , μ ) with domain { u ∈ H 2 ( Ω , μ ) : 〈 D U , D u 〉 ∈ L 2 ( Ω , μ ) , ∂ u / ∂ n = 0 at Γ 1 } , is a self-adjoint dissipative operator. Here Γ 1 is the Set of points y in the boundary of Ω such that lim sup x → y U ( x ) + ∞ . Then we discuss several properties of A and of the measure μ , including Poincare and log-Sobolev inequalities in H 1 ( Ω , μ ) .

  • Quantitative Stability for Anisotropic Nearly Umbilical Hypersurfaces
    The Journal of Geometric Analysis, 2018
    Co-Authors: Antonio De Rosa, Stefano Gioffrè
    Abstract:

    We prove qualitative and quantitative stability of the following rigidity theorem: the only anisotropic totally umbilical closed hypersurface is the Wulff shape. Consider $$n \ge 2$$ , $$p\in (1, \, +\infty )$$ and $$\Sigma $$ an n-dimensional, closed hypersurface in $$\mathbb {R}^{n+1}$$ , which is the boundary of a Convex, Open Set. We show that if the $$L^p$$ -norm of the trace-free part of the anisotropic second fundamental form is small, then $$\Sigma $$ must be $$W^{2, \, p}$$ -close to the Wulff shape, with a quantitative estimate.

    Abstract:

    We prove a qualitative and a quantitative stability of the following rigidity theorem: an anisotropic totally umbilical closed hypersurface is the Wulff shape. Consider $n \geq 2$, $p\in (1, \, +\infty)$ and $\Sigma$ an $n$-dimensional, closed hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, boundary of a Convex, Open Set. We show that if the $L^p$ norm of the trace-free part of the anisotropic second fundamental form is small, then $\Sigma$ must be $W^{2, \, p}$-close to the Wulff shape, with a quantitative estimate.

  • A $W^{2, \, p}$-estimate for nearly umbilical hypersurfaces
    arXiv: Differential Geometry, 2016
    Co-Authors: Stefano Gioffrè
    Abstract:

    Let $n \ge 2$, $p \in (1, \, +\infty)$ be given and let $\Sigma$ be a $n$-dimensional, closed hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. Denote by $A$ its second fundamental form, and by $\mathring{A}$ the tensor $A - \frac{1}{n} A^i_i g$ where $g = \delta |_{\Sigma}$.Assuming that $\Sigma$ is the boundary of a Convex, Open Set we prove that if the $L^p$-norm of $\mathring{A}$ is small, then $\Sigma$ must be $W^{2, \, p}$-close to a sphere, with a quantitative estimate.

  • The visible part of plane self-similar Sets
    Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2012
    Co-Authors: Kenneth Falconer, Jonathan M. Fraser
    Abstract:

    Given a compact subSet F of R2, the visible part VθF of F from direction θ is the Set of x in F such that the half-line from x in direction θ intersects F only at x. It is suggested that if dimH F ≥ 1, then dimH VθF = 1 for almost all θ, where dimH denotes Hausdorff dimension. We confirm this when F is a self-similar Set satisfying the Convex Open Set condition and such that the orthogonal projection of F onto every line is an interval. In particular the underlying similarities may involve arbitrary rotations and F need not be connected.

  • The visible part of plane self-similar Sets
    arXiv: Metric Geometry, 2010
    Co-Authors: Kenneth Falconer, Jonathan M. Fraser
    Abstract:

    Given a compact subSet $F$ of $\mathbb{R}^2$, the visible part $V_\theta F$ of $F$ from direction $\theta$ is the Set of $x$ in $F$ such that the half-line from $x$ in direction $\theta$ intersects $F$ only at $x$. It is suggested that if $\dim_H F \geq 1$ then $\dim_H V_\theta F = 1$ for almost all $\theta$, where $\dim_H$ denotes Hausdorff dimension. We confirm this when $F$ is a self-similar Set satisfying the Convex Open Set condition and such that the orthogonal projection of $F$ onto every line is an interval. In particular the underlying similarities may involve arbitrary rotations and $F$ need not be connected.

    We consider the operator $\A u = \frac{1}{2} \Delta u - \langle DU, Du\right$, where $U $ is a Convex real function defined in a Convex Open Set $\O \subSet \R^N$ and $\lim_{|x|\to \infty} U(x) = \lim_{ x \to \partial \O} U(x)$ $ =$ $ +\infty$. We study the realization of $\A $ in the spaces $C_{b}(\overline{\O})$, $C_{b}(\O)$ and $B_{b}(\O)$, and prove several properties of the associated Markov semigroup. In contrast with the case of bounded coefficients, elliptic equations and parabolic Cauchy problems such as (3) and (4) below are uniquely solvable in reasonable classes of functions, without imposing any boundary condition. We prove that the associated semigroup coincides with the transition semigroup of a stochastic variational inequality on $C_{b}(\overline{\O})$.

Setting μ ( d x ) = exp ( − 2 U ( x ) ) d x , we prove that the realization of A in L 2 ( Ω , μ ) with domain { u ∈ H 2 ( Ω , μ ) : 〈 D U , D u 〉 ∈ L 2 ( Ω , μ ) , ∂ u / ∂ n = 0 at Γ 1 } , is a self-adjoint dissipative operator. Here Γ 1 is the Set of points y in the boundary of Ω such that lim sup x → y U ( x ) + ∞ . Then we discuss several properties of A and of the measure μ , including Poincare and log-Sobolev inequalities in H 1 ( Ω , μ ) .

  • elliptic operators with unbounded drift coefficients and neumann boundary condition
    Journal of Differential Equations, 2004
    Co-Authors: Giuseppe Da Prato, Alessandra Lunardi
    Abstract:

    Abstract We study the realization AN of the operator A = 1 2 Δ−〈DU,D·〉 in L 2 (Ω,μ) with Neumann boundary condition, where Ω is a possibly unbounded Convex Open Set in R N , U is a Convex unbounded function, DU(x) is the element with minimal norm in the subdifferential of U at x, and μ(dx)=c exp (−2U(x)) dx is a probability measure, infinitesimally invariant for A . We show that AN is a dissipative self-adjoint operator in L 2 (Ω,μ) . Log-Sobolev and Poincare inequalities allow then to study smoothing properties and asymptotic behavior of the semigroup generated by AN.
