On the Support of Minimizers of Causal Variational Principles
A class of causal variational principles on a compact manifold is introduced and analyzed both numerically and analytically. It is proved under general assumptions that the support of a minimizing measure is either completely timelike, or it is singular in the sense that its interior is empty. In the examples of the circle, the sphere and certain flag manifolds, the general results are suppleme...
متن کاملOn the structure of minimizers of causal variational principles in the non-compact and equivariant settings
We derive the Euler-Lagrange equations for minimizers of causal variational principles in the non-compact setting with constraints, possibly prescribing symmetries. Considering first variations, we show that the minimizing measure is supported on the intersection of a hyperplane with a level set of a function which is homogeneous of degree two. Moreover, we perform second variations to obtain t...
متن کاملLipschitz regularity for constrained local minimizers of convex variational integrals with a wide range of anisotropy
We establish interior gradient bounds for functions u ∈ W 1 1,loc (Ω) which locally minimize the variational integral J[u, Ω] = ∫ Ω h (|∇u|) dx under the side condition u ≥ Ψ a.e. on Ω with obstacle Ψ being locally Lipschitz. Here h denotes a rather general N-function allowing (p, q)-ellipticity with arbitrary exponents 1 < p ≤ q < ∞. Our arguments are based on ideas developed in [BFM] combined...
متن کاملInterior gradient regularity for BV minimizers of singular variational problems
We consider a class of vectorial integrals with linear growth, where, as a key feature, some degenerate/singular behavior is allowed. For generalized minimizers of these integrals in BV, we establish interior gradient regularity and — as a consequence — uniqueness up to constants. In particular, these results apply, for 1 < p < 2, to the singular model integrals ∫ Ω (1 + |∇w(x)|) 1 p dx . MSC (...
متن کاملA Variational Principle in Discrete Space-Time – Existence of Minimizers
We formulate a variational principle for a collection of projectors in an indefinite inner product space. The existence of minimizers is proved in various situations. In a recent book it was proposed to formulate physics with a new variational principle in space-time [2]. In the present paper we construct minimizers of this variational principle. In order to make the presentation self-contained...
