We consider the obstacle problem{minimize????????I(u)=?OG(?u)dx??among functions??u:O?Rsuch?that???????u|?O=0??and??u=F??a.e.for a given functionF?C2(O¯),F|?O<0and a bounded Lipschitz domainOinRn. The growth properties of the convex integrandGare described in terms of aN-functionA:[0,8)?[0,8)withlimt?8¯A(t)t-2<8. Ifn=3, we prove, under certain assumptions onG,C1,8-partial regularity for the solution to the above obstacle problem. For the special case whereA(t)=tln(1+t)we obtainC1,a-partial regularity whenn=4. One of the main features of the paper is that we do not require any power growth ofG.

We consider strictly quasiconvex integralsin the multi-dimensional calculus of variations. For the C2-integrand f : ℝNn → ℝ we impose (p, q)-growth conditionswith γ, Γ > 0 and 1 < p ≤ q < min {p + 1/n, p(2n − 1)/(2n − 2)}. Under these assumptions we prove partial C1, αloc-regularity for strong local minimizers of F and the associated relaxed functional F.

AbstractWe consider autonomous integral functionals of the form $$\begin{aligned} {\mathcal {F}}[u]:=\int _\varOmega f(D u)\,dx \quad \text{ where } u:\varOmega \rightarrow {\mathbb {R}}^N, N\ge 1, \end{aligned}$$ F [ u ] : = ∫ Ω f ( D u ) d x where u : Ω → R N , N ≥ 1 , where the convex integrand f satisfies controlled (p, q)-growth conditions. We establish higher gradient integrability and partial regularity for minimizers of $${\mathcal {F}}$$ F assuming $$\frac{q}{p}<1+\frac{2}{n-1}$$ q p < 1 + 2 n - 1 , $$n\ge 3$$ n ≥ 3 . This improves earlier results valid under the more restrictive assumption $$\frac{q}{p}<1+\frac{2}{n}$$ q p < 1 + 2 n .

This paper is concerned with partial regularity to nonlinear subelliptic systems with Dini continuous coefficients under quadratic controllable growth conditions in the Heisenberg groupℍn. Based on a generalization of the technique of𝒜-harmonic approximation introduced by Duzaar and Steffen, partial regularity to the sub-elliptic system is established in the Heisenberg group. Our result is optimal in the sense that in the case of Hölder continuous coefficients we establish the optimal Hölder exponent for the horizontal gradients of the weak solution on its regular set.
