SynopsisWe demonstrate local Lipschitz regularity for minimisers of certain functionals which are appropriately convex and quadratic near infinity. The proof employs a blow-up argument entailing a linearisation of the Euler—Lagrange equations “at infinity”. As a application, we prove that minimisers for the relaxed optimal design problem derived by Kohn and Strang [3] are locally Lipschitz.

AbstractThis paper gives a direct and elementary proof of the fact that under hypotheses of Tonelli type, solutions to the basic problem in the calculus of variations are Lipschitz when the Lagrangian is autonomous. This fact was first proved by Clarke and Vinter in 1985, using other methods.
