AbstractIn [15], Jean Taylor proved a regularity theorem away from the boundary for Almgren almost minimal sets of dimension 2 in {\mathbb{R}^{3}}. It is quite important for understanding the soap films and the solutions of Plateau’s problem away from boundary. In this paper, we will give a regularity result on the boundary for two-dimensional sliding almost minimal sets in {\mathbb{R}^{3}}.

This chapter gives a partial account of the situation of Plateau's problem on the existence and regularity of soap films with a given boundary. It starts with a description of some of the most celebrated solutions of Plateau's problem, followed by a description of a few easy examples. The chapter then returns to the modeling problem and mentions a few additional ways to state a Plateau problem. It briefly describes the known local regularity properties of the Almgren minimal sets, and why we would like to extend some of these regularity results to sliding minimal sets, all the way to the boundary. At the same time, the chapter considers why these solutions are not always entirely satisfactory. Finally, the chapter explains why the regularity results for sliding Almgren minimal sets also apply to solutions of the Reifenberg and size minimization problems described earlier in the chapter.

AbstractIn this paper we obtain the local Hölder regularity of the weak solutions for singular parabolic equations with variable exponents. The proof is based on DiBenedetto’s technique called intrinsic scaling; by choosing an appropriate geometry one can deduce energy and logarithmic estimates from which one can implement an iterative method to obtain the regularity result.

Abstract In this paper we review the double covers method with constrained BV functions for solving the classical Plateau’s problem. Next, we carefully analyze some interesting examples of soap films compatible with covers of degree larger than two: in particular, the case of a soap film only partially wetting a space curve, a soap film spanning a cubical frame but having a large tunnel, a soap film that retracts to its boundary, and various soap films spanning an octahedral frame.
