Glimpses from the Dark Side of the Calculus of Variations

Abstract

Vectorial variational problems very often exhibit singularities, that is, their solutions are not regular, although data—integrands, coefficients, equations—are smooth. This dark aspect invites us to study the structure of the so-called singular sets: points where solutions become discontinuous, unbounded etc. I will present a few results in this direction, trying to take the audience to the Dark Side.
