Questions on the calculus of variations, which deals with the optimization of functionals mostly defined on infinite dimensional spaces.

Does there exist energy-minimizing immersions?
I believe that in general, without any additional assumptions about the manifolds, the answer is in the negative. A counterexample can be found for mappings between annuli. Let $A=A(r,R)$ and $A_*=A(r …

Uniqueness of minimizers in a problem in the Calculus of Variations - Part II
Existence of minimizers should not be a severe issue...
The proof of the existence follows form the Arzela-Ascoli theorem, but the proof is not entirely obvious. This is Proposition 1.1 in:
E. G …

Hausdorff dimension of the non-differentiability set a convex function
This is true and it follows from the following result:
Lemma. Suppset that $f:W\to\mathbb{R}$ is convex and $L$-Lipschitz, where $W\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ is convex. Then,
$$
\tilde{f}(x)=\inf_{z\in W}\ …

Is $L^1$ strong convergence of Jacobians valid for maps between manifolds?
You actually do not need to assume that the mappings are Lipschitz as it is true for general $W^{1,n}$ mappings
Theorem. If $\mathcal{M}$ and $\mathcal{N}$ are smooth compact and oriented manifolds, …

An $L^1$ function but (really) no better?
There is a much more general result of Vallée-Poussin from which a negative answer to your question follows.
Let $(X,\mu)$ be a measure space. We say that a family of function $\mathcal{F}\subset L^1( …
