Exponential type duality for η-approximated variational problems [PDF]
In this article, we use the so-called η-approximation method for solving a new class of nonconvex variational problems with exponential (p, r)-invex functionals.

A new variational approach for a boundary value problem in mathematical physics is proposed. By considering two-field Lagrange multipliers, we deliver a variational formulation consisting of a mixed variational problem which is equivalent with a saddle ...

Duality for a class of second order symmetric nondifferentiable fractional variational problems [PDF]
The present work frames a pair of symmetric dual problems for second order nondifferentiable fractional variational problems over cone constraints with the help of support functions.

Invariant variation problems [PDF]
The problems in variation here concerned are such as to admit a continuous group (in Lie's sense); the conclusions that emerge from the corresponding differential equations find their most general expression in the theorems formulated in Section 1 and proved in following sections.

. Many important questions in the theory of elasticity lead to a variational problem associated with a biharmonic equation and to the corresponding boundary value problems for such an equation.

Variational differential inclusions without ellipticity condition
The paper sets forth a new type of variational problem without any ellipticity or monotonicity condition. A prototype is a differential inclusion whose driving operator is the competing weighted $(p,q)$-Laplacian $-\Delta_p u+\mu\Delta_q u$ with $\mu\in

Coisotropic variational problems [PDF]
In this article we study constrained variational problems in one independent variable defined on the space of integral curves of a Frenet system in a homogeneous space G/H. We prove that if the Lagrangian is G-invariant and coisotropic then the extremal curves can be found by quadratures. Our proof is constructive and relies on the reduction theory for

Computation of $\mu$-symmetry and $\mu$-conservation law for the Camassa-Holm and Hunter-Saxton equations [PDF]
This work is intended to compute the $\mu$-symmetry and $\mu$-conservation laws for the Cammasa-Holm (CH) equation and the Hunter-Saxton (HS) equation. In other words, $\mu$-symmetry, $\mu$-symmetry reduction, variational problem, and $\mu$-conservation ...

Variations on the Two-Child Problem
Abstract Mr. Smith has two children. Given that at least one of them is a boy, how likely is it that Mr. Smith has two boys? It’s a very standard puzzle in elementary books on probability theory. Whoever asks you this question hopes that you will answer “1/2”, in which case they can say triumphantly “Oh no, the answer is 1/3 ”.
