Branching solutions to one-dimensional variational problems /
This study deals with the new class of one-dimensional variational problems - the problems with branching solutions. Instead of extreme curves (mappings of a segment to a manifold) it investigates extreme networks, which are mappings of graphs (one-dimensional cell complexes) to a manifold. Various...
