Stability and regularity of defects in crystalline solids

<p>This thesis is devoted to the mathematical analysis of models describing the energy of defects in crystalline solids via variational methods.</p> <p>The first part of this work studies a discrete model describing the energy of a point defect in a one dimensional chain of atoms....
