    Abstract

    We study the existence and regularity of solutions to the capillarity problem for compressible liquids in a tube. We introduce an appropriate space of functions of bounded variation, in which the energy functional introduced recently by Robert Finn can be defined. We prove existence of a locally Lipschitz minimizer in this class.
