= Harris functional
{wiki=Harris_functional}
The Harris functional, often referred to in the context of mathematical analysis and calculus of variations, is associated with a certain type of energy integral. It was introduced by the mathematician C. A. Harris in the context of studying minimal surfaces and surface area functionals. In simple terms, the Harris functional represents a mathematical tool used for characterizing energy configurations, particularly for problems involving surfaces or interfaces in variational calculus.
