Abstract

We study the nonlocal-to-local convergence for a nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equation with anisotropic and singular kernels. In particular, we show convergence of weak solutions of the nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equation to weak solutions of a corresponding anisotropic Cahn-Hilliard equation for suitable subsequences. Moreover, we show existence of weak solutions for the nonlocal equation under a condition, which guarantees existence of weak solutions for suitably localized or singular kernels.
