Abstract

We study the Γ\Gamma-convergence of a family of non-local, non-convex functionals in Lp(I)L^p(I) for p1p \ge 1, where II is an open interval. We show that the limit is a multiple of the W1,p(I)W^{1, p}(I) semi-norm to the power pp when p>1p>1 (resp. the BV(I)BV(I) semi-norm when p=1p=1). In dimension one, this extends earlier results which required a monotonicity condition.
