We study {\Gamma}-convergence of nonconvex variational integrals of the calculus of variations in the setting of Cheeger-Sobolev spaces. Applications to relaxation and homogenization are given.
The article studies the reiterated homogenization of linear elliptic variational inequalities arising in problems with unilateral constrains. We assume that the coefficients of the equations satisfy and abstract hypothesis covering on each…
In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour via Gamma-convergence of some integral functionals which model some multi-dimensional structures and depend explicitly on the linearized strain tensor. The functionals are defined in…
We analyse the $\Gamma$-convergence of general non-local convolution type functionals with varying densities depending on the space variable and on the symmetrized gradient. The limit is a local free-discontinuity functional, where the bulk…
This article addresses the homogenization of linear Boltzmann equation when the optical parameters are highly heterogeneous in the energy variable. We employ the method of two-scale convergence to arrive at the homogenization result. In…
We prove density of smooth functions in subspaces of Sobolev- and higher order $BV$-spaces of kind $W^{m,p}(\Omega)\cap L^q(\Omega-D)$ and $BV^m(\Omega)\cap L^q(\Omega-D)$, respectively, where $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ ($n\in\mathbb{N}$)…
In this paper, we investigate the $L^2$-Dolbeault cohomology of the symmetric power of cotangent bundles of ball quotients with finite volume, as well as their toroidal compactification. Through the application of Hodge theory for complete…
Subtle issues arise when extending homotopy invariants to spaces of functions having little regularity, e.g., Sobolev spaces containing discontinuous functions. Sometimes it is not possible to extend the invariant at all, and sometimes,…
The limit of energies of a sequence of harmonic maps as their annular domains approach the boundary of moduli space depends upon the boundary point approached. The infinite energy case is associated with limits of images containing ruled…
We study the limit behaviour of singularly-perturbed elliptic functionals of the form \[ \mathcal F_k(u,v)=\int_A v^2\,f_k(x,\nabla u)\.dx+\frac{1}{\varepsilon_k}\int_A g_k(x,v,\varepsilon_k\nabla v)\.dx\,, \] where $u$ is a vector-valued…
An integral representation result for free-discontinuity energies defined on the space $GSBV^{p(\cdot)}$ of generalized special functions of bounded variation with variable exponent is proved, under the assumption of log-H\"older continuity…
We deal with the relaxed area functional in the strict $BV$-convergence of non-smooth maps defined in domains of generic dimension and taking values into the unit circle. In case of Sobolev maps, a complete explicit formula is obtained. Our…
Given a unital algebra $\mathscr A$ of locally Lipschitz functions defined over a metric measure space $({\mathrm X},{\mathsf d},\mathfrak m)$, we study two associated notions of function of bounded variation and their relations: the space…
We introduce the notion of generalized function taking values in a smooth manifold into the setting of full Colombeau algebras. After deriving a number of characterization results we also introduce a corresponding concept of generalized…
We study stochastic homogenization for convex integral functionals $$u\mapsto \int_D W(\omega,\tfrac{x}\varepsilon,\nabla u)\,\mathrm{d}x,\quad\mbox{where}\quad u:D\subset \mathbb{R}^d\to\mathbb{R}^m,$$ defined on Sobolev spaces. Assuming…
The present paper is devoted to a theory of profile decomposition for bounded sequences in \emph{homogeneous} Sobolev spaces, and it enables us to analyze the lack of compactness of bounded sequences. For every bounded sequence in…
A rather complete investigation of anisotropic Bessel potential, Besov, and H\"older spaces on cylinders over (possibly) noncompact Riemannian manifolds with boundary is carried out. The geometry of the underlying manifold near its 'ends'…
In this paper, we study functions of bounded variation on a complete and connected metric space with finite one-dimensional Hausdorff measure. The definition of BV functions on a compact interval based on pointwise variation is extended to…
Let X be a compact complex manifold endowed with a big line bundle L. We define the energy at equilibrium of a weighted subset as the Monge-Ampere energy of the associated extremal plurisubharmonic weight. We prove the differentiability of…
Asymptotic behavior of energy of a harmonic map defined on an asymptotically hyperbolic manifold is considered. Using the growth of energy, we show that a harmonic map defined on some asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds has to be constant…
