The consistency of a nonlocal anisotropic Ginzburg-Landau type functional for data classification and clustering is studied. The Ginzburg-Landau objective functional combines a double well potential, that favours indicator valued function,…
We introduce two shearlet-based Ginzburg--Landau energies, based on the continuous and the discrete shearlet transform. The energies result from replacing the elastic energy term of a classical Ginzburg--Landau energy by the weighted…
We study a weakly coupled supercritical elliptic system of the form \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Delta u = |x_2|^\gamma \left(\mu_{1}|u|^{p-2}u+\lambda\alpha |u|^{\alpha-2}|v|^{\beta}u \right) & \text{in }\Omega,\\ -\Delta v =…
Let $\Gamma$ be a bounded Jordan curve and $\Omega_i,\Omega_e$ its two complementary components. For $p\in (1, \infty),\,s\in(0,1)$ we define the two spaces $\mathcal{B}_{p,p}^s(\Omega_{i,e})$ as the set of harmonic functions $u$…
We prove that, on a planar regular domain, suitably scaled functionals of Ginzburg-Landau type, given by the sum of quadratic fractional Sobolev seminorms and a penalization term vanishing on the unitary sphere, $\Gamma$-converge to…
In the first part of the present paper, we show that strong convergence of $(v_{0 \varepsilon})_{\varepsilon \in (0, 1)}$ in $L^1(\Omega)$ and weak convergence of $(f_{\varepsilon})_{\varepsilon \in (0, 1)}$ in $L_{\textrm{loc}}^1(\overline…
On a bounded domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 2$, we consider existence, uniqueness and "regularity" issues for the Green function $G_\lambda$ of the quasi-linear operator $u \to -\Delta_p u-\lambda |u|^{p-2}u$ with $1<p \leq…
In this article, we show the existence of a nonnegative solution to the singular problem $(\mc P_\la)$ posed in a bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mb R^2$ (see below). We achieve this by approximating the singular function $u^{-\beta}\log(u)$…
We derive Onsager-Machlup functionals for countable product measures on weighted $\ell^p$ subspaces of the sequence space $\mathbb{R}^{\mathbb{N}}$. Each measure in the product is a shifted and scaled copy of a reference probability measure…
The aim of this paper is to develop analytic techniques to deal with certain monotonicity of combinatorial sequences. (1) A criterion for the monotonicity of the function $\sqrt[x]{f(x)}$ is given, which is a continuous analog for one…
We present examples of geometrically finite manifolds with pinched negative curvature, whose geodesic flow has infinite non-ergodic Bowen-Margulis measure and whose Poincar\'e series converges at the critical exponent $\delta_\Gamma$. We…
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth, bounded domain of $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, $\omega$ be a positive, $L^{1}$-normalized function, and $0<s<1<p.$ We study the asymptotic behavior, as $p\rightarrow\infty,$ of the pair $\left( \sqrt[p]{\Lambda_{p}%…
For two-dimensional, immersed closed surfaces $f:\Sigma \to \R^n$, we study the curvature functionals $\mathcal{E}^p(f)$ and $\mathcal{W}^p(f)$ with integrands $(1+|A|^2)^{p/2}$ and $(1+|H|^2)^{p/2}$, respectively. Here $A$ is the second…
We consider a family $\{(u_\varepsilon, v_\varepsilon)\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ of critical points of the Ambrosio-Tortorelli functional. Assuming a uniform energy bound, the sequence $\{(u_\varepsilon, v_\varepsilon)\}_{\varepsilon>0}$ converges…
We study the effective behavior of heterogeneous energies arising in the modeling of material voids in geometrically linear elastic materials. Specifically, we consider functionals featuring bulk terms depending on the symmetrized gradient…

This note completely resolves the asymptotic development of order $2$ by $\Gamma$-convergence of the mass-constrained Cahn--Hilliard functional, by showing that one of the critical assumptions of the authors' previous work (Leoni, Murray,…
