This article provides a new approach to address Mosco convergence of gradient-type Dirichlet forms, $\mathcal E^N$ on $L^2(E,\mu_N)$ for $N\in\mathbb N$, in the framework of converging Hilbert spaces by K.~Kuwae and T.~Shioya. The basic…
We consider the question of convergence of a sequence of gradient flows defined on different Hilbert spaces. In order to give meaning to this idea, we introduce a notion of connecting operators. This permits us to generalize the concept of…
In this work we consider higher dimensional thin domains with the property that both boundaries, bottom and top, present oscillations of weak type. We consider the Laplace operator with Neumann boundary conditions and analyze the behavior…
We consider a countably generated and uniformly closed algebra of bounded functions. We assume that there is a lower semicontinuous, with respect to the supremum norm, quadratic form and that normal contractions operate in a certain sense.…
We prove that stable-like non-local Dirichlet forms converge to local Dirichlet form in the sense of Mosco on metric measure spaces. We prove that subordinated Dirichlet forms converge to the original Dirichlet form in the sense of Mosco on…
The $\Gamma$-convergence of lower bounded quadratic forms is used to study the singular operator limit of thin tubes (i.e., the vanishing of the cross section diameter) of the Laplace operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions; a procedure…
We present a way of defining the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator on general Hilbert spaces using a pair of operators for which each one's adjoint is formally the negative of the other. In particular, we define an abstract analogue of trace…
We elaborate a new method for constructing traces of quadratic forms in the framework of Hilbert and Dirichlet spaces. Our method relies on monotone convergence of quadratic forms and the canonical decomposition into regular and singular…
The Dirichlet Laplacian between two parallel hypersurfaces in Euclidean spaces of any dimension in the presence of a magnetic field is considered in the limit when the distance between the hypersurfaces tends to zero. We show that the…
We consider a sequence of Dirichlet problems in varying domains (or, more generally, of relaxed Dirichlet problems involving measures in M_0) for second order linear elliptic operators in divergence form with varying matrices of…
Formal Laplace operators are analyzed for a large class of resistance networks with vertex weights. The graphs are completed with respect to the minimal resistance path metric. Compactness and a novel connectivity hypothesis for the…
Norm-resolvent convergence with order-sharp error estimate is established for Neumann Laplacians on thin domains in $\mathbb{R}^d,$ $d\ge2,$ converging to metric graphs in the limit of vanishing thickness parameter in the resonant case. The…
We provide decompositions of Dirichlet forms into recurrent and transient parts as well as into conservative and dissipative parts, in the framework of Hausdorff state spaces. Combining both formulae we write every Dirichlet form as the sum…
We consider a family of compact manifolds which shrinks with respect to an appropriate parameter to a graph. The main result is that the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator converges to the spectrum of the (differential) Laplacian on…
We study the Dirichlet problem in Lipschitz domains and with boundary data in Besov spaces, for divergence form strongly elliptic systems of arbitrary order, with bounded, complex-valued coefficients. Our main result gives a sharp condition…
The weak well-posedness results of the strongly damped linear wave equation and of the non linear Westervelt equation with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions are proved on arbitrary three dimensional domains or any two dimensional…
In a recent article, Arendt and ter Elst have shown that every sectorial form is in a natural way associated with the generator of an analytic strongly continuous semigroup, even if the form fails to be closable. As an intermediate step…
This work provides an extension of parts of the classical finite dimensional sub-elliptic theory in the context of infinite dimensional compact connected metrizable groups. Given a well understood and well behaved bi-invariant Laplacian,…
