We characterize generalized Young measures, the so-called DiPerna-Majda measures which are generated by sequences of gradients. In particular, we precisely describe these measures at the boundary of the domain in the case of the…

We completely characterize generalized Young measures generated by sequences of gradients of maps from $W^{1,1}(\Omega;\R^M)$ where $\Omega\subset\R^N$. This extends and completes previous analysis by Kristensen and Rindler where…

This paper is devoted to the construction of generalized multi-scale Young measures, which are the extension of Pedregal's multi-scale Young measures [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 358 (2006), pp. 591-602] to the setting of generalized Young…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^\nu$, $\nu\ge 2$, be a $C^{1,1}$ domain whose boundary $\partial\Omega$ is either compact or behaves suitably at infinity. For $p\in(1,\infty)$ and $\alpha>0$, define \[…

In this paper, we consider a concentration of measure problem on Riemannian manifolds with boundary. We study concentration phenomena of non-negative $1$-Lipschitz functions with Dirichlet boundary condition around zero, which is called…

It is widely known that the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian is stable under small perturbations of a domain, while in the case of the Neumann or mixed boundary conditions the spectrum may abruptly change. In this work we discuss an…

Given a function $f\in C(\mathbb{R}^d)$ of linear growth, we give a new way of representing accumulation points of \begin{equation} \int_\Omega f(v_i(z))d\mu(z), \end{equation} where $\mu\in \mathcal{M}^+(\Omega)$, and $(v_i)_{i\in…
