Motivated by applications to image reconstruction, in this paper we analyse a \emph{finite-difference discretisation} of the Ambrosio-Tortorelli functional. Denoted by $\varepsilon$ the elliptic-approximation parameter and by $\delta$ the…
``Orderly divergence'' deals with limit theorems for weighted stochastic Gamma integrals of otherwise nonintegrable functions. Although for monotonic functions this category usually coincides with the classical notion of weighted limit…
We consider a monomial Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg inequality, find the optimal constant and classify the optimizers under an integrated curvature dimension condition. We take advantage of the $\Gamma$-calculus to exploit geometrical…
On two subsurfaces of a Riemann surface divided by a $p$-Weil-Petersson curve $\gamma$, we consider the spaces of harmonic functions whose $p$-Dirichlet integrals are finite in the complementary domains of $\gamma$. By requiring the…
A representation formula for the relaxation of integral energies $$(u,v)\mapsto\int_{\Omega} f(x,u(x),v(x))\,dx,$$ is obtained, where $f$ satisfies $p$-growth assumptions, $1<p<+\infty$, and the fields $v$ are subjected to space-dependent…
An $L(2,1)$-labelling of a finite graph $\Gamma$ is a function that assigns integer values to the vertices $V(\Gamma)$ of $\Gamma$ (colouring of $V(\Gamma)$ by ${\mathbb{Z}}$) so that the absolute difference of two such values is at least…

We consider the Willmore functional on graphs, with an additional penalization of the area where the curvature is non-zero. Interpreting the penalization parameter as a Lagrange multiplier, this corresponds to the Willmore functional with a…
We show a universal algebraic local characterisation of the expressive power of finite-valued languages with domains of arbitrary cardinality and containing arbitrary many cost functions.
A wide class of boundary problems in quantum mechanics is discussed by using path integrals. This includes motion in half-spaces, radial boxes, rings, and moving boundaries. As a preparation the formalism for the incorporation of…
Let $D$, called the domain, be a fixed finite set and let $\Gamma$, called the valued constraint language, be a fixed set of functions of the form $f:D^m\to\mathbb{Q}\cup\{\infty\}$, where different functions might have different arity $m$.…
Given a locally finite graph $\Gamma$, an amenable subgroup $G$ of graph automorphisms acting freely and almost transitively on its vertices, and a $G$-invariant activity function $\lambda$, consider the free energy $f_G(\Gamma,\lambda)$ of…
This paper considers some integrals where the integrand comprises the log gamma function or the digamma function multiplied by exponential or trigonometric functions.
The resolvent convergence of self-adjoint operators via the technique of $\Gamma$-convergence of quadratic forms is adapted to incorporate complex Hilbert spaces. As an application, we find effective operators to the Dirichlet Laplacian…
Spaces of harmonic functions in upper half-space with controlled growth near the boundary are described in terms of multiresolution approximations. The results are applied to prove the law of the iterated logarithm for the oscillation of…
The theory of normal variance mixture distributions is used to provide elementary derivations of closed-form expressions for the definite integrals $\int_0^\infty x^{-2\nu}\cos(bx)\gamma(\nu,\alpha x^2)\,\mathrm{d}x$ (for $\nu>1/2$, $b>0$…
We study the pointwise supremum of convex integral functionals $\mathcal{I}_{f,\gamma}(\xi)= \sup_{Q} \left( \int_\Omega f(\omega,\xi(\omega))Q(d\omega)-\gamma(Q)\right)$ on $L^\infty(\Omega,\mathcal{F},\mathbb{P})$ where…
We obtain necessary optimality conditions for variational problems with a Lagrangian depending on a Caputo fractional derivative, a fractional and an indefinite integral. Main results give fractional Euler-Lagrange type equations and…
In the paper, some lower bounds for polygamma functions are refined.
The paper is devoted to the linearization of the non linear Signorini functional in the incompressible case. The limit functional, in the sense of Gamma-convergence, may coincide with the expected one only in some particular cases.
