In this paper, we compute exactly the average density of a harmonically confined Riesz gas of $N$ particles for large $N$ in the presence of a hard wall. In this Riesz gas, the particles repel each other via a pairwise interaction that…

For $\Omega_\e=(0,\e)\times (0,1)$ a thin rectangle, we consider minimization of the two-dimensional nonlocal isoperimetric problem given by \[ \inf_u E^{\gamma}_{\Omega_\e}(u)\] where \[ E^{\gamma}_{\Omega_\e}(u):=…

We investigate generalized liquid drop models with screened Riesz-type interactions, focusing in particular on truncated Coulomb and Yukawa potentials in three dimensions. While the classical Gamow model with Coulomb interaction is…

We study an isoperimetric problem described by a functional that consists of the standard Gaussian perimeter and the norm of the barycenter. This second term has a repulsive effect, and it is in competition with the perimeter. Because of…

We prove a compactness result with respect to $\Gamma$-convergence for a class of integral functionals which are expressed as a sum of a local and a non-local term. The main feature is that, under our hypotheses, the local part of the…

In this paper we provide density estimates for a class of functions which includes all the minimizers of the energy $\mathcal{E}_s^p(u,\Omega):=(1-s)\left(\frac{1}{2}\int_{\Omega}\int_{\Omega}\frac{|u(x)-u(y)|^p}{|x-y|^{n+sp}}\,dx\,dy…

The study of singular perturbations of the Dirichlet energy is at the core of the phenomenological-description paradigm in soft condensed matter. Being able to pass to the limit plays a crucial role in the understanding of the…

For a diblock copolymer with total chain length $\gamma>0$ and mass ratio $m\in(-1,1)$, we consider the problem of minimizing the doubly nonlocal free energy $$ \mathcal{E}_{\varepsilon}(u) =\mathcal{H}(u) +\frac{1}{\varepsilon^{2s}}…

This doctoral thesis is devoted to the analysis of some minimization problems that involve nonlocal functionals. We are mainly concerned with the $s$-fractional perimeter and its minimizers, the $s$-minimal sets. We investigate the behavior…

We consider a one-phase nonlocal free boundary problem obtained by the superposition of a fractional Dirichlet energy plus a nonlocal perimeter functional. We prove that the minimizers are H\"older continuous and the free boundary has…
