We investigate a natural approximation by subcritical Sobolev embeddings of the Sobolev quotient for the fractional Sobolev spaces $H^s$ for any $0<s<N/2$, using $\Gamma$-convergence techniques. We show that, for such approximations,…

We prove $L^p$ quantitative differentiability estimates for functions defined on uniformly rectifiable subsets of the Euclidean space. More precisely, we show that a Dorronsoro-type theorem holds in this context: the $L^p$ norm of the…

We study the pointwise convergence and the $\Gamma$-convergence of a family of non-local, non-convex functionals $\Lambda_\delta$ in $L^p(\Omega)$ for $p>1$. We show that the limits are multiples of $\int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|^p$. This is a…

In this paper, we specify a set of optimal subspaces for $L_2$ approximation of three classes of functions in the Sobolev space $W^{(r)}_2$, defined on a segment and subject to certain boundary conditions. All of these subspaces are…

We obtain new characterizations of the Sobolev spaces $\dot W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ and the bounded variation space $\dot{BV}(\mathbb{R}^N)$. The characterizations are in terms of the functionals $\nu_{\gamma} (E_{\lambda,\gamma/p}[u])$…
