In this paper, we study four nonlocal diffusion operators, including the fractional Laplacian, spectral fractional Laplacian, regional fractional Laplacian, and peridynamic operator. These operators represent the infinitesimal generators of…
We study problems in which a local model is coupled with a nonlocal one. We propose two energies: both of them are based on the same classical weighted $H^1$-semi norm to model the local part, while two different weighted $H^s$-semi norms,…

In this paper we study two different ways of coupling a local operator with a nonlocal one in such a way that the resulting equation is related to an energy functional. In the first strategy the coupling is given via source terms in the…
The Laplacian $\Delta$ is the infinitesimal generator of isotropic Brownian motion, being the limit process of normal diffusion, while the fractional Laplacian $\Delta^{\beta/2}$ serves as the infinitesimal generator of the limit process of…
In this paper, we extend the idea of "geometric reconstruction" to couple a nonlocal diffusion model directly with the classical local diffusion in one dimensional space. This new coupling framework removes interfacial inconsistency,…
In this paper, we analyze a model composed by coupled local and nonlocal diffusion equations acting in different subdomains. We consider the limit case when one of the subdomains is thin in one direction (it is concentrated to a domain of…
We derive the dual variational principle (principle of minimal complementary energy) for the nonlocal nonlinear scalar diffusion problem, which may be viewed as the nonlocal version of the $p$-Laplacian operator. We establish existence and…
The paper deals with second order parabolic equations on bounded domains with Dirichlet conditions in arbitrary Euclidean spaces. Their interest comes from being models for describing reaction-diffusion processes in several frameworks. A…

Many systems of physical and biological interest are characterized by assemblies of phase oscillators whose interaction is mediated by a diffusing chemical. The coupling effect results from the fact that the local concentration of the…
We analyze a nonlocal coupled system arising as the Euler--Lagrange equations of an energy functional involving regional fractional Laplacians of orders $s_1$ and $s_2$ ($ 0 < s_1,s_2 < 1$), each acting on a separate disjoint domain and…
We study the Cauchy problem for non-linear non-local operators that may be degenerate. Our general framework includes cases where the jump intensity is allowed to depend on the values of the solution itself, e.g. the porous medium equation…
