We analyse the $\Gamma$-convergence of general non-local convolution type functionals with varying densities depending on the space variable and on the symmetrized gradient. The limit is a local free-discontinuity functional, where the bulk…

We prove a homogenization theorem for a class of quadratic convolution energies with random coefficients. Under suitably stated hypotheses of ergodicity and stationarity we prove that the $\Gamma$-limit of such energy is almost surely a…
We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of sequences of free discontinuity functionals with linear growth defined in the space ${\rm BD}$ of functions with bounded deformation. We prove a compactness result with respect to $\Gamma$-convergence…
We propose an abstract framework for the homogenization of random functionals which may contain non-convex terms, based on a two-scale $\Gamma$-convergence approach and a definition of Young measures on micropatterns which encodes the…
In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour via Gamma-convergence of some integral functionals which model some multi-dimensional structures and depend explicitly on the linearized strain tensor. The functionals are defined in…

We analyze the behaviour of double-well energies perturbed by fractional Gagliardo squared seminorms in $H^s$ close to the critical exponent $s=\frac12$. This is done by computing a scaling factor $\lambda(\varepsilon,s)$, continuous in…
We study stochastic homogenization for convex integral functionals $$u\mapsto \int_D W(\omega,\tfrac{x}\varepsilon,\nabla u)\,\mathrm{d}x,\quad\mbox{where}\quad u:D\subset \mathbb{R}^d\to\mathbb{R}^m,$$ defined on Sobolev spaces. Assuming…
In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour of phase-field functionals of Am brosio and Tortorelli type allowing for small-scale oscillations both in the volume and in the diffuse surface term. The functionals under examination can be…
This paper is on $\Gamma$-convergence for degenerate integral functionals related to homogenisation problems in the Heisenberg group. Here both the rescaling and the notion of invariance or periodicity are chosen in a way motivated by the…
In this paper we generalize to arbitrary dimensions a one-dimensional equicoerciveness and $\Gamma$-convergence result for a second derivative perturbation of Perona-Malik type functionals. Our proof relies on a new density result in the…
We study the limit behavior of Cahn--Hilliard-type functionals in which the derivative is replaced by higher-order fractional derivatives and modulated by an oscillating factor. Depending on the ratio between the oscillation scale and the…
In this work we examine the stability of some classes of integrals, and in particular with respect to homogenization. The prototypical case is the homogenization of quadratic energies with periodic coefficients perturbed by a term vanishing…

We consider second order phase field functionals, in the continuum setting, and their discretization with isogeometric tensor product B-splines. We prove that these functionals, continuum and discrete, $\Gamma$-converge to a brittle…
In this paper we analyze the asymptotic behavior of several fractional eigenvalue problems by means of Gamma-convergence methods. This method allows us to treat different eigenvalue problems under a unified framework. We are able to recover…
