Given a Young function $A$, $n\geq 1$ and $s\in(0,1)$ we consider the energy functional $$ \mathcal{J}_s(u)=(1-s)\iint_{\mathbb{R}^n\times \mathbb{R}^n} A\left(\frac{|u(x)-u(y)|}{|x-y|^s}\right)\frac{dxdy}{|x-y|^n}. $$ Without assuming the…

Let $\mathcal{L}=-\Delta+V$ be a Schr\"{o}dinger operator, where the nonnegative potential $V$ belongs to the reverse H\"{o}lder class $B_{q}$. By the aid of the subordinative formula, we estimate the regularities of the fractional heat…

Let $X$ be a metric space with doubling measure, and $L$ be a nonnegative self-adjoint operator on $L^2(X)$ whose heat kernel satisfies the Gaussian upper bound. Let $f$ be in the space $ {\rm BMO}_L(X)$ associated with the operator $L$ and…

This paper is concerned with the $\Gamma$-limits of Ambrosio-Tortorelli-type functionals, for maps $u$ defined on an open bounded set $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ and taking values in the unit circle $\mathbb S^1\subset\mathbb R^2$. Depending…

We construct the upper and lower Bellman functions for the $L^p$ (quasi)-norms of BMO functions. These appear as solutions to a series of Monge--Amp\`ere boundary value problems on a non-convex plane domain. The knowledge of the Bellman…

Let $f$ be a function on a bounded domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ and $\delta$ be a positive function on $\Omega$ such that $B(x,\delta(x))\subseteq \Omega$. Let $\sigma(f)(x)$ be the average of $f$ over the ball $B(x,\delta(x))$.…

In the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure supporting a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that BV functions are, in the sense of multiple limits, continuous with respect to a 1-fine topology, at almost every point with…

The function $\Gamma$ on the space of graphons, introduced in [CGH$^+$15], aims to measure the extent to which a graphon $w$ exhibits the Robinson property: for all $x<y<z$, $w(x,z)\leq \min\{ w(x,y),w(y,z)\}$. Robinson graphons form a…

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 $\nu_{\gamma} (E_{\lambda,\gamma/p}[u])$…

This paper addresses the asymptotics of functionals with linear growth depending on the Riesz $s$-fractional gradient on piecewise constant functions. We consider a general class of varying energy densities and, as $s\to 1$, we characterize…

We provide new characterizations of the $BMO$-Sobolev space $I_{\alpha}(BMO)$ for the range $0 < \alpha <2$. When $0 < \alpha <1$, our characterizations are in terms of square functions measuring multiscale approximation of constants, and…

The bounded variation seminorm and the Sobolev seminorm on compact manifolds are represented as a limit of fractional Sobolev seminorms. This establishes a characterization of functions of bounded variation and of Sobolev functions on…

For a chordal SLE$_\kappa$ ($\kappa\in(0,8)$) curve in a domain $D$, the $n$-point Green's function valued at distinct points $z_1,\dots,z_n\in D$ is defined to be $$G(z_1,\dots,z_n)=\lim_{r_1,\dots,r_n\downarrow 0} \prod_{k=1}^n r_k^{d-2}…

In this paper, we extend recent work on the functions that we call Bernstein-gamma to the class of bivariate Bernstein-gamma functions. In the more general bivariate setting, we determine Stirling-type asymptotic bounds which generalise,…

De Giorgi conjectured in 1979 that if a sequence of parabolic functionals Gamma converges to a limiting functional, then the corresponding gradient flows will converge as well after changing timescale appropriately. This paper studies the…

Let $\alpha\in (0, 1]$, $\beta\in [0, n)$ and $T_{\Omega,\beta}$ be a singular or fractional integral operator with homogeneous kernel $\Omega$. In this article, a CMO type space ${\rm CMO}_\alpha(\mathbb R^n)$ is introduced and studied. In…

We prove a Gamma-convergence result for an energy functional related to some fractional powers of the Laplacian operator, with two singular perturbations (one in the interior and one on the boundary).

We propose a possible nonlocal approximation of the Willmore functional, in the sense of Gamma-convergence, based on the first variation ot the fractional Allen-Cahn energies, and we prove the corresponding $\Gamma$-limsup estimate. Our…

We establish sharp inequalities involving the incomplete Beta and Gamma functions. These inequalities arise in the approximation of generalized Bernstein functions by higher order Thorin-Bernstein functions. Furthermore, new properties of a…

In this note, we study a quantitative extension of the John-Nirenberg inequality for the Hardy-Littlewood maximal function of a $\operatorname{BMO}$ function. More precisely, for every nonconstant locally integrable function $f$ such that…
