We provide a rigorous mathematical framework to establish the limit of a nonlocal model of cell-cell adhesion system to a local model. When the parameter of the nonlocality goes to 0, the system tends to a Cahn-Hilliard system with…
Electroweak symmetry breaking may arise from emergent nonlocal K\"{a}ll\`{e}n-Lehmann spectral densities in Hamiltonians with multiscalar interactions. The nonlocality scale $\Lambda_{NL}$ emerges naturally from the exponentially increasing…
