Conformal Gravity (CG) is a Weyl--invariant metric theory whose action is free from divergences for generic asymptotically anti-de Sitter spaces. For Neumann boundary conditions, it reduces to renormalized Einstein--AdS gravity at tree…
Partial zeta functions of algebraic varieties over finite fields generalize the classical zeta function by allowing each variable to be defined over a possibly different extension field of a fixed finite field. Due to this extra variation…
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,…
We study conformal properties of local terms such as contact terms and semi-local terms in correlation functions of a conformal field theory. Not all of them are universal observables but they do appear in physically important correlation…
Under a suitable notion of equivalence of integral densities we prove a $\Gamma$-closure theorem for integral functionals: The limit of a sequence of $\Gamma$-convergent families of such functionals is again a $\Gamma$-convergent family.…
We discuss the $\Gamma$-convergence, under the appropriate scaling, of the energy functional $$ \|u\|_{H^s(\Omega)}^2+\int_\Omega W(u)dx,$$ with $s \in (0,1)$, where $\|u\|_{H^s(\Omega)}$ denotes the total contribution from $\Omega$ in the…
We present some recent results obtained by the author on the regularity of solutions to nonlocal variational problems. In particular, we review the notion of fractional De Giorgi class, explain its role in nonlocal regularity theory, and…
We prove a a formula for the first variation of the integral of a log-concave function, which allows us to define the surface area measure of such a function. The formula holds in complete generality with no regularity assumptions, and is…
This note has several aims. Firstly, it portrays a non-standard analysis as a functor, namely a functor * that maps any set A to the set *A of its non-standard elements. That functor, from the category of sets to itself, is postulated to be…
We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of the following functional ($p>2$) $$ F_{\epsilon}(u):=\epsilon^{p-2}\int_{\Omega}|Du|^p d(x,\partial \Omega)^{a}dx+\frac{1}{\epsilon^{\frac{p-2}{p-1}}}\int_{\Omega}W(u) d(x,\partial…
In this manuscript we introduced the generalized fractional Riemann-Liouville and Caputo like derivative for functions defined on fractal sets. The Gamma, Mittag-Leffler and Beta functions were defined on the fractal sets. The non-local…
First, we define some concepts similar to the local compactoidity or the c-compactness, and study relationships between these concepts and the original ones. As a result, we find a characterization of the local compactoidity when its…
Local fractional calculus deals with everywhere continuous but nowhere differentiable functions in fractal space. The Yang-Fourier transform based on the local fractional calculus is a generalization of Fourier transform in fractal space.…
We give extensions of results on nonnegative matrix semigroups which deduce finiteness or boundedness of such semigroups from the corresponding local properties, e.g., from finiteness or boundedness of values of certain linear functionals…
For a family of infinite-dimensional diffusions with degenerate noise, we develop a modified $\Gamma$ calculus on finite-dimensional projections of the equation in order to produce explicit functional inequalities that can be scaled to…
In the context of non-Gaussian analysis, Schneider [27] introduced grey noise measures, built upon Mittag-Leffler functions; analogously, grey Brownian motion and its generalizations were constructed (see, for example, [25], [6], [7], [8]).…
We consider a class of integral functionals with Musielak-Orlicz type variable growth, possibly linear in some regions of the domain. This includes $p(x)$ power-type integrands with $p(x)\ge 1$ as well as double-phase $p\!-\!q$ integrands…
We consider a class of nonconvex energy functionals that lies in the framework of the peridynamics model of continuum mechanics. The energy densities are functions of a nonlocal strain that describes deformation based on pairwise…
This article is devoted to obtain the $\Gamma$-limit, as $\epsilon$ tends to zero, of the family of functionals $$F_{\epsilon}(u)=\int_{\Omega}f\Bigl(x,\frac{x}{\epsilon},..., \frac{x}{\epsilon^n},\nabla u(x)\Bigr)dx$$, where…
In this article, we generalize a theorem of Victor L. Shapiro concerning nontangential convergence of the Poisson integral of a $L^p$-function. We introduce the notion of $\sigma$-points of a locally finite measure and consider a wide class…
