We consider the family of non-local and non-convex functionals introduced by H. Brezis and H.-M. Nguyen in a recent paper. These functionals Gamma-converge to a multiple of the Sobolev norm or the total variation, depending on a summability…

In this paper we connect Calder\'on and Zygmund's notion of $L^p$\- -differentiability with some recent characterizations of Sobolev spaces via the asymptotics of non-local functionals due to Bourgain, Brezis, and Mironescu. We show how the…

Numerous characterizations of Sobolev norms via the asymptotic behavior of non-local functionals have been established over the past decades; however, their validity beyond the PI framework remains poorly understood. We establish such a…

In this paper, we expand upon the theory of the space of functions with nonlocal weighted bounded variation, first introduced by Kindermann et.al. in 2005 and later generalized by Wang et.al. in 2014. We consider nonfractional C^1 weights…
