We use integration by parts formulas to give estimates for the $L^p$ norm of the Riesz transform. This is motivated by the representation formula for conditional expectations of functionals on the Wiener space already given in Malliavin and…
This doctoral thesis is devoted to the analysis of some minimization problems that involve nonlocal functionals. We are mainly concerned with the $s$-fractional perimeter and its minimizers, the $s$-minimal sets. We investigate the behavior…
This paper introduces a direct differentiation-based framework that unifies the derivation of influence functions across parametric, nonparametric, and semiparametric models. We show that the Riesz representer of the functional derivative…
We investigate properties of minimal $N$-point Riesz $s$-energy on fractal sets of non-integer dimension, as well as asymptotic behavior of $N$-point configurations that minimize this energy. For $s$ bigger than the dimension of the set…
The article is an attempt to investigate the issues of asymptotic analysis for problems involving fractional Laplacian where the domains tend to become unbounded in one-direction. Motivated from the pioneering work on second order elliptic…
We develop a gradient-flow theory for time-dependent functionals defined in abstract metric spaces. Global well-posedness and asymptotic behavior of solutions are provided. Conditions on functionals and metric spaces allow to consider the…
Let $\Gamma$ be a group and $r_n(\Gamma)$ the number of its $n$-dimensional irreducible complex representations. We define and study the associated representation zeta function $\calz_\Gamma(s) = \suml^\infty_{n=1} r_n(\Gamma)n^{-s}$. When…
In this paper we study the $s$-dimensional Riesz transform of a finite measure $\mu$ in $\mathbf{R}^d$, with $s\in (d-1,d)$. We show that the boundedness of the Riesz transform of $\mu$ implies that a nonlinear potential of exponential type…
We consider the minimization of integral functionals in one dimension and their approximation by $r$-adaptive finite elements. Including the grid of the FEM approximation as a variable in the minimization, we are able to show that the…
We consider the homogenization of random integral functionals which are possibly unbounded, that is, the domain of the integrand is not the whole space and may depend on the space-variable. In the vectorial case, we develop a complete…
On a compact connected group $G$, consider the infinitesimal generator $-L$ of a central symmetric Gaussian convolution semigroup $(\mu_t)_{t>0}$. We establish several regularity results of the solution to the Poisson equation $LU=F$, both…
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…
In this paper, we study the boundedness of the fractional Riesz transforms in the Dunkl setting. Moreover, we establish the necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness of their commutator with respect to the central BMO space…
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…
We study the existence of positive solutions for nonlocal systems in gradient form and set in the whole $\mathbb R^N$. A quasilinear fractional Schr\"odinger equation, where the leading operator is the $\frac Ns$-fractional Laplacian, is…
We study the $H$-convergence of nonlocal linear operators in fractional divergence form, where the oscillations of the matrices are prescribed outside the reference domain. Our compactness argument bypasses the failure of the classical…
We study a class of non-local functionals that was introduced by Brezis-Seeger-Van Schaftingen-Yung (2022), and can be used to characterize functions of bounded variation. We give a new lower bound for the liminf of these functionals,…
This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of a class of nonlinear variational problems with Robin-type boundary conditions on a bounded Lipschitz domain. The energy functional contains a bulk term (the $p$-norm of the gradient), a…
Taking up a variational viewpoint, we present some nonlocal-to-local asymptotic results for various kinds of integral functionals. The content of the thesis comprises the contributions first appeared in some research papers in collaboration…
We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of a family of non-local, non-convex functionals in $L^p(I)$ for $p \ge 1$, where $I$ is an open interval. We show that the limit is a multiple of the $W^{1, p}(I)$ semi-norm to the power $p$ when $p>1$…
