We consider a core-radius approach to nonlocal perimeters governed by isotropic kernels having critical and supercritical exponents, extending the nowadays classical notion of $s$-fractional perimeter, defined for $0<s<1$, to the case $s\ge…

We prove compactness with respect to $\Gamma$-convergence for a general class of non-local energies modelled after the ones considered in [Gobbino, CPAM (1998)]. We give an integral representation result for the limits, which are free…

In this note we prove that appropriately scaled threshold dynamics-type algorithms corresponding to the fractional Laplacian of order $\alpha \in (0,2)$ converge to moving fronts. When $\alpha \geqq 1$ the resulting interface moves by…

In this paper the study of a nonlocal second order Cahn-Hilliard-type singularly perturbed family of functions is undertaken. The kernels considered include those leading to Gagliardo fractional seminorms for gradients. Using Gamma…

In this paper, we study the asymptotic limit, as $\varepsilon\to 0$, of solutions to a vector-valued Allen-Cahn equation $$ \partial_t u = \Delta u - \frac{1}{\varepsilon^2} \partial_u F(u), $$ where $u: \Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^m \to…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the renormalised $s$-fractional Gaussian perimeter of a set $E$ inside a domain $\Omega$ as $s\to 0^+$. Contrary to the Euclidean case, as the Gaussian measure is finite, the shape of the set at infinity…

In this thesis we show that the partial sums of the Maclaurin series for a certain class of entire functions possess scaling limits in various directions in the complex plane. In doing so we obtain information about the zeros of the partial…

The phenomenon of centrality scaling in the high-\pt spectra of $\pi^0$ produced in Au-Au collisions at $\sqrt s=200$ GeV is examined in the framework of relating fractional energy loss to fractional centrality increase. A new scaling…

We consider a variational problem modeling transition between flat and wrinkled region in a thin elastic sheet, and identify the $\Gamma$-limit as the sheet thickness goes to 0, thus extending the previous work of the first author [Bella,…

Let $f(q)=1+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \alpha(n)q^n$ be the well-known third order mock theta of Ramanujan. In 1964, George Andrews proved an asymptotic formula of the form $$\alpha(n)= \sum_{c\leq\sqrt{n}}…

The $\gamma^{*}\rho^0\to\pi^0$ transition form factor is extracted from recent result for the $\gamma^* \gamma^* \pi^0$ form factor obtained in the extended hard-wall AdS/QCD model with a Chern-Simons term. In the large momentum region, the…

In this set of notes, we present some recent developments on the fractional Allen-Cahn equation $$ (-\Delta)^s u = u-u^3,$$ with special attention to $\Gamma$-convergence results, energy and density estimates, convergence of level sets,…

We analyze a family of non-local integral functionals of convolution-type depending on two small positive parameters $\varepsilon,\delta$: the first rules the length-scale of the non-local interactions and produces a `localization' effect…

We study Carrollian limits of Schwarzschild-AdS black-hole thermodynamics using covariant phase space. Allowing the cosmological constant to vary, we derive the extended Iyer-Wald identity and identify the renormalized bulk term…

In this paper, we study the relation between the second inner variations of the Allen-Cahn functional and its Gamma-limit, the area functional. Our result implies that the Allen-Cahn functional only approximates well the area functional up…

We consider a variant of the sticky disk energy where distances between particles are evaluated through the sup norm $\lVert\cdot\rVert_\infty$ in the plane. We first prove crystallization of minimizers in the square lattice, for any fixed…

In this paper, we obtain an explicit formula for the discrepancy between the limit of the second inner variations of $p$-Laplace Allen-Cahn energies and the second inner variation of their $\Gamma$-limit which is the area functional. Our…

We consider bounded solutions of the nonlocal Allen-Cahn equation $$ (-\Delta)^s u=u-u^3\qquad{\mbox{ in }}{\mathbb{R}}^3,$$ under the monotonicity condition $\partial_{x_3}u>0$ and in the genuinely nonlocal regime in…

This paper addresses the asymptotic development of order 2 by the $\Gamma$ -convergence of the Cahn-Hilliard functional with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The Dirichlet data are assumed to be well separated from one of the two wells. In…
