We consider the limit of squared $H^s$-Gagliardo seminorms on thin domains of the form $\Omega_\varepsilon=\omega\times(0,\varepsilon)$ in $\mathbb R^d$. When $\varepsilon$ is fixed, multiplying by $1-s$ such seminorms have been proved to…
We study the behaviour of fractional Sobolev spaces $H^s(\Omega_\varepsilon)$ with $s\in(0,1/2)$ defined on ``thin films'' $\Omega_\varepsilon=\omega\times (0,\varepsilon)$ in $\mathbb R^d$, and prove that they tend to the space…
We propose a systematic Gagliardo-type formulation of fractional Sobolev spaces on arbitrary time scales, based on the Lebesgue Delta-measure and the off-diagonal interaction domain induced by the product measure. For fractional orders…
This paper deals with the limit cases for $s$-fractional heat flows in a cylindrical domain, with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions, as $s\to 0^+$ and $s\to 1^-$\,. To this purpose, we describe the fractional heat flows as…
We consider the limit of sequences of normalized $(s,2)$-Gagliardo seminorms with an oscillating coefficient as $s\to 1$. In a seminal paper by Bourgain, Brezis and Mironescu (subsequently extended by Ponce) it is proven that if the…
We analyze the behaviour of double-well energies perturbed by fractional Gagliardo squared seminorms in $H^s$ close to the critical exponent $s=\frac12$. This is done by computing a scaling factor $\lambda(\varepsilon,s)$, continuous in…

Despite the formal analogy with the Higgs particle, the amplitude fluctuations of the order parameter in weakly-coupled superconductors do not identify a real mode with a Lorentz-invariant dynamics. Indeed, its resonance occurs at…
We analyze the asymptotic behavior of a multiscale problem given by a sequence of integral functionals subject to differential constraints conveyed by a constant-rank operator with two characteristic length scales, namely the film thickness…
We study dimension reduction for the three-dimensional Gross-Pitaevskii equation with a long-range and anisotropic dipole-dipole interaction modeling dipolar Bose-Einstein condensation in a strong interaction regime. The cases of disk…
In this paper we consider a family of non local functionals of convolution-type depending on a small parameter $\varepsilon>0$ and $\Gamma$-converging to local functionals defined on Sobolev spaces as $\varepsilon\to 0$. We study the…
In this paper, we introduce a nonlocal, variational model for thin films. We consider convolution-type functionals defined on a thin domain whose thickness is of order $\gamma$, where the effective interactions range between points is of…
We study the limit behavior of Cahn--Hilliard-type functionals in which the derivative is replaced by higher-order fractional derivatives and modulated by an oscillating factor. Depending on the ratio between the oscillation scale and the…
Reduction in effective spacetime dimensionality can occur in field-theory models more general than the widely studied dimensional reductions based on technically consistent truncations. Situations where wavefunction factors depend…
We are concerned with the dimension reduction analysis for thin three-dimensional elastic films, prestrained via Riemannian metrics with weak curvatures. For the prestrain inducing the incompatible version of the F\"oppl-von K\'arm\'an…

This paper is concerned with the study of linear geometric rigidity of shallow thin domains under zero Dirichlet boundary conditions on the displacement field on the thin edge of the domain. A shallow thin domain is a thin domain that has…
Quasiperiodic systems offer an appealing intermediate between long-range ordered and genuine disordered systems, with unusual critical properties. One-dimensional models that break the so-called self-dual symmetry usually display a mobility…
We study the distortion of intermediate dimension under supercritical Sobolev mappings and also under quasiconformal or quasisymmetric homeomorphisms. In particular, we extend to the setting of intermediate dimensions both the…
