We consider the problem of the homogenization of non-local quadratic energies defined on $\delta$-periodic disconnected sets defined by a double integral, depending on a kernel concentrated at scale $\varepsilon$. For kernels with unbounded…

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…
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 prove a homogenization result in terms of two-scale Young measures for non-local integral functionals. The result is obtained by means of a characterization of two-scale Young measures.
Multiscale periodic homogenization is extended to an Orlicz-Sobolev setting. It is shown by the reiteraded periodic two-scale convergence method that the sequence of minimizers of a class of highly oscillatory minimizations problems…
