The self-interaction force of dislocation curves in metals depends on the local arrangement of the atoms and on the nonlocal interaction between dislocation curve segments. While these nonlocal segment-segment interactions can be accurately…
Machine learning models can represent climate processes that are nonlocal in horizontal space, height, and time, often by combining information across these dimensions in highly nonlinear ways. While this can improve predictive skill, it…

Nonlocal models provide accurate representations of physical phenomena ranging from fracture mechanics to complex subsurface flows, where traditional partial differential equations fail to capture effects caused by long-range forces at the…
Limit cycle oscillations are phenomena arising in nonlinear dynamical systems and characterized by periodic, locally-stable, and self-sustained state trajectories. Systems controlled in a closed loop along a periodic trajectory can also be…

Linear complexions are stable defect states, where the stress field associated with a dislocation induces a local phase transformation that remains restricted to nanoscale dimensions. As these complexions are born at the defects which…

Cosmological perturbation theory relies on the decomposition of perturbations into so-called scalar, vector and tensor modes. This decomposition is non-local and depends on unknowable boundary conditions. The non-locality is particularly…

Modern Bayesian optimization and adaptive sampling methods increasingly rely on nonlinear parametric models, yet theoretical guarantees for such models under adaptive data collection remain limited. Existing analyses largely focus on…
The nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equation provides a natural extension of the classical model for phase separation by incorporating long-range interactions through a singular convolution kernel. While this formulation admits a rich existence and…
Building spatial process models that capture nonstationary behavior while delivering computationally efficient inference is challenging. Nonstationary spatially varying kernels (see, e.g., Paciorek, 2003) offer flexibility and richness, but…
