We study the pointwise convergence and the $\Gamma$-convergence of a family of non-local, non-convex functionals $\Lambda_\delta$ in $L^p(\Omega)$ for $p>1$. We show that the limits are multiples of $\int_{\Omega} |\nabla u|^p$. This is a…

We give a complete expansion, at any accuracy order, for the iterated convolution of a complex valued integrable sequence in one space dimension. The remainders are estimated sharply with generalized Gaussian bounds. The result applies in…
