A Variational Theory of Convolution-Type Functionals
This book provides a general treatment of a class of functionals modelled on convolution energies with kernel having finite p-moments. A general asymptotic analysis of such non-local functionals is performed, via Gamma-convergence, in order to show that the limit may be a local functional representable as an integral. Energies of this form are encountered in many different contexts and the interest in building up a general theory is also motivated by the multiple interests in applications (e.g. peridynamics theory, population dynamics phenomena and data science). The results obtained are applied to periodic and stochastic homogenization, perforated domains, gradient flows, and point-clouds models. This book is mainly intended for mathematical analysts and applied mathematicians who are also interested in exploring further applications of the theory to pass from a non-local to a local description, both in static problems and in dynamic problems.
Thermodynamics And Kinetic Theory - Proceedings Of The 5th Bilateral Polish-italian Meeting
This book gives a comprehensive review of the current status of the theory of the pion-two-nucleon systems at intermediate energies. It also makes an extensive comparison of the theoretical prediction with the corresponding data obtained recently from the major meson factories.
Geometric and Analytic Aspects of Functional Variational Principles
This book is dedicated to exploring optimization problems of geometric-analytic nature, which are fundamental to tackling various unresolved questions in mathematics and physics. These problems revolve around minimizing geometric or analytic quantities, often representing physical energies, within prescribed collections of sets or functions. They serve as catalysts for advancing methodologies in calculus of variations, partial differential equations, and geometric analysis. Furthermore, insights from optimal functional-geometric inequalities enhance analytical problem-solving endeavors. The contributions focus on the intricate interplay between these inequalities and problems of differential and variational nature. Key topics include functional and geometric inequalities, optimal norms, sharp constants in Sobolev-type inequalities, and the regularity of solutions to variational problems. Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of these concepts, deepening their appreciation for their relevance in mathematical and physical inquiries.
