Local minimizers and gamma-convergence for nonlocal perimeters in Carnot groups

On local gamma factors for orthogonal groups and unitary groups

‎In this paper‎, ‎we find a relation between the proportionality factors which arise from the functional equations of two families of local Rankin-Selberg convolutions for‎ ‎irreducible admissible representations of orthogonal groups‎, ‎or unitary groups‎. ‎One family is that of local integrals of the doubling method‎, ‎and the other family is‎ ‎that of local integrals expressed in terms of sph...

Homogenization and Convergence of Correctors in Carnot Groups

Γ-convergence for Stable States and Local Minimizers

We introduce new definitions of convergence, based on adding stability criteria to Γ-convergence, that are suitable in many cases for studying convergence of local minimizers.

Regularity of Minimizers of Quasi Perimeters with a Volume Constraint

In this article, we study the regularity of the boundary of sets minimizing a quasi perimeter T (E) = P (E,Ω) + G (E) with a volume constraint. Here Ω is any open subset of Rn with n ≥ 2, G is a lower semicontinuous function on sets of finite perimeter satisfying a condition that G (E) ≤ G (F ) + C |E∆F | among all sets of finite perimeter with equal volume. We show that under the condition β >...

Isodiametric Inequality in Carnot Groups

The classical isodiametric inequality in the Euclidean space says that balls maximize the volume among all sets with a given diameter. We consider in this paper the case of Carnot groups. We prove that for any Carnot group equipped with a Haar measure one can find a homogeneous distance for which this fails to hold. We also consider Carnot-Carathéodory distances and prove that this also fails f...
