5 O ct 1 99 7 VARIATIONAL EVOLUTION PROBLEMS AND NONLOCAL GEOMETRIC MOTION
We consider two variational evolution problems related to MongeKantorovich mass transfer. These problems provide models for collapsing sandpiles and for compression molding. We prove the following connection between these problems and nonlocal geometric curvature motion: The distance functions to surfaces moving according to certain nonlocal geometric laws are solutions of the variational evolu...
متن کاملExistence for Nonlocal Variational Problems in Peridynamics
We present an existence theory based on minimization of the nonlocal energies appearing in peridynamics, which is a nonlocal continuum model in solid mechanics that avoids the use of deformation gradients. We employ the direct method of the calculus of variations in order to find minimizers of the energy of a deformation. Lower semicontinuity is proved under a weaker condition than convexity, w...
متن کاملVariational theory and domain decomposition for nonlocal problems
In this article we present the first results on domain decomposition methods for nonlocal operators. We present a nonlocal variational formulation for these operators and establish the well-posedness of associated boundary value problems, proving a nonlocal Poincaré inequality. To determine the conditioning of the discretized operator, we prove a spectral equivalence which leads to a mesh size ...
متن کاملHeterogeneously Localized Nonlocal Operators, Boundary Traces and Variational Problems
It is a classical result of Sobolev spaces that any H function has a well-defined H trace on the boundary of a sufficient regular domain. We discuss its recent extensions given in [45] in some heterogeneously localized nonlocal function spaces. The new trace theorems are stronger and more general than the classical result. They can be established essentially for all functions having only square...
متن کاملNonlocal Impulsive Cauchy Problems for Evolution Equations
Of concern is the existence of solutions to nonlocal impulsive Cauchy problems for evolution equations. Combining the techniques of operator semigroups, approximate solutions, noncompact measures and the fixed point theory, new existence theorems are obtained, which generalize and improve some previous results since neither the Lipschitz continuity nor compactness assumption on the impulsive fu...
