Pagliari: Limiting behaviour of rescaled nonlocal perimeters and of their first variations

Pagliari:
We introduce a class of integral functionals known as nonlocal
perimeters, which can be thought as interactions between a set and its
complement that are weighted by a positive kernel. In the first part of
the talk, we summarise the main features of these functionals and then
we study the asymptotic behaviour of the family associated with
mass-preserving rescalings of a given kernel. Namely, we prove that when
the scaling parameter approaches $0$, the rescaled non local perimeters
$Gamma$-converge to De Giorgi's perimeter, up to a multiplicative
constant. In the second part of the talk, we show that a similar result
holds for nonlocal curvatures, i.e. for the first variations of the
nonlocal perimeters; time permitting, we shall hint at possible
applications of this to dislocation dynamics.
