In this note we prove the following theorem in any Carnot group of step two $\mathbb{G}$: \[ \underset{s\nearrow 1/2}{\lim} (1 - 2s) \mathfrak P_{H,s}(E) = \frac{4}{\sqrt π}\ \mathfrak P_H(E). \] Here, $\mathfrak P_H(E)$ represents the horizontal perimeter of a measurable set $E\subset \mathbb{G}$, whereas the nonlocal horizontal perimeter $\mathfrak P_{H,s}(E)$ is a heat based Besov seminorm. This result represents a dimensionless sub-Riemannian counterpart of a famous characterisation of Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu and Dávila.
We prove a Brezis-Bourgain-Mironescu type formula for a class of nonlocal magnetic spaces, which builds a bridge between a fractional magnetic operator recently introduced and the classical theory.
We prove a general magnetic Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu formula. In particular, after developing a theory of magnetic bounded variation functions, we prove the validity of the formula in this class.
We obtain a Bourgain-Brézis-Mironescu formula on the limit behaviour of a modified fractional Sobolev seminorm when $s\nearrow 1$, which is valid in arbitrary bounded domains. In the case of extension domains, we recover the classical result.
In this paper we prove Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu's type results (cf. \cite{BBM2001}) (BBM for short) for an energy functional which is strongly related to the fractional anisotropic p-Laplacian. We also provide with the analogous of Maz'ya-Shaposhnikova (see \cite{MS}) type results for these energies and finally we apply these results to analyze the stability of solutions to anisotropic fractional $p-$laplacian equations.
Following the seminal paper by Bourgain, Brezis and Mironescu, we focus on the asymptotic behavior of some nonlocal functionals that, for each $u\in L^2(\mathbb{R}^N)$, are defined as the double integrals of weighted, squared difference quotients of $u$. Given a family of weights $\{ρ_ε\}$, $ε\in (0,1)$, we devise sufficient and necessary conditions on $\{ρ_ε\}$ for the associated nonlocal functionals to converge as $ε\to 0$ to a variant of the Dirichlet integral. Finally, some comparison between our result and the existing literature is provided.
We establish a non-local integral difference quotient representation for symmetric gradient semi-norms in $BD(Ω)$ and $LD(Ω)$, which does not require the manipulation of distributional derivatives. Our representation extends the formulas for the symmetric gradient established by Mengesha for vector-fields in $W^{1,p}(Ω;\mathbb R^d)$, which are inspired by the gradient semi-norm formulas introduced by Bourgain, Brezis and Mironescu in $W^{1,p}(Ω)$ and by Dávila in $BV(Ω)$.
A nonlinear superposition operator $T_g$ related to a Borel measurable function $g:\ {\mathbb C}\to {\mathbb C}$ is defined via $T_g(f):=g\circ f$ for any complex-valued function $f$ on ${\mathbb R^n}$. This article is devoted to investigating the mapping properties of $T_g$ on a new BMO type space recently introduced by Bourgain, Brezis and Mironescu [J. Eur. Math. Soc. (JEMS) 17 (2015), 2083-2101], as well as its VMO and CMO type subspaces. Some sufficient and necessary conditions for the inclusion result and the continuity property of $T_g$ on these spaces are obtained.
We introduce a large class of concentrated $p$-Lévy integrable functions approximating the unity, which serves as the core tool from which we provide a nonlocal characterization of Sobolev spaces and the space of functions of bounded variation via nonlocal energies forms. It turns out that this nonlocal characterization is a necessary and sufficient criterion to define Sobolev spaces on domains satisfying the extension property. We also examine the general case where the extension property does not necessarily hold. In the latter case, we establish weak convergence of the nonlocal Radon measur…
We study a convergence result of Bourgain--Brezis--Mironescu (BBM) using Triebel-Lizorkin spaces. It is well known that as spaces $W^{s,p} = F^{s}_{p,p}$, and $H^{1,p} = F^{1}_{p,2}$. When $s\to 1$, the $F^{s}_{p,p}$ norm becomes the $F^{1}_{p,p}$ norm but BBM showed that the $W^{s,p}$ norm becomes the $H^{1,p} = F^{1}_{p,2}$ norm. Naively, for $p \neq 2$ this seems like a contradiction, but we resolve this by providing embeddings of $W^{s,p}$ into $F^{s}_{p,q}$ for $q \in \{p,2\}$ with sharp constants with respect to $s \in (0,1)$. As a consequence we obtain an $\mathbb{R}^N$-version of the B…

Bourgain et al.(2001) proved that for $p>1$ and smooth bounded domain $Ω\subseteq\mathbb{R}^N$, \begin{equation*} \lim\limits_{s\to1}(1-s)\iint \limits_{Ω\times Ω}\frac{\lvert f(x)-f(y) \rvert^p}{\lvert x-y \rvert^{N+sp}}dx dy=κ\int \limits_Ω\lvert \nabla f(x) \rvert^p dx \end{equation*} for all $f\in L^p(Ω)$. This gives a characterization of $W^{1,p}(Ω)$ by means of $W^{s,p}(Ω)$ seminorms only. For the case $p=1$, Dávila(2002) proved that when $Ω$ is a bounded domain with Lipschitz boundary, \begin{equation*} \lim\limits_{s\to1}(1-s)\iint \limits_{Ω\times Ω}\frac{\lvert f(x)-f(y) \rvert}{\lve…
In this article we define a class of fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces on Carnot groups and, in the spirit of the celebrated results of Bourgain-Brezis-Mironescu and of Maz'ya-Shaposhnikova, we study the asymptotic behavior of the Orlicz functionals when the fractional parameter goes to $1$ and $0$.
