چکیده
This note completely resolves the asymptotic development of order 2 by Γ-convergence of the mass-constrained Cahn–Hilliard functional, by showing that one of the critical assumptions of the authors’ previous work [10] is unnecessary.

Second-Order Γ-limit for the Cahn–Hilliard Functional
The goal of this paper is to solve a long standing open problem, namely, the asymptotic development of order 2 by Γ-convergence of the mass-constrained Cahn–Hilliard functional. This is achieved by introducing a novel rearrangement technique, which works without Dirichlet boundary conditions.
متن کاملAsymptotic Analysis of Second Order Nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard-Type Functionals
In this paper the study of a nonlocal second order Cahn–Hilliard-type singularly perturbed family of functions is undertaken. The kernels considered include those leading to Gagliardo fractional seminorms for gradients. Using Γ convergence the integral representation of the limit energy is characterized leading to an anisotropic surface energy on interfaces separating different phases.
متن کاملSome Asymptotic Results For Phase Transition Models
This thesis analyzes two types of phase transition models, namely the Cahn–Hilliard model and the Becker–Döring model. In the Cahn–Hilliard setting, this thesis establishes a second-order Γ-convergence result for the mass-constrained Cahn–Hilliard energy. This is obtained using a new variant of the Pòlya–Szegő inequality, along with some new regularity results for the isoperimetric function. Fo...
متن کاملHomogenization of Cahn – Hilliard - type equations via evolutionary Γ - convergence
In this paper we discuss two approaches to evolutionary Γ-convergence of gradient systems in Hilbert spaces. The formulation of the gradient system is based on two functionals, namely the energy functional and the dissipation potential, which allows us to employ Γ-convergence methods. In the first approach we consider families of uniformly convex energy functionals such that the limit passage o...
متن کاملThe existence of global attractor for a Cahn-Hilliard/Allen-Cahn equation
In this paper, we consider a Cahn-Hillard/Allen-Cahn equation. By using the semigroup and the classical existence theorem of global attractors, we give the existence of the global attractor in H^k(0
