Path Laplacians versus fractional Laplacians as nonlocal operators on networks
Here we study and compare nonlocal diffusion processes on networks based on two different kinds of Laplacian operators. We prove that a nonlocal diffusion process on a network based on the path Laplacian operator always converges faster than the standard

Formulation, analysis and computation of an optimization-based local-to-nonlocal coupling method
We present an optimization-based coupling method for local and nonlocal continuum models. Our approach couches the coupling of the models into a control problem where the states are the solutions of the nonlocal and local equations, the objective is to ...

A Review of Local-to-Nonlocal Coupling Methods in Nonlocal Diffusion and Nonlocal Mechanics [PDF]
Local-to-Nonlocal (LtN) coupling refers to a class of methods aimed at combining nonlocal and local modeling descriptions of a given system into a unified coupled representation. This allows to consolidate the accuracy of nonlocal models with the computational expediency of their local counterparts, while often simultaneously removing additional ...

Nonlocal diffusion equations in Carnot groups
Let $G$ be a Carnot group. We study nonlocal diffusion equations in a domain $ $ of $G$ of the form $$ u_t^ (x,t)=\int_{G}\frac{1}{ ^2}K_ (x,y)(u^ (y,t)-u^ (x,t))\,dy, \qquad x\in $$ with $u^ =g(x,t)$ for $x\notin $. For appropriate rescaled kernel $K_ $ we prove that solutions $u^ $, when $ \rightarrow0$, uniformly approximate the ...

Nonlocal Diffusion and Applications [PDF]
Working in the fractional Laplace framework, this book provides models and theorems related to nonlocal diffusion phenomena. In addition to a simple probabilistic interpretation, some applications to water waves, crystal dislocations, nonlocal phase transitions, nonlocal minimal surfaces and Schrödinger equations are given.

Effective nonlocal kernels on reaction–diffusion networks
A new method to derive an essential integral kernel from any given reaction-diffusion network is proposed. Any network describing metabolites or signals with arbitrary many factors can be reduced to a single or a simpler system of integro-differential equations called "effective equation" including the reduced integral kernel (called "effective kernel"

Propagation and reaction–diffusion models with free boundaries
In this short survey, we describe some recent developments on the modeling of propagation by reaction-differential equations with free boundaries, which involve local as well as nonlocal diffusion.

A local/nonlocal diffusion model [PDF]
In this paper, we study some qualitative properties for an evolution problem that combines local and nonlocal diffusion operators acting in two different subdomains and, coupled in such a way that, the resulting evolution problem is the gradient flow of an energy functional.

A Strong Maximum Principle for Nonlinear Nonlocal Diffusion Equations
We consider a class of nonlinear integro-differential equations that model degenerate nonlocal diffusion. We investigate whether the strong maximum principle is valid for this nonlocal equation. For degenerate parabolic PDEs, the strong maximum principle

A logistic equation with nonlocal interactions [PDF]
We consider here a logistic equation, modeling processes of nonlocal character both in the diffusion and proliferation terms. More precisely, for populations that propagate according to a L\'evy process and can reach resources in a neighborhood of ...
