Asymptotic Behavior of Allen-Cahn Type Energies and Neumann Eigenvalues via Inner Variations
Nam Q. Le, Peter Sternberg
We use the notion of first and second inner variations as a bridge allowing one to pass to the limit of first and second Gateaux variations for the Allen-Cahn, Cahn-Hilliard and Oh…
