Abstract

We prove a Γ-convergence result for the family of functionals defined on H 1(Ω,;) by Jε(φ)=∫Ω, ;(ε|∇φ|2+1/ε|u(x)-eiφ|2p)dx, ∀ε > 0, for a given u ∈ BV(Ω,S1) and a parameter p ∈ [1,∞) . We show that in either of the two cases, p = 2 or u ∈ W 1,1(Ω,;,S1, any limit of the minimizers is an optimal lifting.
