In the case of large but same order intercomponent and intracomponent coupling strengths, we prove $\\Gamma$-convergence to a perimeter minimisation functional with an inhomogeneous surface tension. We study the asymptotic behavior of the surface tension as the ratio between the intercomponent and intracomponent coupling strengths becomes very small or very large. We obtain as a consequence, symmetry breaking of the minimisers for the harmonic potential when this radio is sufficiently large.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v4", "updated": "2014-07-18T08:11:30.000Z", "comment": null, "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v5", "updated": "2014-09-02T08:05:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "sharp interface limit", "intracomponent coupling strengths", "surface tension", "double cahn-hilliard type functional" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1401.1727G" } } }
