Abstract
- In this work, we demonstrate that a functional modeling the self-aggregation of stochastically distributed lipid molecules can be obtained as the $\Gamma$-limit of a family of discrete energies driven by a sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables. These random variables are intended to describe the asymptotic behavior of lipid molecules that satisfy an incompressibility condition. The discrete energy keeps into account the interactions between particles. We resort to transportation maps to compare functionals defined on discrete and continuous domains, and we prove that, under suitable conditions on the scaling of these maps as the number of random variables increases, the limit functional features an interfacial term with a Wasserstein-type penalization.
