We give a counterexample showing that a corresponding representation may not hold if we consider analogous functionals in W1,p0 pΩq, with p ‰ 2 and 1 ă p ď d.enΓ-convergenceDirichlet formsnon-local functionalsintegral representationValidity and failure of the integral representation of Γ-limits of convex non-local functionalsPreprint
