“…In fact, nonlocal operators embed length scales in their definitions and allow for irregular functions. For these reasons, nonlocal models are currently employed in several scientific and engineering applications including surface or subsurface transport [1,2,3,4,5,6], fracture mechanics [7,8,9], turbulence [10,11,12], image processing [13,14,15] and stochastic processes [16,17,18,19,20].…”
