Introduction to Gamma Convergence
Motivation
Let $(X,d)$ be a metric space, $F, F_n: X\to \overline{\mathbb{R}}, n=1,2,\cdots$ be functionals, suppose that $x_n\in X$ minimizes $F_n$ for each $n=1,2,\cdots$, does $\lim\limits_{n\to\infty} x_n$ (if it exists) minimize any functional $F$? And in what sense does $F_n$ converge to $F$ ensure the minimizer of $F_n$ converges to minimizer of $F$?
