Abstract

AbstractIn this paper we consider the Euclidean Steiner tree problem and, more generally, (single sink) Gilbert–Steiner problems as prototypical examples of variational problems involving 1-dimensional connected sets in ℝn{\mathbb{R}^{n}}. Following the analysis for the planar case presented in [M. Bonafini, G. Orlandi and E. Oudet, Variational approximation of functionals defined on 1-dimensional connected sets: The planar case, SIAM J. Math. Anal. 50 2018, 6, 6307–6332], we provide a variational approximation through Ginzburg–Landau type energies proving a Γ-convergence result for n≥3{n\geq 3}.
