Abstract

H-measures and semiclassical (Wigner) measures were introduced in early 1990 s and since then they have found numerous applications in problems involving \(\textrm{L}^2\) weakly converging sequences. Although they are similar objects, neither of them is a generalisation of the other, the fundamental difference between them being the fact that semiclassical measures have a characteristic length, while H-measures have none. Recently introduced objects, the one-scale H-measures, generalise both of them, thus encompassing properties of both. The main aim of this paper is to fully develop this theory to the \(\textrm{L}^p\) setting, \(p\in (1,\infty )\), by constructing one-scale H-distributions, a generalisation of one-scale H-measures and, at the same time, of H-distributions, a generalisation of H-measures to the \(\textrm{L}^p\) setting. We also address an alternative approach to \(\textrm{L}^p\) extension of semiclassical measures via the Wigner transform, introducing new type of objects (semiclassical distributions). Furthermore, we derive a localisation principle in a rather general form, suitable for problems with a characteristic length, as well as those not involving a specific characteristic length, providing some applications.
