Abstract: In this paper we study localization properties of the Riesz

s

-fractional gradient

D^{s} u

of a vectorial function

u

as

s e a r r o w 1

. The natural space to work with

s

-fractional gradients is the Bessel space

H^{s, p}

for

0 < s < 1

and

1 < p < i n f t y

. This space converges, in a precise sense, to the Sobolev space

W^{1, p}

when

s e a r r o w 1

. We prove that the

s

-fractional gradient

D^{s} u

of a function

u

in

W^{1, p}

converges strongly to the classical gradient

D u

. We also show a weak compactness result in

W^{1, p}

for sequences of functions

u_{s}

with bounded

L^{p}

norm of

D^{s} u_{s}

as

s e a r r o w 1

. Moreover, the weak convergence of

D^{s} u_{s}

in

L^{p}

implies the weak continuity of its minors, which allows us to prove a semicontinuity result of polyconvex functionals involving

s

-fractional gradients defined in

H^{s, p}

to their local counterparts defined in

W^{1, p}

. The full

G a m m a

-convergence of the functionals is achieved only for the case

p > n

.
