Abstract: In this note we prove that appropriately scaled threshold dynamics-type algorithms corresponding to the fractional Laplacian of order $alphain(0,2)$ converge to moving fronts. When $alphageqq1$ the resulting interface moves by weighted mean curvature, while for $alpha<1$ the normal velocity is nonlocal of ``fractional-type. The results easily extend to general nonlocal anisotropic threshold dynamics schemes.
