Abstract: 
I will present some results giving the convergence of the spectrum of a family of nonlocal operators to the spectrum of the Laplacian as a parameter approaches zero. From this, with some effort caused by the fact that the nonlocal operator is bounded, we can
deduce bifurcation in a nonlocal Turing system and in a nonlocal Chafee-Infante problem.
