Abstract
We study the general form of the limit, in the sense of Γ-convergence, of a sequence of nonlinear variational problems in varying domains with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The asymptotic problem is characterized in terms of the limit of suitable nonlinear capacities associated to the domains.
