Nov 10, 2023 at 22:46 comment added Giorgio Metafune In 1d let $A=\{f\neq 0\} =\cup (a_n,b_n)$ and for a test function $\phi$, $\int u\phi'=\int_A u\phi'=\sum_n \int_{a_n}^{b_n} u\phi'=-\sum_n \int_{a_n}^{b_n} u'\phi=-\int_A u' \phi$, since $u(a_n)=u(b_n)=0$. In 2d it should follow from this and a sectional argument...and so on (I admit that I did not check all details).

Nov 10, 2023 at 20:23 comment added No-one @leomonsaingeon You are right the question didn't make sense as it was written, I was missing two crucial hypothesis (continuity and that I already know that the weak derivative exists outside $\{f=0\})$! I have now edited, thanks for pointing it out.

Nov 10, 2023 at 20:14 comment added leo monsaingeon A perhaps naive question: what do you mean by $Df\mathbb 1_{f\neq 0}$? Unless I am mistaken $Df$ is the weak derivative, which is a distribution. What is the meaning of multiplying the distribution $Df\in\mathcal D'(B_1)$ by the (posisbly) nonsmooth function $\mathbb 1_{f\neq 0}(x)$? The answer is: nothing, this is not well-defined. Unless of course you already know that $Df$ is actually a function, but then this is actually your claim somehow (if you knew already that $Df\in L^p(B_1)$ for some $p$ you would be done by standard properties of Sobolev functions)
Nov 10, 2023 at 20:13 comment added Iosif Pinelis How is $B_1$ defined?
