How can we calculate the Euler-lagrange equations?

In this paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/1907.09605.pdf \ let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ with $n \geq 1$ be a bounded Lipschitz domain with boundary $\partial \Omega$, $f: \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ ...

Arens regularity of $\mathrm{BV}(\mathbb{R})$

$\DeclareMathOperator\BV{BV}$A Banach algebra $A$ is called Arens regular if the two canonical multiplications on the double dual $A^{**}$ coincide. Let $\BV(\mathbb{R})$ denote the Banach algebra of ...

Generalization of a bounded variation

Let $(X, d)$ be a metric space. We will say that $\gamma \colon [a,b] \to X$ is of bounded variation, if \begin{equation} V(\gamma) = \sup_{a=t_0 < \cdots < t_n < b} \sum_{i=1}^n d( \gamma(...

Status of the Bressan conjecture

Let me first recall what is the Bressan conjecture. Take a $BV\cap L^\infty$ vector field $X$ on some open subset of $\mathbb R^n$ such that there exists an $L^\infty$ function $\alpha\ge 1$ so that $ ...

If a derivative is defined everywhere and $\pm1$ almost everywhere, is it constant?

Let $f:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a differentiable function such that the set $A:=\{x\in\mathbb{R};f'(x)\not\in\{1,-1\}\}$ has measure $0$. Does this imply that $f'$ is constant? Context: I was ...

What happens if we consider functions of bounded variation that are not in $L^1$?

A function $f \in L^1(\mathbb R^n)$ is said to be of bounded variation if there exists a constant $C \geq 0$ such that $$ \int_{\mathbb R^n} f(x) \operatorname{div} \phi(x) \; dx \leq C \sup_{ x \in \...

The dual of $\mathrm{BV}$

$\DeclareMathOperator\BV{BV}\DeclareMathOperator\SBV{SBV}$I'm going to let $\BV := \BV(\mathbb{R}^d)$ denote the space of functions of bounded variation on $\mathbb{R}^d$. My question concerns the ...
