Role of absolute continuity of divergence of BV function in proof of renormalization property
In the paper http://cvgmt.sns.it/paper/436/, the author proves the renormalization property for the flow generated by a vector field $a(t,\cdot) \in BV(\mathbb{R}^N; \mathbb{R}^N)$.
Heuristically, ...

Applications of measure, integration and Banach spaces to combinatorics
I'm going to be teaching a Master's level analysis course (measure theory, Lebesgue integration, Banach and Hilbert spaces, and if there's time, some spectral or PDE stuff) in the fall. My problem is ...

A result of Sierpiński on non-atomic measures
There is a classical result commonly attributed to W. Sierpiński that reads as follows:
Theorem 1. If $f: \Sigma \to \bf R$ is a non-atomic (*) measure on a set $S$, then for every $X \in \Sigma$ ...

Flow of ODE with monotone source
Let $\Phi$ be the flow (defined as in page 6 of this paper) of the ODE
$$\begin{cases}
\frac{d}{dt}\Phi(x,t) = f(\Phi(x,t),t) \quad t >0 \\
\Phi(x,0) = x \quad x \in \mathbb{R}.
\end{cases}$$
Is ...

Convergence of the difference quotient of a BV function
Consider a BV function $u \in BV(\mathbb{R}^N; \mathbb{R}^N)$.
What can be said about the difference quotient
$$
\frac{u(x+\epsilon y)-u(x)}{\epsilon}
$$
regarding its convergence as $\epsilon \to 0$...

Growth assumption and example of finite (arbitrarily small) time blow up for ODE
Consider the following ODE initial value problem
\begin{align*}
&\frac{d}{dt}\Phi(t,x) = \boldsymbol{F}(t,\Phi(t,x)), & t \in [0,T], \ \ x \in \mathbb{R}^N,\\
&\Phi(0,x) = x, & x \in \...

$L^p$ compactness for a sequence of functions from compactness of product with cut-off
Fix $p \in [1,\infty)$. Let $f_n:[a,b] \to \mathbb R$, $n \in \mathbb N$, be a sequence of $C^1$ functions. For every fixed $m\in \mathbb N^*$, suppose that the sequence of functions $$\{f_{n}\psi_m(...
