Concrete example of BV function $u:\mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ with singular derivative
What are examples of two BV functions $u:\mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ with singular derivative?
More precisely, I'd like to see an example (and a plot using Mathematica or Matlab) of
a function

Prove that the flow of a divergence-free vector field is measure preserving
On page 3 of this preprint, after recalling the definition of flow generated by a vector field, the authors remark that "a necessary condition for a flow $\varphi_t(\cdot)$ generated by $a(t, \cdot)$ ...

Explicit extension of Lipschitz function (Kirszbraun theorem)
Kirszbraun theorem states that if $U$ is a subset of some Hilbert space $H_1$, and $H_2$ is another Hilbert space, and $f : U \to H_2$ is a Lipschitz-continuous map, then $f$ can be extended to a ...

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 \...
