"Almost" absolute continuity of derivative of BV function if ${\rm Tr}\,D_Sf = 0$

Let $f: \mathbb R^N \to \mathbb R^N$ be a $BV$ function. Suppose that $\mathrm{div} f$ is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure: $\operatorname{div} f \ll \mathcal L^N$. This ...

decreasing rearrangements: why the asymmetry of measure-preserving maps?

Ryff proved in 1970 that the decreasing rearrangement $f^*$ of a, say, continuous function $f:[0,1]\to\mathbb{R}$ admits a measure preserving map $\phi$ such that $f=f^*\circ\phi$. In general it is ...

Projection of BV function

Let $u \in [BV(\mathbb R^N)]^N$. We have $$D^{jump} u(x) = a(x) \otimes b(x)|D^{jump}u|,$$ where $a,b \in \mathbb S^{N-1}$. What is the projection of $D^{jump}u$ in the direction $a$? And how can ...

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 $\epsilon \to 0$...

Jacobian and Jacobian matrix of solutions of ODE with Sobolev vector field

Let $\Phi$ be the Lagrangian 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}^N \end{...

Initial-boundary value problem for transport equation with $W^{1,p}$ velocity

Let us consider $v:\mathbb R_+ \times \mathbb R \to \mathbb R_+$ such that $v \in L^1(0,\infty, W^{1,p}(\mathbb R))$ and the transport equation $$ \begin{cases} u_t + v(t,x) u_x = 0 \qquad & (...

Level sets of a BV function and its derivative

Given $u \in BV(\Omega; \mathbb{R}^M)$, where $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$, what is the relationship between its level sets and its distributional derivative $Db$? More specifically, does Alberti ...

When can an affine functional on the dual be represented as an element of a Banach space?

In Measures Which Agree on Balls by Hoffmann-Jørgenson, we are given a functional $\varphi: T(x_0)\to (-\infty, \infty]$, which is a lower semicontinuous, affine, Baire function on a subspace $T(x_0)$ ...
