Relationship between continuous vector fields and divergence measure fields in dimension $\ge 2$
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^d$ with $d \geq 2$ (I am mostly interested in the case when $\Omega$ is the unit ball). A vector field in $L^p(\Omega,\mathbb R^d)$ is called a divergence measure field ...

Inequality concerning BV norm
Let $u(x) \in L^1( \mathbb{R}^n) \cap BV(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and let $\rho\ge 0$ be the standard mollifier on $\mathbb{R}^d$, supported in unit ball with $\int_{\mathbb{R}^d}\rho \,dx=1$ and define $\rho_\...

Pointwise a.e. formulation of parabolic PDE, what if null set depends on test function?
Let $u \in L^2(0,T;V)$ with $u_t \in L^2(0,T;V^*)$ be a solution of
$$\langle u_t(t), v \rangle + a(t;u(t), v) = \langle f(t), v \rangle$$
where $f \in L^2(0,T;V^*)$ and we have the usual assumptions ...

Nemytskij operator for Lebesgue variable UNBOUNDED exponent spaces
Let $f:\Omega\times\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Caratheodory function (i.e. $f(x,\cdot)$ is continuous for a.a. $x\in\Omega$ and $f(\cdot,t)$ is measurable for all $t\in\mathbb{R}$), where $\Omega\...

$\int_{\mathbb{R}^{N}\setminus\Omega}\vert x-z\vert^{-N-\alpha} dz = c \ \forall x\in\partial U$ implies $dist(x,\partial\Omega)=c, x \in \partial U$?
Let $\alpha \in \mathbb R_+$, $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^N$ and $U \subset \Omega$. Is it true that if
$$\int_{\mathbb R^N \setminus \Omega} |x - z|^{-N-\alpha} dz = \text{constant} \quad \text{for all ...

Showing that for measurable $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, $L^1(\Omega; C_0(\mathbb{R}^n))$ is separable
Here we're integrating "Banach-valued" functions $u: \Omega \rightarrow C_0(\mathbb{R}^n))$ , and by $u \in L^1(\Omega; C_0(\mathbb{R}^n))$ I mean that
$$\int_{x \in \Omega} \| u(x) \|_{\...

A question about Stroock's notes on the Weyl lemma
On p.4 of these notes, D. Stroock gives a quick and efficient construction of the Markov transition functions of a certain diffusion. The idea of his construction (on page 4) is to 'freeze' the ...

Alberti rank-one theorem and reduction of the study of BV function to the two-dimensional case
By Alberti rank-one theorem, could it be possible to reduce the study of a function $u \in BV(\mathbb{R}^N, \mathbb{R}^N)$ to the study of a function $\tilde{u} \in BV(\mathbb{R}^2, \mathbb{R}^2)$? At ...

Measurable selection for the mean value theorem
When we use the mean value theorem we come across the problem of measurability of the argument. The problem is somehow like that:
Let $f:\Omega\times [0,1]\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Caratheodory function (i....
