Domains of type (A) are Lipschitz?
In this article and in the book of Ladyzhenskaya et al (1968) - Linear and Quasilinear Elliptic Equations we have the following definition of what is a domain of type (A):
There is no example of a ...

Higher (BV) regularity of solutions to Poisson equation with Radon measure right-hand side?
I am trying to understand higher regularity for solutions to Poisson's equation when the right-hand side is a Radon measure. In particular:
$$\begin{cases}
\Delta u = \mu \text{ in } \Omega\\
u = 0\...

On the existence of a complicated fractal-like set of finite perimeter
Let $f\in BV(\Bbb R^n)$ be an integer-valued function that maps into $\{0, 1\}$ and is identically $0$ outside some bounded set in $\Bbb R^n$. In particular, $f$ determines a bounded Caccioppoli set $...

Regular Lagrangian flow for explicit ODE with discontinuous right-hand side
Consider the problem
$$(\star) \quad \begin{cases} \frac{d}{dt} X(t,x) = \begin{cases} - 1 & \text{ if } X(t,x) >0, \\
1 & \text{ if } X(t,x) < 0 \end{cases}, &t \in [0,T],\\
X(0,x) ...

Prove $\int_{\mathbb R^N \setminus \Omega} |x - z|^{-N-s} dz \approx dist(x,\partial \Omega)^{-s}$, $s \in (0,2)$
Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^N$ and $s \in (0,2)$. Under what assumptions on $\partial \Omega$ do we have
$$\int_{\mathbb R^N \setminus \Omega} |x - z|^{-N-s} dz \approx \mathrm{dist}(x,\partial \...

Equivalence of statements about level sets: $u|_{S \times [\tau, \infty)}$ depends only on $t$ $\iff$ $u(t,x) = \mu^{\tau}(t,u(\tau,x))$
Let $u:\mathbb R_+ \times \Omega \subset \mathbb R^N \to \mathbb R$ (sufficiently smooth). Are the following statements are equivalent?
For every $\tau >0$ and level surface $S$ of $u(\tau,\cdot)$,...

Averaging the mass of a Sobolev function $f\in W^{1,p}(\Omega)$ near $\partial\Omega$
Recently, I asked a somewhat related question here. In the comment section, I found the formula
$$
\lim_{r\to 0}\frac{1}{r}\int_{\Omega_r} f(x)\,dx = \int_{\partial \Omega}f(\sigma)\,d\mathcal{H}^{n-1}...

Estimating the size of $\Omega_r=\{x\in\Omega: \text{dist}(x,\partial\Omega)<r \}$
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in $\Bbb R^n$. Define
$$
\Omega_r=\{x\in\Omega: \text{dist}(x,\partial\Omega)<r \},
$$
i.e. it the ring of thickness $r$ at the boundary of $\Omega$. Intuitively, ...

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 ...

Meaning of Alberti rank-one theorem
Heuristically what does Alberti's rank-one theorem imply about the structure of a $\mathrm{BV}$ vector field $\boldsymbol{b}$?
Is it rigorously fair to say that the level lines of $\boldsymbol{b}$ ...
