Visualization of the disintegration theorem [closed]

Where can I find a picture that gives a visualization of the disintegration theorem? If such reference does not exist, what would a nice visualization of this fundamental result look like?

Alberti rank one theorem and a blow-up argument

In this paper, it is written that Alberti’s rank says that the singular part $D^s u$ with respect to $\mathcal L^d$ of the distributional derivative $Du$ of a function $u \in BV_{loc}(\mathbb R^d; \...

Is there a function $u \in BV_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ such that $Du$ is an $s$-dimensional Hausdorff measure restricted to the Koch curve?

Motivated by my previous question Alberti rank-one theorem and irregular jump discontinuities, I'd like to ask the following: Is there a function $u \in BV_{loc}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ such that $Du$ is an ...

Alberti rank-one theorem and irregular jump discontinuities

Is it fair to say that Alberti rank one theorem means that a BV functions $u \in BV(\mathbb{R}^2)$ has $Du = D^{cantor}u$ if and only if it has a jump discontinuity across a curve that is not smooth (...

"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 ...

Heuristic and graphic representation of BV functions and their singularities

This question is about some heuristics and graphs of BV functions. In 1-dimensional setting, two key examples of $BV$ functions $u: \mathbb R \to \mathbb R$ are the Heaviside function, whose ...

Category theory & geometric measure theory?

My background is essentially Geometric Measure Theory and its application to partial differential equations (e.g. linear and non-linear hyperbolic conservation laws). These are currently my research ...

Lusin Lipschitz approximation in BV and Sobolev space

Theorem 5.34 in Functions of bounded variation by L. Ambrosio, N. Fusco and D. Pallara states that Let $u \in [BV(\mathbb{R}^N)]^m$. Then there exists a constant $\kappa>0$ such that for every $...
