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 ...

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; \...

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 ...

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 $...

"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 ...

Partially BV vector fields and renormalization
Why does the approach used to prove Theorem 4.1 in the paper by Le Bris and Lions on Renormalized solutions of some transport equations with partially $W^{1,1}$ velocities and applications not work ...

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 (...

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?
