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?

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 (...

Concrete example of BV function $u:\mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ with singular derivative
What are examples of two BV functions $u:\mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}$ with singular derivative?
More precisely, I'd like to see an example (and a plot using Mathematica or Matlab) of
a function

"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 ...

The distributional gradient of the closest isometry to the differential of a smooth map
The setting-a "linear algebra" fact:
Let $A$ be a real $n \times n$ matrix, and suppose that $\det A<0$ and that the singular values of $A$ are distinct. Then, there exist a unique matrix $Q(A) \...
