Vector measures as metric currents
Currents in metric spaces were introduced by Ambrosio and Kirchheim in 2000 as a generalization of currents in euclidean spaces. Very roughly, a principle idea is to replace smooth test functions (and ...

Distribution of the support function of convex bodies: beyond mean width
Let $K$ be a symmetric convex body in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (that is the unit ball of a norm). Let $h_K$ be its support function, that is $h_K(u) = \sup_{x \in K}\langle x,u \rangle$. The quantity $w(K) = \...

Metric on space of Borel-measurable functions
Let $(X,d_X),(Y,d_Y)$ be metric spaces and $X$ is locally-compact and fix a Borel probability measure $\nu$ on $X$. For any Borel-measurable $f:X\rightarrow Y$, let $\mathcal{K}(f,\delta)$ be the set ...

Sets of finite perimeter: intersection with an half space
I have a question regarding sets of finite perimeter. In particular I'm interested to find
$$\mu_{E \cap H_t}, \label{1}\tag{1}$$
where $E$ is a set of finite perimeter in a generic open set $\Omega \...

Concrete description of lift in Arens-Eells space
Let $X$ be a compact pointed metric subspace of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space $(\mathbb{R}^d,d_E)$ and let $AE(X)$ denote its Arens-Eells space. Then a result of Nik Weaver shows that for every ...

Invariance under diffeomorphisms of the Hajlasz-Sobolev spaces
In this post it was shown that if $\Omega$ and $\Omega'$ are diffeomorphic non-empty open domains in some Euclidean space then the corresponding local Sobolev spaces are diffeomorphic with ...

Flat norm metrizes the weak* topology
I've come across the following statement in literature (without proof or reference) about the flat norm of currents
$$
F(T) = \sup \{ T(\omega) : \omega \in D^k(U), |\omega(x)| \leq 1, |d\omega(x)| \...

Existence of a measurable map between metric spaces
Let $X$ and $Y$ be separable complete metric spaces (if necessary, they may be assumed to be compact). Let $R\subset X\times Y$ be a closed subset such that the projection of $R$ to $X$ is onto.
Is ...
