Abstract

A finite-dimensional RCD{\sf RCD} space can be foliated into sufficiently regular leaves, where a differential calculus can be performed. Two important examples are given by the measure-theoretic boundary of the superlevel set of a function of bounded variation and the needle decomposition associated to a Lipschitz function. The aim of this paper is to connect the vector calculus on the lower dimensional leaves with the one on the base space. In order to achieve this goal, we develop a general theory of integration of L0L^0-Banach L0L^0-modules of independent interest. Roughly speaking, we study how to `patch together' vector fields defined on the leaves that are measurable with respect to the foliation parameter.
