The classical Rellich inequalities imply that the $L^2$-norms of the normal and tangential derivatives of a harmonic function are equivalent. In this note, we prove several refined inequalities, which make sense even if the domain is not…

Total variation (TV) regularization is a classical tool for image denoising, but its convex $\ell_1$ formulation often leads to staircase artifacts and loss of contrast. To address these issues, we introduce the Transformed $\ell_1$ (TL1)…
