In this paper we introduce a nonlinear version of the notion of Anzellotti's pairing between divergence--measure vector fields and functions of bounded variation, motivated by possible applications to evolutionary quasilinear problems. As a…
We introduce a family of pairings between a bounded divergence-measure vector field and a function $u$ of bounded variation, depending on the choice of the pointwise representative of $u$. We prove that these pairings inherit from the…
We analyze some properties of the measures in the dual of the space $BV$, by considering (signed) Radon measures satisfying a perimeter bound condition, which means that the absolute value of the measure of a set is controlled by the…
A new notion of pairing between measure vector fields with divergence measure and scalar functions, which are not required to be weakly differentiable, is introduced. In particular, in the case of essentially bounded divergence-measure…
In this paper we prove that the Anzellotti pairing can be regarded as a relaxed functional with respect to the weak* convergence in the space BV of functions of bounded variation. The crucial tool is a preliminary integral representation of…
We introduce a family of (nonlinear) pairing measures that ensure the validity of the divergence rule for composite functions $\boldsymbol{B}(x,u(x))$, where $\boldsymbol{B}(\cdot,t)$ is a bounded divergence-measure vector field, and $u$ is…
We prove a quantitative mixing estimate for the Cauchy problem for transport along divergence-free vector fields with bounded variation. By developing a framework that quantifies Ambrosio's regularisation scheme, we derive the first…
By employing the differential structure recently developed by N. Gigli, we first give a notion of functions of bounded variation ($BV$) in terms of suitable vector fields on a complete and separable metric measure space $(\mathbb{X},d,\mu)$…
Take a set of balls in $\mathbb R^d$. We find a subset of pairwise disjoint balls whose combined perimeter controls the perimeter of the union of the original balls. This can be seen as a boundary version of the Vitali covering lemma. We…

In this note we study advection diffusion equations associated to incompressible $W^{1,p}$ velocity fields with $p>2$. We present new estimates on the energy dissipation rate and we discuss applications to the study of upper bounds on the…
Following a Maz'ya-type approach, we adapt the theory of rough traces of functions of bounded variation ($BV$) in the context of doubling metric measure spaces supporting a Poincar\'e inequality. This eventually allows for an integration by…
The molecular motion in heterogeneous media displays anomalous diffusion by the mean-squared displacement $\langle X^2(t) \rangle = 2 D t^\alpha$. Motivated by experiments reporting populations of the anomalous diffusion parameters $\alpha$…
We study the rates of convergence of the posterior distribution for Bayesian density estimation with Dirichlet mixtures of normal distributions as the prior. The true density is assumed to be twice continuously differentiable. The bandwidth…
In this paper, we prove that there are certain relations among representation densities and provide an efficient way to compute representation densities by using these relations. As an application, we compute some arithmetic intersection…
This article deals with the regularity of the entropy solutions of scalar conservation laws with discontinuous flux. It is well-known [Adimurthi et al., Comm. Pure Appl. Math. 2011] that the entropy solution for such equation does not admit…
The Sutherland approximation to the van der Waals forces is applied to the derivation of a self-consistent Vlasov-type field in a liquid filling a half space, bordering vacuum. The ensuing Vlasov equation is then derived, and solved to…
