An integrable function u : Ω ⊂ R n → R m has (locally) bounded variation if Du = ( D 1 u , . . . , D n u ) is a Radon measure. We decompose Du = D a u + D s u = ∇ u L n + σ u | D s u | Theorem (Alberti, 1993). If u ∈ BV (Ω; R m ) , then rank ( σ u ( x )) = 1 for | D s u | -a.e. x ∈ Ω .

  7. State-of-the-art Proof Generalization to Heisenberg groups L ITERATURE AND REMARKS The rank-one property for BV functions was (1988) conjectured by E. De Giorgi and L. Ambrosio; (1993) proved by G. Alberti (see also Alberti-Csörnyei-Preiss); (2016) proved G. De Philippis and F. Rindler (consequence of a more general statement on A -free measures); (2016) proved by A. M. and D. Vittone. Remark. For SBV functions, i.e., D s u = ( u + − u − ) ν R H n − 1 � R with R rectifiable set, the theorem is way easier. Annalisa Massaccesi O N THE R ANK -O NE T HEOREM FOR BV FUNCTIONS
