Properties of a Hilbertian Norm for Perimeter
Abstract
A recent paper of Jerison and Figalli proved a relationship between the H1/2 norms of smoothed out indicator functions of sets and their perimeter. We continue this line of investigation and extend it in two ways. First, we describe a description of the situation with general functions of bounded variation, and show that a related quantity controls the size of the jump set. Second, we provide an exact formula in the case of a set of finite perimeter. Several questions remain and are presented here.
