AbstractWe 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 standard one, introduced in [G. Anzellotti, Pairings between measures and bounded functions and compensated compactness, Ann. Mat. Pura Appl. (4) 135 1983, 293–318], [G.-Q. Chen and H. Frid, Divergence-measure fields and hyperbolic conservation laws, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 147 1999, 2, 89–118], all the main properties and features (e.g. coarea, Leibniz, and Gauss–Green formulas). We also characterize the pairings making the corresponding functionals semicontinuous with respect to the strict convergence in \mathrm{BV}. We remark that the standard pairing in general does not share this property.

AbstractIn the setting of a metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincaré inequality, we define and study a class of{\mathrm{BV}}functions with zero boundary values. In particular, we show that the class is the closure of compactly supported{\mathrm{BV}}functions in the{\mathrm{BV}}norm. Utilizing this theory, we then study the variational 1-capacity and its Lipschitz and{\mathrm{BV}}analogs. We show that each of these is an outer capacity, and that the different capacities are equal for certain sets.
