Abstract:

We introduce a new class of nonoriented sets in $\mathbb R^n$ endowed with a generalized notion of second fundamental form and boundary, proving several compactness and structure properties. Our work extends the definition and some results of J. E. Hutchinson and can be applied to variational problems involving surfaces with boundary.
