Abstract:

We introduce intrinsic Lipschitz hypersurfaces in Carnot-Carathéodory spaces and prove that intrinsic Lipschitz domains have locally finite perimeter. We also show the existence of a boundary trace operator for functions with bounded variation on Lipschitz domains and obtain extension results for such functions. In particular, we characterize their trace space.

Keywords: Carnot-Carathéodory spaces, Traces, perimeter, bounded variation
