Notes on a slice distance for singular \(L^p\)-bundles (Q2253259)

A slice distance for the class of weak abelian \(L^p\)-bundles in \(3\) dimensions was introduced in [\textit{M. Petrache} and \textit{T. Rivière}, Geom. Funct. Anal. 21, No. 6, 1419--1442 (2011; Zbl 1242.58009)], where it was used to prove the closure of such class of bundles for the weak \(L^p\)-convergence. This distance is studied in this article, the author proving more properties of it; for example he shows that it is Hölder-continuous on the slices. Using the same distance, a notion of a boundary trace is given, which allows to use the direct method for minimization problems on weak bundles with fixed trace. Then some conjectures and some open questions are stated.
