Regularity properties of free discontinuity sets (Q5953873)

In this paper the authors have studied the regularity properties of a singular set \(K\) minimizing the Mumford-Shah functional. They deal with the problem of establishing that the set of points where \(K\) is not locally a \(C^1\) surface is ``small''. More exactly, they have proved that every ball centered on \(K\) contains, at an estimable scale transition, a subball in which \(K\) is a \(C^1\) surface splitting the ball in two hemispheres on which the oscillation of the function \(u_K\) is small, where \((K,u_K)\) is the pair which minimizes the Mumford-Shah functional.
