[For the entire collection see Zbl 0728.00011.] Let \(f\) be a positive function in \(W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^ n)\). The authors study the continuity of the map \({\mathcal R}\) which associates to \(f\) its symmetric decreasing rearrangement \(f^*\in W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^ n)\). After having introduced the definition of co-area regular function, they prove that, for any \(1\leq p<\infty\), \({\mathcal R}\) is \(W^{1,p}(\mathbb{R}^ n)\) continuous at a function \(f\) if and only if \(f\) is co-area regular. The same result has been already established by the authors in J. Am. Math. Soc. 2, No. 4, 683-773 (1989; Zbl 0688.46014), but a different proof, based on the theory of rectifiable currents, is presented.
