Variational theory of weak geometric structures: The measure method and its applications.
The paper collects the main results obtained by a recent measure method, introduced in [\textit{G. Bouchitté}, \textit{G. Buttazzo} and \textit{P. Seppecher}, Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. 5, 37--54 (1997; Zbl 0934.49011)], for the treatment of sets without an priori fixed Hausdorff dimension in the framework of variational problems, and for the study of some associated functional spaces. First of all, the basic notions of geometric kind, such as the tangent space and the mean curvature of a measure are recalled. Then, Sobolev spaces of type \(H\) and \(W\) and functions with bounded variation are introduced, all with respect to a measure. Applications to some classes of variational problems are also given concerning semicontinuity and relaxation of integral energies, as well as the homogenization of periodic low dimensional structures, and minimum and optimal control problems involving manifolds. Some new results are also announced. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1004.00021].
