Surface measure on normal graphs #

The normal graph parametrization of a function φ : E → ℝ sends y to (φ y, y) in the Euclidean product WithLp 2 (ℝ × E). When φ is K-Lipschitz, this parametrization is (K + 1)-Lipschitz and its inverse on the graph, the second projection, is 1-Lipschitz. Consequently, normalized Hausdorff measure on the graph is quantitatively equivalent to volume measure on the parameter space.

For a differentiable graph, the geometric Jacobian of the parametrization is sqrt (1 + ‖fderiv ℝ φ x‖²). The weighted area formula therefore becomes the classical graph surface-integration formula, with both extended nonnegative and Bochner integral versions. These results allow an L² trace constructed in graph coordinates to be interpreted as a trace with respect to Euclidean surface measure.

Exact surface integration #

Weighted surface integration on a differentiable normal graph. The weight is allowed to be nonmeasurable and both sides are extended nonnegative integrals.

The normalized Euclidean surface measure of a differentiable normal graph is the integral of the classical surface factor sqrt (1 + ‖Dφ‖²).

Integrability on a differentiable normal graph is equivalent to integrability of the pullback multiplied by the classical surface factor.

Lipschitz graph measure comparison #

Euclidean surface measure of a normal graph dominates volume of its parameter set. This lower bound uses only that the tangential projection is 1-Lipschitz.

The Euclidean surface measure of a K-Lipschitz normal graph over s is at most (K + 1) ^ dim E times the volume of s.

Pushing volume forward by a Lipschitz graph parametrization gives a measure bounded by Euclidean surface measure restricted to the graph.

Euclidean surface measure restricted to a K-Lipschitz graph is at most (K + 1) ^ dim E times the pushforward of volume by its parametrization.

A set has zero volume exactly when its image in a Lipschitz normal graph has zero Euclidean surface measure.
