[edit] Plan of the voice

The first proposal for the plan of the voice can be seen here together with some further discussion Daniele.tampieri 10:15, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

Further additions by several contributors have led me to single out the following structure.

• Informal definition
• History

1. Camille Jordan for one variable.
2. Leonida Tonelli and Lamberto Cesari for several variable.
3. Cacioppoli, De Giorgi, Smoller, Conway, Vol'pert and other for the applications.

• Formal definition

1. One variable
2. Several variables

• Basic properties
• Generalizations

1. Weighted BV functions (tanks to T.J. Sullivan)
2. Special Functions of Bounded Variation, i.e. SBV functions

• Applications

1. In maths
2. In Physics and Engineering

• See also
• References
• Bibliography
• External links

If you have ideas on how to improve this structure, you're welcome. Thank you. :) Daniele.tampieri 10:44, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
