Abstract: | It is known that, if u is a real valued function on ?N of bounded variation, then its total variation decreases under polarization. In this paper we identify the difference between the total variation of u and that one of its polar uΠ (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) |
