Abstract: | We investigate the regularity of the marginals onto hyperplanes for sets of finite perimeter. We prove, in particular, that if a set of finite perimeter has log-concave marginals onto a.e. hyperplane then the set is convex. Our proof relies on measuring the perimeter of a set through a Hilbertian fractional Sobolev norm, a fact that we believe has its own interest. |
