The BD jump-set conjecture

Let uBDloc(Rd)u\in\operatorname{BD}_{\mathrm{loc}}(\mathbb{R}^d), with SuS_u its approximate discontinuity set and JuJ_u its jump set. BD jump-set conjecture. For all uBDloc(Rd)u\in\operatorname{BD}_{\mathrm{loc}}(\mathbb{R}^d),

Hd1(SuJu)=0.\mathcal{H}^{d-1}(S_u\setminus J_u)=0.

This would establish the missing analogue of the corresponding structural statement for functions of bounded variation. It is one of the major open problems in the theory of BD-maps, and only partial results are currently known.
