A note on indecomposable sets of finite perimeter

Abstract

Bonicatto, Pasqualetto and Rajala (2020) proved that a decomposition theorem for sets of finite perimeter into indecomposable sets, known to hold in Euclidean spaces, holds also in complete metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure, supporting a Poincaré inequality, and satisfying an isotropicity condition. We show that the last assumption can be removed.
