Parabolic Quasilinear Equations Minimizing Linear Growth Functionals

Award-winning monograph of the Ferran Sunyer i Balaguer Prize 2003.

This book contains a detailed mathematical analysis of the variational approach to image restoration based on the minimization of the total variation submitted to the constraints given by the image acquisition model. This model, initially introduced by Rudin, Osher, and Fatemi, had a strong influence in the development of variation...
