We analyze the lower semicontinuous envelope of the curvature functional of Cartesian surfaces in codimension one. To this aim, following the approach by Anzellotti–Serapioni–Tamanini, we study the class of currents that naturally arise as weak limits of Gauss graphs of smooth functions. The curvature measures are then studied in the non-parametric case. Concerning homogeneous functions, some model examples are studied in detail. Finally, a new gap phenomenon is observed.

Abstract
We analyze the lower semicontinuous envelope of the curvature functional of Cartesian surfaces in codimension one. To this aim, following the approach by Anzellotti–Serapioni–Tamanini, we study the class of currents that naturally arise as weak limits of Gauss graphs of smooth functions. The curvature measures are then studied in the non-parametric case. Concerning homogeneous functions, some model examples are studied in detail. Finally, a new gap phenomenon is observed.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
