Abstract

We study classes of variational problems with energy densities of linear growth acting on vector-valued functions. Our energies are strictly convex variants of the TV-regularization model introduced by Rudin, Osher and Fatemi [15] as a powerful tool in the field of image recovery. In contrast to our previous work we here try to figure out conditions under which we can solve these variational problems in classical spaces, e.g. in the Sobolev class W1;1.
