The total variation seminorm on a domain is
The class is symmetric under negation, so no additional absolute value is needed around the integral. The bounded-variation space is
Equivalently, the distributional derivative is a finite vector-valued Radon measure, and the displayed quantity is its total mass in variation. For , it equals . Thus jumps are allowed, with their interface contributions measured by variation.
