The Steiner rearrangement in any codimension

Abstract

We analyze the Steiner rearrangement in any codimension of Sobolev and $BV$ functions. In particular, we prove a Pólya-Szegő inequality for a large class of convex integrals. Then, we give minimal assumptions under which functions attaining equality are necessarily Steiner symmetric.
