We compare a recent selection theorem given by Chistyakov using the notion of modulus of variation, with a selection theorem of Schrader based on bounded oscillation and with a selection theorem of Di Piazza-Maniscalco based on bounded -oscillation.
A descriptive characterization of a Riemann type integral, defined by BV partition of unity, is given and the result is used to prove a version of the controlled convergence theorem.
We investigate the natural domain of definition of the Godbillon-Vey 2- dimensional cohomology class of the group of diffeomorphisms of the circle. We introduce the notion of area functionals on a space of functions on the circle, we give a sufficiently large space of functions with nontrivial area functional and we give a sufficiently large group of Lipschitz homeomorphisms of the circle where the Godbillon-Vey class is defined.
