    If \(X\) is a separable Banach space endowed with the norm \(\|\cdot\|\), \(\gamma\) is a non-degenerate centered Gaussian measure, and \(H\) is the Cameron-Martin space associated to the measure \(\gamma\), then \((X,\gamma,H)\) is an abstract Wiener space. In [J. Funct. Anal. 174, No. 1, 227--249 (2000; Zbl 0978.60088)], \textit{M. Fukushima} defined sets with finite perimeter and functions of bounded variation.NEWLINENEWLINEIn this paper, the authors consider some questions related to perimeters of good sets. First, they compare the perimeter measure with the surface measure introduced by \textit{H. Airault} and \textit{P. Malliavin} in [Bull. Sci. Math., II. Sér. 112, No. 1, 3--52 (1988; Zbl 0656.60046)], and show that both notions coincide for suitably smooth sets. Then, the authors investigate the question whether a convex set has finite perimeter and they show that all open convex sets have finite perimeter. However, they prove that in any infinite dimensional Hilbert space with a non-degenerate Gaussian measure there exists a closed convex set with infinite perimeter.
