Abstract

We are interested in quantitative rectifiability results for subsets of infinite dimensional Hilbert space HH. We prove a version of Azzam and Schul's dd-dimensional Analyst's Travelling Salesman Theorem in this setting by showing for any lower dd-regular set EHE \subseteq H that diam(E)d+βd(E)Hd(E)+Error, \text{diam}(E)^d + \beta^d(E) \sim \mathscr{H}^d(E) + \text{Error}, where βd(E)\beta^d(E) give a measure of the curvature of EE and the error term is related to the theory of uniform rectifiability (a quantitative version of rectifiability introduced by David and Semmes). To do this, we show how to modify the Reifenberg Parametrization Theorem of David and Toro so that it holds in Hilbert space. As a corollary, we show that a set EHE \subseteq H is uniformly rectifiable if and only if it satisfies the so-called Bilateral Weak Geometric Lemma, meaning that EE is bi-laterally well approximated by planes at most scales and locations.
