Abstract

A natural quantity that measures how well a map f:RdRDf:\mathbb{R}^{d}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{D} is approximated by an affine transformation is ωf(x,r)=infA(1B(x,r)B(x,r)(fAAr)2)12,\omega_{f}(x,r)=\inf_{A}\left(\frac{1}{|B(x,r)|}\int_{B(x,r)}\left(\frac{|f-A|}{|A'|r}\right)^{2}\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}, where the infimum ranges over all non constant affine transformations. This is natural insofar as it is invariant under rescaling ff in either its domain or image. We show that if f:RdRDf:\mathbb{R}^{d}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{D} is quasisymmetric and its image has a sufficient amount of rectifiable structure (although not necessarily Hd\mathcal{H}^{d}-finite), then ωf(x,r)2dxdrr\omega_{f}(x,r)^{2}\frac{dxdr}{r} is a Carleson measure on Rd×(0,)\mathbb{R}^{d}\times(0,\infty). Moreover, this is an equivalence: the existence of such a Carleson measure implies that, in every ball B(x,r)RdB(x,r)\subseteq \mathbb{R}^{d}, there is a set EE occupying 90% of B(x,r)B(x,r), say, upon which ff is bi-Lipschitz (and hence guaranteeing rectifiable pieces in the image). En route, we make a minor adjustment to a theorem of Semmes to show that quasisymmetric maps of subsets of Rd\mathbb{R}^{d} into Rd\mathbb{R}^{d} are bi-Lipschitz on a large subset quantitatively.
