Abstract

We study how generalized Jones β\beta-numbers relate to harmonic measure. Firstly, we generalize a result of Garnett, Mourgoglou and Tolsa by showing that domains in Rd+1\mathbb{R}^{d+1} whose boundaries are lower dd-content regular admit Corona decompositions for harmonic measure if and only if the square sum βΩ\beta_{\partial\Omega} of the generalized Jones β\beta-numbers is finite. Secondly, for semi-uniform domains with Ahlfors regular boundaries, it is known that uniform rectifiability implies harmonic measure is AA_{\infty} for semi-uniform domains, but now we give more explicit dependencies on the AA_{\infty}-constant in terms of the uniform rectifiability constant. This follows from a more general estimate that does not assume the boundary to be uniformly rectifiable. For general semi-uniform domains, we also show how to bound the harmonic measure of a subset in terms of that sets Hausdorff measure and the square sum of β\beta-numbers on that set. Using this, we give estimates on the fluctuation of Green's function in a uniform domain in terms of the β\beta-numbers. As a corollary, for bounded NTA domains , if BΩ=B(xΩ,cdiamΩ)B_{\Omega}=B(x_{\Omega},c\mathrm{diam} \Omega) is so that 2BΩΩ2B_{\Omega}\subseteq \Omega, we obtain that (diamΩ)d+Ω\BΩ 2GΩ(xΩ,x)GΩ(xΩ,x) 2dist(x,Ωc)3dxHd(Ω). (\mathrm{diam} \partial\Omega)^{d} + \int_{\Omega\backslash B_{\Omega}} \ |\frac{\nabla^2 G_{\Omega}(x_{\Omega},x)}{G_{\Omega}(x_{\Omega},x)}\ |^{2} \mathrm{dist}(x,\Omega^c)^{3} dx \sim \mathscr{H}^{d}(\partial\Omega). Secondly, we also use β\beta-numbers to estimate how much harmonic measure fails to be AA_{\infty}-weight for semi-uniform domains with Ahlfors regular boundaries.
