Abstract

Let EE be a set in Rd\mathbb R^d with finite nn-dimensional Hausdorff measure HnH^n such that lim infr0rnHn(B(x,r)E)>0\liminf_{r\to0}r^{-n} H^n(B(x,r)\cap E)>0 for HnH^n-a.e. xEx\in E. In this paper it is shown that EE is nn-rectifiable if and only if 01Hn(B(x,r)E)rnHn(B(x,2r)E)(2r)n2drr<\int_0^1 \left|\frac{H^n(B(x,r)\cap E)}{r^n} - \frac{H^n(B(x,2r)\cap E)}{(2r)^n}\right|^2\,\frac{dr}r < \infty for HnH^n-a.e. xEx\in E; and also if and only if limr0(Hn(B(x,r)E)rnHn(B(x,2r)E)(2r)n)=0 \lim_{r\to0}\left(\frac{H^n(B(x,r)\cap E)}{r^n} - \frac{H^n(B(x,2r)\cap E)}{(2r)^n}\right) = 0 for HnH^n-a.e. xEx\in E. Other more general results involving Radon measures are also proved.
