Reifenberg Theorem for Locally Finitely Almost Splitting Sets

Metric Geometry 2025-08-21 v1

Abstract

The well-known Reifenberg theorem states that if a subset of Rn\mathbb{R}^n can be well approximated by kk-planes at every point and every scale, then it is biH\"older homeomorphic to a kk-disk. This article concerns a subset SS of Rn\mathbb{R}^n which can be approximated by at most NN parallel kk planes at each point and scale. As a subset of Rn\mathbb{R}^n such an SS may be quite degenerate; SS may clearly not be homeomorphic to a disk, and indeed we will see may not be homeomorphic to a union of disks. However, we prove that SS is still the image of a multivalued map on Rk\mathbb{R}^k, which is itself a biH\"older homeomorphism of the disk into the set of subsets of Rn\mathbb{R}^n.
