We show if a metric measure space admits a differentiable structure then porous sets have measure zero and hence the measure is pointwise doubling. We then give a construction to show if we only require an approximate differentiable…
This is an expository article, closely following the author's lecture at the 2014 Journal Differential Geometry conference.
On metric spaces equipped with doubling measures, we prove that a differentiability theorem holds for Lipschitz functions if and only if the space supports nontrivial (metric) derivations in the sense of Weaver that satisfy an additional…
This paper gives a short introduction into the metric theory of spaces with dilations.
We investigate the relationship between measurable differentiable structures on doubling metric measure spaces and derivations. We prove: [1] a decomposition theorem for the module of derivations into free modules; [2] the existence of a…
A number of topics involving metrics and measures are discussed, including some of the special structure associated with ultrametrics.
This paper is concerned with analysis on metric spaces in a variety of settings and with several kinds of structure.
A dilatation structure is a concept in between a group and a differential structure. In this article we study fundamental properties of dilatation structures on metric spaces. This is a part of a series of papers which show that such a…
The question in the title is discussed briefly, with emphasis on a few basic examples and their properties.
We compare three notions of genericity of separable metric structures. Our analysis provides a general model theoretic technique of showing that structures are generic in descriptive set theoretic (topological) sense and in measure…
These informal notes were prepared in connection with a lecture at a high school mathematics tournament, and provide an overview of some examples of metric spaces and a few of their basic properties.
We prove metric differentiation for differentiability spaces in the sense of Cheeger. As corollaries we give a new proof that the minimal generalized upper gradient coincides with the pointwise Lipschitz constant for Lipschitz functions on…
We prove the equivalence of two seemingly very different ways of generalising Rademacher's theorem to metric measure spaces. One such generalisation is based upon the notion of forming partial derivatives along a very rich structure of…
In this article, we introduce the concept of lexicographic metric space and, after discussing some basic properties of these metric spaces, such as completeness, boundedness, compactness and separability, we obtain a formula for the metric…
In this paper, a computably definable predicate is defined and characterized. Then, it is proved that every separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert structure in an effectively presented language is computable. Moreover, every definable…
The uniform structure on a differential space defined by a family of generators is considered.
The aim of this note is to explain in which sense an axiomatic Sobolev space over a general metric measure space (\`a la Gol'dshtein-Troyanov) induces - under suitable locality assumptions - a first-order differential structure.
These informal notes deal with some basic properties of metric spaces, especially concerning lengths of curves.
We introduce and develop the theory of metric sheaves. A metric sheaf $\A$ is defined on a topological space $X$ such that each fiber is a metric model. We describe the construction of the generic model as the quotient space of the sheaf…
This primer is intended as an introduction to differential forms, a central object in modern mathematical physics, for scientists and engineers.
