For a Borel set E in R^n, the total Menger curvature of E, or c(E), is the integral over E^3 (with respect to 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure in each factor of E) of c(x,y,z)^2, where 1/c(x,y,z) is the radius of the circle passing through…

We establish that a closed set $\mathcal{S}$ is removable for $\alpha$-H\"older continuous $\mathscr{A}$-harmonic functions in a reversible Finsler manifold $(\Omega, F, \mathtt{V})$ of dimension $n \geq 2$, provided that (under certain…

Fix $d\geq 2$, and $s\in (d-1,d)$. We characterize the non-negative locally finite non-atomic Borel measures $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for which the associated $s$-Riesz transform is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$ in terms of the Wolff energy. This…

Let $E\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\ge 1$, be a uniformly rectifiable set of dimension $n$. We show $E$ that has big pieces of boundaries of a class of domains which satisfy a 2-sided corkscrew condition, and whose connected components are…

The classical Painlev\'e theorem tells that sets of zero length are removable for bounded analytic functions, while (some) sets of positive length are not. For general $K$-quasiregular mappings in planar domains the corresponding critical…

We discuss removability problems concerning differentiability and pointwise Lipschitz conditions for functions of a real variable. We prove that, in each of the settings under consideration, a set is removable if and only if it has no…

This paper is devoted to the proof of two related results. The first one asserts that if $\mu$ is a Radon measure in $\mathbb R^d$ satisfying $$\limsup_{r\to 0} \frac{\mu(B(x,r))}{r}>0\quad \text{ and }\quad…

We provide sufficient conditions for a set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ to be a non-universal differentiability set, i.e. to be contained in the set of points of non-differentiability of a real-valued Lipschitz function. These conditions are…

We characterise rectifiable subsets of a complete metric space $X$ in terms of local approximation, with respect to the Gromov--Hausdorff distance, by an $n$-dimensional Banach space. In fact, if $E\subset X$ with $\mathcal{H}^n(E)<\infty$…

Let $E\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$, be an Ahlfors-David regular set of dimension $n$. We show that the weak-$A_\infty$ property of harmonic measure, for the open set $\Omega:= \mathbb{R}^{n+1}\setminus E$, implies uniform…

We employ the Riesz transform as a means for describing geometric properties of sets in ${\mathbb{R}}^n$, and study the extent to which they can be used to characterize function spaces defined on said sets. In particular, characterizations…

The purpose of this note is to record a consequence, for general metric spaces, of a recent result of David Bate. We prove the following fact: Let $X$ be a compact metric space of topological dimension $n$. Suppose that the $n$-dimensional…

We give a sufficient condition for a Borel subset $E\subset X$ of a complete metric space with $\mathcal{H}^n(E)<\infty$ to be $n$-rectifiable. This condition involves a decomposition of $E$ into rectifiable curves known as an Alberti…

For 0<n<d integers and r>2, we prove that an n-dimensional Ahlfors-David regular measure M in R^d is uniformly n-rectifiable if and only if the r-variation for the Riesz transform with respect to M is a bounded operator in L^2(M). This…

We prove a quantitative version of the following statement. Given a Lipschitz function f from the k-dimensional unit cube into a general metric space, one can decomposed f into a finite number of BiLipschitz functions f|_{F_i} so that the…

For a set $E$ of positive and finite length, we prove that if the Huovinen transform (the convolution operator with kernel $z^k/|z|^{k+1}$ for an odd number $k$) associated to $E$ exists in principal value, then $E$ is rectifiable.

In this paper it is shown that if $E\subset\mathbb R^{n+1}$ is an $s$-AD regular compact set, with $s\in [n-\frac12,n)$, and $E$ is contained in a hyperplane or, more generally, in an $n$-dimensional $C^1$ manifold, then the Hausdorff…

We prove that if $\tau$ is a large positive number, then the atomic Goldberg-type space $\mathfrak{h}^1(N)$ and the space $\mathfrak{h}_{\mathcal R_\tau}^1(N)$ of all integrable functions on $N$ whose local Riesz transform $\mathcal R_\tau$…

Let $A(\cdot)$ be an $(n+1)\times (n+1)$ uniformly elliptic matrix with H\"older continuous real coefficients and let $\mathcal E_A(x,y)$ be the fundamental solution of the PDE $\mathrm{div} A(\cdot) \nabla u =0$ in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$. Let…

In this paper we show that if $\mu$ is a Borel measure in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with growth of order $n$, so that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform $R_\mu$ is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$, and $B\subset\mathbb R^{n+1}$ is a ball with $\mu(B)\approx…
