In the Euclidean setting the celebrated Aleksandrov-Busemann-Feller theorem states that convex functions are a.e. twice differentiable. In this paper we prove that a similar result holds in the Heisenberg group, by showing that every…

We study the behavior of Lipschitz functions on intrinsic $C^1$ submanifolds of Heisenberg groups: our main result is their almost everywhere tangential Pansu differentiability. We also provide two applications: a Lusin-type approximation…

We show that, given an absolutely continuous horizontal curve $\gamma$ in the Heisenberg group, there is a $C^1$ horizontal curve $\Gamma$ such that $\Gamma=\gamma$ and $\Gamma'=\gamma'$ outside a set of small measure. Conversely, we…

Let $f:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}$ be a function. Assume that for a measurable set $\Omega$ and almost every $x\in\Omega$ there exists a vector $\xi_x\in\mathbb{R}^n$ such that $$\liminf_{h\to 0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)-\langle \xi_x,…

The main result of the present paper is a Rademacher-type theorem for intrinsic Lipschitz graphs of codimension $k\leq n$ in sub-Riemannian Heisenberg groups $\mathbb H^n$. For the purpose of proving such a result we settle several related…

We prove that in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$ with a sub-Finsler structure, an $(X,Y)$-Lipschitz surface which is complete, oriented, connected and stable must be a vertical plane. In particular, the result holds for entire intrinsic…

In this paper we study the class $\mathcal{E}_{m}(\Omega)$ of $m-$subharmonic functions introduced by Lu in \cite{L1}. We prove that the convergence in $m-$capacity implies the convergence of the associated Hessian measure for functions…

In the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$, equipped with a left-invariant and not necessarily symmetric norm in the horizontal distribution, we provide examples of entire area-minimizing horizontal graphs which are locally Lipschitz in…

We show that the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$ contains a measure zero set $N$ such that every Lipschitz function $f\colon \mathbb{H}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ is Pansu differentiable at a point of $N$. The proof adapts the construction of small…

Given a family of locally Lipschitz vector fields $X(x)=(X_1(x),\dots,X_m(x))$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$, $m\leq n$, we study integral functionals depending on $X$. Using the results in \cite{MPSC1}, we study the convergence of minima, minimizers…

Lusin's Theorem states that, for every Borel-measurable function $\bf{f}$ on $\mathbb R$ and every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a continuous function $\bf{g}$ on $\mathbb R$ which is equal to $\bf{f}$ except on a set of measure $<\epsilon$.…

We consider surfaces of class $C^1$ in the $3$-dimensional sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group ${\mathbb H}^1$. Assuming the surface is area-stationary, i.e., a critical point of the sub-Riemannian perimeter under compactly supported…

We introduce a generalization of the Heisenberg algebra which is written in terms of a functional of one generator of the algebra, $f(J_0)$, that can be any analytical function. When $f$ is linear with slope $\theta$, we show that the…

We show that the $\beta$--numbers of intrinsic Lipschitz graphs of Heisenberg groups $\mathbb{H}_n$ are locally Carleson integrable when $n \geq 2$. Our technique relies on a recent Dorronsoro inequality \cite{FO} as well as a novel slicing…

Let $\Delta$ be a closed, cocompact subgroup of $G \times \widehat{G}$, where $G$ is a second countable, locally compact abelian group. Using localization of Hilbert $C^*$-modules, we show that the Heisenberg module…

A theorem of Dorronsoro from the 1980s quantifies the fact that real-valued Sobolev functions on Euclidean spaces can be approximated by affine functions almost everywhere, and at all sufficiently small scales. We prove a variant of…

Let G be a Lie group equipped with a set of left invariant vector fields. These vector fields generate a function \xi on Wiener space into G via the stochastic version of Cartan's rolling map. It is shown here that, for any smooth function…

In the Engel group with its Carnot group structure we study subsets of locally finite subRiemannian perimeter and possessing constant subRiemannian normal. We prove the rectifiability of such sets: more precisely we show that, in some…
