We show that whenever a separable subset $S$ of a complete metric space $X$ admits a $d$-dimensional weak tangent field, the set $S$ is close to being $d$-dimensional in the following sense. Whenever $\mu$ is a Borel finite measure on $X$…
For $d\geq 2$, we construct a doubling measure $\nu$ on $\R^d$ and a rectifiable curve $\Gamma$ such that $\nu(\Gamma)>0$.
We show that in doubling, geodesic metric measure spaces (including, for example, Euclidean space), sets of positive measure have a certain large-scale metric density property. As an application, we prove that a set of positive measure in…
Let $(X,d)$ be a compact metric space. We consider the behavior of probability measures $\mu$ with the property that $$ \int_{X} d(x, y) d\mu(y) \qquad \mbox{is independent of}~x \in X.$$ It appears that such measures, when they exist,…
In this work we provide a geometric characterization of the measures $\mu$ in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with polynomial upper growth of degree $n$ such that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform $R\mu (x) = \int \frac{x-y}{|x-y|^{n+1}}\,d\mu(y)$…
We consider extensions of quasiconformal maps and the uniformization theorem to the setting of metric spaces $X$ homeomorphic to $\mathbb R^2$. Given a measure $\mu$ on such a space, we introduce $\mu$-quasiconformal maps $f:X \to \mathbb…
In his 1990 Inventiones paper, P. Jones characterized subsets of rectifiable curves in the plane, using a multiscale sum of what is now known as Jones $\beta$-numbers, numbers measuring flatness in a given scale and location. This work was…
We give the following characterization of rectifiable metric spaces. A metric space with positive lower Hausdorff density is rectifiable if and only if, for any subset $F$ and $f:F\to Y$, a Lipschitz map into a metric space with positive…
We study the structure of the support of a doubling measure by analyzing its self-similarity properties, which we estimate using a variant of the $L^1$ Wasserstein distance. We show that measure satisfying certain self-similarity conditions…
Let $E$ be a set in $\mathbb R^d$ with finite $n$-dimensional Hausdorff measure $H^n$ such that $\liminf_{r\to0}r^{-n} H^n(B(x,r)\cap E)>0$ for $H^n$-a.e. $x\in E$. In this paper it is shown that $E$ is $n$-rectifiable if and only if…
One goal of geometric measure theory is to understand how measures in the plane or higher dimensional Euclidean space interact with families of lower dimensional sets. An important dichotomy arises between the class of rectifiable measures,…
For a fixed singular Borel probability measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{T}$, we give several characterizations of when an entire function is the Fourier transform of some $f \in L^2(\mu)$. The first characterization is given in terms of criteria…
This work provides a geometric characterization of the measures $\mu$ in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with polynomial upper growth of degree $n$ such that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform $R\mu (x) = \int \frac{x-y}{|x-y|^{n+1}}\,d\mu(y)$ belongs…
While there are numerous results on minimizers or stable solutions of the Bernoulli problem proving regularity of the free boundary and analyzing singularities, much less in known about critical points of the corresponding energy. Saddle…
In this paper we characterize the so called uniformly rectifiable sets of David and Semmes in terms of the Wasserstein distance $W_2$ from optimal mass transport. To obtain this result, we first prove a localization theorem for the distance…
In this note it is shown that if $\mu$ is an $n$-Ahlfors regular measure in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ such that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$ and the so-called BAUPP (bilateral approximation by unions of parallel…
A measure $\mu$ on the unit circle $\mathbb{T}$ belongs to Steklov class $\mathcal{S}$ if its density $w$ with respect to the Lebesgue measure on $\mathbb{T}$ is strictly positive: $\inf_{\mathbb{T}} w > 0$. Let $\mu$, $\mu_{-1}$ be…
Consider a mixing dynamical systems $([0,1], T, \mu)$, for instance a piecewise expanding interval map with a Gibbs measure $\mu$. Given a non-summable sequence $(m_k)$ of non-negative numbers, one may define $r_k (x)$ such that $\mu (B(x,…
We construct an example of a purely unrectifiable measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ for which the singular integrals associated to the kernels $\displaystyle{K(x)=\frac{P_{2k+1}(x)}{|x|^{2k+d}}}$, with $k\geq 1$ and $P_{2k+1}$ a homogeneous…
This paper is devoted to show that the flatness of tangents of $1$-codimensional measures in Carnot Groups implies $C^1_\mathbb{G}$-rectifiability. As applications we prove that measures with $(2n+1)$-density in the Heisenberg groups…
