Let $X$ be a separable real Hilbert space. We show that for every Lipschitz function $f:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$, and for every $\epsilon>0$, there exists a Lipschitz, real analytic function $g:X\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ such that…

We characterize all (absolute) 1-Lipschitz retracts Q of R^n with the maximum norm. Omitting two technical details, they coincide with the subsets written as the solution set of (at most) 2n inequalities like follows. For every coordinate…

Lipschitz decomposition is a useful tool in the design of efficient algorithms involving metric spaces. While many bounds are known for different families of finite metrics, the optimal parameters for $n$-point subsets of $\ell_p$, for $p >…

It is well known that a purely unrectifiable set cannot support a harmonic measure which is absolutely continuous with respect to the Hausdorff measure of this set. We show that nonetheless there exist elliptic operators on (purely…

We study the removability of compact sets for continuous Sobolev functions. In particular, we focus on sets with infinitely many complementary components, called "detour sets", which resemble the Sierpi\'nski gasket. The main theorem is…

Suppose that $E \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is a uniformly rectifiable set of codimension $1$. We show that every harmonic function is $\varepsilon$-approximable in $L^p(\Omega)$ for every $p \in (1,\infty)$, where $\Omega := \mathbb{R}^{n+1}…

Let $u$ be a harmonic function in a $C^1$ domain $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, which vanishes on an open subset of the boundary. In this note we study its critical set $\{x \in \overline{D}: \nabla u(x) = 0 \}$. When $D$ is a $C^{1,\alpha}$…

In Carnot groups of step 2 we consider sets having maximal or minimal possible homogeneous Hausdorff dimension compared to their Euclidean one: in the first case we prove that they must be in a sense vertical, that is a large part of these…

Let $f(z) = z^2 + c$ be a quadratic polynomial, with c in the Mandelbrot set. Assume further that both fixed points of f are repelling, and that f is not renormalizable. Then we prove that the Julia set J of f is holomorphically removable…

Certain solvable extensions of $H$-type groups provide noncompact counterexamples to the so-called Lichnerowicz conjecture, which asserted that ``harmonic'' Riemannian spaces must be rank 1 symmetric spaces.

This paper is related to the problem of finding a good notion of rectifiability in sub-Riemannian geometry. In particular, we study which kind of results can be expected for smooth hypersurfaces in Carnot groups. Our main contribution will…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold, and let $G$ be a compact simple Lie group with bi-invariant metric that is not $\operatorname{Sp}(n)$ for $n \geq 8$, $E_{8}$, $F_{4}$, or $G_{2}$. We show that the singular set of any stable…

We discuss the problem of deciding when a metrisable topological group $G$ has a canonically defined local Lipschitz geometry. This naturally leads to the concept of minimal metrics on $G$, that we characterise intrinsically in terms of a…

We show that for any dimension t>2(1+alpha K)/(1+K) there exists a compact set E of dimension t and a function alpha-Holder continuous on the plane, which is K-quasiregular only outside of E. To do this, we construct an explicit…

We show that every group $H$ of at most exponential growth with respect to some left invariant metric admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into a finitely generated group $G$ such that $G$ is amenable (respectively, solvable, satisfies a…

We conjecture that whenever $M$ is a metric space of density at most continuum, then the space of Lipschitz functions is $w^*$-separable. We prove the conjecture for several classes of metric spaces including all the Banach spaces with a…

We present details of the harmonic space construction of a quaternionic extension of the four-dimensional Taub-NUT metric. As the main merit of the harmonic space approach, the metric is obtained in an explicit form following a generic set…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^d$ be a $C^1$ domain or, more generally, a Lipschitz domain with small Lipschitz constant and $A(x)$ be a $d \times d$ uniformly elliptic, symmetric matrix with Lipschitz coefficients. Assume $u$ is harmonic in…

We give lower bound estimates for the macroscopic scale of coarse differentiability of Lipschitz maps from a Carnot group with the Carnot-Carath\'{e}odory metric $(G,\dcc)$ to a few different classes of metric spaces. Using this result, we…

This paper extends some results of [M5] and [M3], in particular, removing assumptions of positive lower density. We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\mathbb{R}^{n}\to\mathbb{R}^{m}, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal…
