We prove the developability and $C^{1,1/2}$ regularity of $W^{2,2}$ isometric immersions of $n$-dimensional domains into $R^{n+1}$. As a conclusion we show that any such Sobolev isometry can be approximated by smooth isometries in the…

We show that any isometric immersion of a flat plane domain into $\mathbb R^3$ is developable provided it enjoys the little H\"older regulairty $c^{1,2/3}$. In particular, isometric immersions of local $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity with $\alpha…

We discuss $C^1$ regularity and developability of isometric immersions of flat domains into $\mathbb R^3$ enjoying a local fractional Sobolev $W^{1+s, \frac2s}$ regularity for $2/3 \le s< 1 $, generalizing the known results on Sobolev and…
