Wenger and Young proved that the pair $(\mathbb{R}^m,\mathbb{H}^n)$ has the Lipschitz extension property for $m \leq n$ where $\mathbb{H}^n$ is the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group. That is, for some $C>0$, any $L$-Lipschitz map from a…

We give a new approach to the infinitesimal structure of Lipschitz maps into L^1. As a first application, we give an alternative proof of the main theorem from an earlier paper, that the Heisenberg group does not admit a bi-Lipschitz…

We prove that for $n\geq 2$, the Lipschitz homotopy group $\pi_{n+1}^{\rm Lip}(\mathbb{H}^n)\neq 0$ of the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$ is nontrivial.

Lipschitz and horizontal maps from an $n$-dimensional space into the $(2n+1)$-dimensional Heisenberg group $\H^n$ are abundant, while maps from higher-dimensional spaces are much more restricted. DeJarnette-Haj{\l}asz-Lukyanenko-Tyson…

We prove non-extendability results for Lipschitz maps with target space being jet spaces equipped with a left-invariant Riemannian distance, as well as jet spaces equipped with a left-invariant sub-Riemannian Carnot-Caratheodory distance.…

Johnson and Lindenstrauss proved that any Lipschitz mapping from an $n$-point subset of a metric space into Hilbert space can be extended to the whole space, while increasing the Lipschitz constant by a factor of $O(\sqrt{\log n})$. We…

In the present paper we investigate the properties of the Hausdorff mapping $\mathcal{H}$, which takes each compact metric space to the space of its nonempty closed subspaces. It is shown that this mapping is nonexpanding (Lipschitz mapping…

In the setting of Carnot groups, we exhibit examples of intrinisc Lipschitz curves of positive $\mathcal{H}^1$-measure that intersect every connected intrinsic Lipschitz curve in a $\mathcal{H}^1$-negligible set. As a consequence such…

We study the question: when are Lipschitz mappings dense in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(M,\mathbf{H}^n)$? Here $M$ denotes a compact Riemannian manifold with or without boundary, while $\mathbf{H}^n$ denotes the $n$th Heisenberg group…

Given a Lipschitz map $f$ from a cube into a metric space, we find several equivalent conditions for $f$ to have a Lipschitz factorization through a metric tree. As an application we prove a recent conjecture of David and Schul. The…

We provide a sufficient condition for the nontriviality of the Lipschitz homotopy group of the Heisenberg group, $\pi_m^{Lip}(H_n)$, in terms of properties of the classical homotopy group of the sphere, $\pi_m(S^n)$. As an application we…

We study a new bi-Lipschitz invariant \lambda(M) of a metric space M; its finiteness means that Lipschitz functions on an arbitrary subset of M can be linearly extended to functions on M whose Lipschitz constants are enlarged by a factor…

Tukia and Vaisala showed that every quasi-conformal map of $\R^n$ extends to a quasi-conformal self-map of $\R^{n+1}$. The restriction of the extended map to the upper half-space $\R^n \times \R^+$ is, in fact, bi-Lipschitz with respect to…

The goal of this paper is to define and inspect a metric version of the universal path space and study its application to purely 2-unrectifiable spaces, in particular the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$. The construction of the universal…

We prove that for every $n\in \mathbb{N}$ there exists a metric space $(X,d_X)$, an $n$-point subset $S\subseteq X$, a Banach space $(Z,\|\cdot\|_Z)$ and a $1$-Lipschitz function $f:S\to Z$ such that the Lipschitz constant of every function…

This is one of a series of papers examining the interplay between differentiation theory for Lipschitz maps, X-->V, and bi-Lipschitz nonembeddability, where X is a metric measure space and V is a Banach space. Here, we consider the case…

This note concerns low-dimensional intrinsic Lipschitz graphs, in the sense of Franchi, Serapioni, and Serra Cassano, in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$, $n\in \mathbb{N}$. For $1\leq k\leq n$, we show that every intrinsic $L$-Lipschitz…

This paper deals with the study of parameter dependence of extensions of Lipschitz mappings from the point of view of continuity. We show that if assuming appropriate curvature bounds for the spaces, the multivalued extension operators that…

We introduce extensions of the multidimensional Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$ by two-parameter groups of dilations, and then classify the extended groups up to isomorphism, by employing Lie algebra techniques. We show that the groups are…

The aim of this article is to prove a Lipschitz extension theorem for partially defined Lipschitz maps to jet spaces endowed with a left-invariant sub-Riemannian Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance. The jet spaces give a model for a certain…
