We prove that the Sierpi\'nski gasket is non-removable for quasiconformal maps, thus answering a question of Bishop. The proof involves a new technique of constructing an exceptional homeomorphism from $\mathbb R^2$ into some non-planar…
We give sufficient geometric conditions, not involving capacities, for a compact null set to be removable for the Sobolev functions on weighted $\mathbb R^n$, defined as the closure of smooth functions in the weighted Sobolev norm. Our…
We study removable sets for Newtonian Sobolev functions in metric measure spaces satisfying the usual (local) assumptions of a doubling measure and a Poincar\'e inequality. In particular, when restricted to Euclidean spaces, a closed set…
We study the removability of a singular set for elliptic equations involving weight functions and variable exponents. We consider the case where the singular set satisfies conditions related to some generalization of upper Minkowski content…
A basilar property and a useful tool in the theory of Sobolev spaces is the density of smooth compactly supported functions in the space $W^{k,p}(\R^n)$ (i.e. the functions with weak derivatives of orders $0$ to $k$ in $L^p$). On Riemannian…
Near every point of a real-analytic set in $\mathbb R^n$, we make use of Hironaka's resolution of singularity theorem to construct a family of continuous functions in $W^{1, 1}_{loc}$ such that their weak derivatives have (removable)…
The class of convex sets that admit approximations as Minkowski sum of a compact convex set and a closed convex cone in the Hausdorff distance is introduced. These sets are called approximately Motzkin-decomposable and generalize the notion…
We study conditions on closed sets $C,F \subset \mathbb{R}$ making the product $C \times F$ removable or non-removable for $W^{1,p}$. The main results show that the Hausdorff-dimension of the smaller dimensional component $C$ determines a…
We introduce the notion of a contractible subshift. This is a strengthening of the notion of strong irreducibility, where we require that the gluings are given by a block map. We show that a subshift is a retract of a full shift if and only…
We study removable sets for the Orlicz-Sobolev space $W^{1,\Psi},$ for functions of the form $\Psi(t)=t^p\log^{\lambda}(e+t).$ We show that $(p,\lambda)$-porous sets lying in a hyperplane are removable and that this result is essentially…
Let $K$ be a compact subset of $\bar{\bold C} ={\bold R}^2$ and let $K^c$ denote its complement. We say $K\in HR$, $K$ is holomorphically removable, if whenever $F:\bar{\bold C} \to\bar{\bold C}$ is a homeomorphism and $F$ is holomorphic…
We discuss removability problems concerning differentiability and pointwise Lipschitz conditions for functions of a real variable. We prove that, in each of the settings under consideration, a set is removable if and only if it has no…
In a complete metric space equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a $(1,1)$-Poincar\'e inequality, we show that every set satisfying a suitable capacitary density condition is removable for Newton-Sobolev functions.
We generalize a classical theorem of Besicovitch, showing that, for any positive integers $k<n$, if $E\subset \mathbb R^n$ is a Souslin set which is not $\mathcal{H}^k$-$\sigma$-finite, then $E$ contains a purely unrectifiable closed set…
Holomorphic removability is of importance in dynanical systems theory. P.W.Jones found that Sobolev removability can serve as a substitute. He proved a strong strong result for H\"older domains. The present work gives some results on the…
A full interpolation theory for Sobolev functions with smoothness between 0 and 1 and vanishing trace on a part of the boundary of an open set is established. Geometric assumptions are of mostly measure theoretic nature and reach beyond…
We establish that a closed set $\mathcal{S}$ is removable for $\alpha$-H\"older continuous $\mathscr{A}$-harmonic functions in a reversible Finsler manifold $(\Omega, F, \mathtt{V})$ of dimension $n \geq 2$, provided that (under certain…
We present a comprehensive survey on removability of compact plane sets with respect to various classes of holomorphic functions. We also discuss some applications and several open questions, some of which are new.
We establish that a closed set $E$ is removable for $C^{0,\alpha}$ H\"{o}lder continuous $p(x)$-harmonic functions in a bounded open domain $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq 2$, provided that for each compact subset $K$ of $E$, the…
