Let $A(\cdot)$ be an $(n+1)\times (n+1)$ uniformly elliptic matrix with H\"older continuous real coefficients and let $\mathcal E_A(x,y)$ be the fundamental solution of the PDE $\mathrm{div} A(\cdot) \nabla u =0$ in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$. Let…
We consider a uniformly elliptic operator $L_A$ in divergence form associated with an $(n+1)\times(n+1)$-matrix $A$ with real, merely bounded, and possibly non-symmetric coefficients. If $$\omega_A(r)=\sup_{x\in \mathbb{R}^{n+1}}…
In this paper we show that if $\mu$ is a Borel measure in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ with growth of order $n$, so that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform $R_\mu$ is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$, and $B\subset\mathbb R^{n+1}$ is a ball with $\mu(B)\approx…
For $n \geq 2$, we consider the operator $L_A = -\mathrm{div }(A(\cdot)\nabla)$, where $A$ is a uniformly elliptic $(n+1)\times(n+1)$ matrix with variable coefficients, a Radon measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and the associated…
In this paper we explore the connection between quantitative rectifiability of measures and the $L^2$ boundedness of the codimension one Riesz transform. Among other things, we prove the following. Let $\mu$ be a Radon measure in $\mathbb…
A Radon measure $\mu$ is $n$-rectifiable if it is absolutely continuous with respect to $\mathcal{H}^n$ and $\mu$-almost all of $\text{supp}\,\mu$ can be covered by Lipschitz images of $\mathbb{R}^n$. In this paper we give two sufficient…
Characterizing rectifiability of Radon measures in Euclidean space has led to fundamental contributions to geometric measure theory. Conditions involving existence of principal values of certain singular integrals…
We provide a sufficient geometric condition for $\mathbb{R}^n$ to be countably $(\mu,m)$ rectifiable of class $\mathscr{C}^{1,\alpha}$ (using the terminology of Federer), where $\mu$ is a Radon measure having positive lower density and…
For a Radon measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, define $C^n_\mu(x, t)= \ (\frac{1}{t^n} \ |\int_{B(x,t)} \frac{x-y}{t} \, d\mu(y)\ | \ )$. This coefficient quantifies how symmetric the measure $\mu$ is by comparing the center of mass at a…
A Radon measure $\mu$ is $n$-rectifiable if $\mu\ll\mathcal{H}^n$ and $\mu$-almost all of $\text{supp}\,\mu$ can be covered by Lipschitz images of $\mathbb{R}^n$. In this paper we give a necessary condition for rectifiability in terms of…
This paper is devoted to the proof of two related results. The first one asserts that if $\mu$ is a Radon measure in $\mathbb R^d$ satisfying $$\limsup_{r\to 0} \frac{\mu(B(x,r))}{r}>0\quad \text{ and }\quad…
In this paper it is shown that if $\mu$ is a finite Radon measure in $\mathbb R^d$ which is $n$-rectifiable and $1\leq p\leq 2$, then $$\int_0^\infty \beta_{\mu,p}^n(x,r)^2\,\frac{dr}r<\infty \quad {for $\mu$-a.e. $x\in\mathbb R^d$,}$$…
Consider a totally irregular measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, that is, the upper density $\limsup_{r\to0}\frac{\mu(B(x,r))}{(2r)^n}$ is positive $\mu$-a.e.\ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and the lower density…
Let $\mu$ be a finite Radon measure in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with polynomial growth of degree $n$, although not necessarily $n$-AD-regular. We prove that under some geometric conditions on $\mu$ that are closely related to rectifiability and…
We characterize Radon measures $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ that are $d$-rectifiable in the sense that their supports are covered up to $\mu$-measure zero by countably many $d$-dimensional Lipschitz graphs and $\mu \ll \mathcal{H}^{d}$. The…
We say a measure is $C^{1,\alpha}$ $d$-rectifiable if there is a countable union of $C^{1,\alpha}$ $d$-surfaces whose complement has measure zero. We provide sufficient conditions for a Radon measure in $\mathbb{R}^n$ to be $C^{1,\alpha}$…
We prove that a Radon measure $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ can be written as $\mu=\sum_{i=0}^n\mu_i$, where each of the $\mu_i$ is an $i$-dimensional rectifiable measure if and only if for every Lipschitz function $f:\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}$…
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…
Let $\mu$ be a Radon measure on $\mathbb{R}^d$. We define and study conical energies $\mathcal{E}_{\mu,p}(x,V,\alpha)$, which quantify the portion of $\mu$ lying in the cone with vertex $x\in\mathbb{R}^d$, direction $V\in G(d,d-n)$, and…
For all $1\leq m\leq n-1$, we investigate the interaction of locally finite measures in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with the family of $m$-dimensional Lipschitz graphs. For instance, we characterize Radon measures $\mu$, which are carried by Lipschitz…
