We characterize those mappings from a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$ into the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ which can be extended to a $C^{m}$ horizontal curve in $\mathbb{H}^{n}$. The characterization combines the classical Whitney…

In the setting of horizontal curves in the Heisenberg group, we prove a $C^{m,\omega}$ finiteness principle, a $C^{m,\omega}$ Lusin approximation result, a $C^{\infty}$ Whitney extension result, and a $C^{\infty}$ Lusin approximation…

For a real valued function defined on a compact set $K \subset \mathbb{R}^m$, the classical Whitney Extension Theorem from 1934 gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a $C^k$ extension to $\mathbb{R}^m$. In this…

We establish a $C^m$ Whitney extension theorem for horizontal curves in free step~$2$ Carnot groups $\mathbb{G}_r$ for an arbitrary number of generators $r \geq 2$. This extends existing results in the Heisenberg group. New techniques…

Consider the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$. In this paper, we answer the following question: given a compact set $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ and a continuous map $f:K \to \mathbb{H}$, when is there a horizontal $C^m$ curve…

We show that definable Whitney jets of class $C^{m,\omega}$, where $m$ is a nonnegative integer and $\omega$ is a modulus of continuity, are the restrictions of definable $C^{m,\omega}$-functions; "definable" refers to an arbitrary given…

Let $C$ be a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ (not necessarily convex), $f:C\to\mathbb{R}$ be a function, and $G:C\to\mathbb{R}^n$ be a uniformly continuous function, with modulus of continuity $\omega$. We provide a necessary and sufficient…

In this article we study the validity of the Whitney $C^1$ extension property for horizontal curves in sub-Riemannian manifolds endowed with 1-jets that satisfy a first-order Taylor expansion compatibility condition. We first consider the…

In this paper we introduce a general notion of weak extension property for embeddings induced by a group actions. As an example, for the group H(M, m) of measure-preserving homeomorphisms of a noncompact manifold M, we deduce weak type…

We show that, given an absolutely continuous horizontal curve $\gamma$ in the Heisenberg group, there is a $C^1$ horizontal curve $\Gamma$ such that $\Gamma=\gamma$ and $\Gamma'=\gamma'$ outside a set of small measure. Conversely, we…

We prove a $C^m$ Lusin approximation theorem for horizontal curves in the Heisenberg group. This states that every absolutely continuous horizontal curve whose horizontal velocity is $m-1$ times $L^1$ differentiable almost everywhere…

Given $X$ a Hilbert space, $\omega$ a modulus of continuity, $E$ an arbitrary subset of $X$, and functions $f:E\to\mathbb{R}$, $G:E\to X$, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the jet $(f,G)$ to admit an extension $(F, \nabla…

We show that, in arbitrary Carnot groups, pliability in a subset of directions is sufficient to guarantee the existence of a Whitney-type extension and a Lusin approximation for curves with tangent vectors in the same set of directions. We…

The Whitney extension theorem is a classical result in analysis giving a necessary and sufficient condition for a function defined on a closed set to be extendable to the whole space with a given class of regularity. It has been adapted to…

The purpose of this paper is to address a manifold-based version of Whitney's extension problem: Given a compact set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, how can we tell if there exists a $d$-dimensional, $C^m$-smooth manifold $\mathcal{M}\supset E$? We…
