We resolve a problem posed by Mattila, Serapioni and Serra Cassano concerning the role of density assumptions in the characterization of rectifiable sets of low codimension in Heisenberg groups. Specifically, we prove that the positive…

We study the removability of compact sets for continuous Sobolev functions. In particular, we focus on sets with infinitely many complementary components, called "detour sets", which resemble the Sierpi\'nski gasket. The main theorem is…

In the present paper we sketch the proof of the fact that for any open connected set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\geq 1$, and any $E\subset \partial \Omega$ with $0<\mathcal{H}^n(E)<\infty$, absolute continuity of the harmonic…

An important theorem of geometric measure theory (first proved by Besicovitch and Davies for Euclidean space) says that every analytic set of non-zero $s$-dimensional Hausdorff measure $\mathcal H^s$ contains a closed subset of non-zero…

We show that if $n\geq 1$, $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^{n+1}$ is a connected domain with porous boundary, and $E\subset \partial\Omega$ is a set of finite and positive Hausdorff $H^{n}$-measure upon which the harmonic measure $\omega$ is…

One goal of geometric measure theory is to understand how measures in the plane or higher dimensional Euclidean space interact with families of lower dimensional sets. An important dichotomy arises between the class of rectifiable measures,…

Let $E\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$, be a closed, Ahlfors-David regular set of dimension $n$ satisfying the "Riesz Transform bound" $$\sup_{\varepsilon>0}\int_E\left|\int_{\{y\in E:|x-y|>\varepsilon\}}\frac{x-y}{|x-y|^{n+1}} f(y)…

This paper is concerned with the structure of Gromov-Hausdorff limit spaces $(M^n_i,g_i,p_i)\stackrel{d_{GH}}{\longrightarrow} (X^n,d,p)$ of Riemannian manifolds satisfying a uniform lower Ricci curvature bound $Rc_{M^n_i}\geq -(n-1)$ as…

If a compact set K \subset R^2 contains a positive-dimensional family of line-segments in positively many directions, then K has positive measure.

Let $E\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\ge 2$, be a uniformly rectifiable set of dimension $n$. Then bounded harmonic functions in $\Omega:= \mathbb{R}^{n+1}\setminus E$ satisfy Carleson measure estimates, and are "$\varepsilon$-approximable".…

We show that an Ahlfors $d$-regular set $E$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ is uniformly rectifiable if the set of pairs $(x,r)\in E\times (0,\infty)$ for which there exists $y \in B(x,r)$ and $0<t<r$ satisfying $\mathscr{H}^{d}_{\infty}(E\cap…

Let $p$ be a prime, let $S$ be a non-empty subset of $\mathbb{F}_p$ and let $0<\epsilon\leq 1$. We show that there exists a constant $C=C(p, \epsilon)$ such that for every positive integer $k$, whenever $\phi_1, \dots, \phi_k:…

In the setting of Carnot groups, we are concerned with the rectifiability problem for subsets that have finite sub-Riemannian perimeter. We introduce a new notion of rectifiability that is, possibly, weaker than the one introduced by…

Following a recent paper by X. Tolsa [JFA, 2008] we show that the finiteness of square function associated with the Riesz transforms with respect to Hausdorff measure $H^n$ ($n$ is interger) on a set $E$ implies that $E$ is rectifiable.
