We study a measure-theoretic notion of connectedness for sets of finite perimeter in the setting of doubling metric measure spaces supporting a weak $(1,1)$-Poincar\'{e} inequality. The two main results we obtain are a decomposition theorem…
Bonicatto--Pasqualetto--Rajala (2020) proved that a decomposition theorem for sets of finite perimeter into indecomposable sets, known to hold in Euclidean spaces, holds also in complete metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure,…
In the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure that supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that a set $E$ is of finite perimeter if and only if $\mathcal H(\partial^1 I_E)<\infty$, that is, if and only if the…
Federer's characterization states that a set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is of finite perimeter if and only if $\mathcal H^{n-1}(\partial^*E)<\infty$. Here the measure-theoretic boundary $\partial^*E$ consists of those points where both $E$ and…
In a complete metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we study strict subsets, i.e. sets whose variational capacity with respect to a larger reference set is finite, in the case $p=1$.…
Federer's characterization of sets of finite perimeter states (in Euclidean spaces) that a set is of finite perimeter if and only if the measure-theoretic boundary of the set has finite Hausdorff measure of codimension one. In complete…
In a complete metric space that is equipped with a doubling measure and supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we prove a new Cartan-type property for the fine topology in the case $p=1$. Then we use this property to prove the existence of…
For a complete noncompact connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry, we prove a compactness result for sequences of finite perimeter sets with uniformly bounded volume and perimeter in a larger space obtained by adding limit…
Motivated by the analysis and geometry of metric-measure structures in infinite dimensions, we study the category of extended metric-topological spaces, along with many of its distinguished subcategories (such as the one of compact spaces).…
We study the space of complete Riemannian metrics of nonnegative curvature on the plane equipped with the C^k topology. If k is infinite, we show that the space is homeomorphic to the separable Hilbert space. For any k we prove that the…
In these notes we give a brief introduction to decomposition theory and we summarize some classical and well-known results. The main question is that if a partitioning of a topological space (in other words a decomposition) is given, then…
Ends and end cohomology are powerful invariants for the study of noncompact spaces. We present a self-contained exposition of the topological theory of ends and prove novel extensions including the existence of an exhaustion of a proper…
We prove two theorems which allow one to recognize indecomposable subcontinua of closed surfaces without boundary. If $X$ is a subcontinuum of a closed surface $S$, we call the components of $S \setminus X$ the complementary domains of $X$.…
In the setting of a metric space equipped with a doubling measure that supports a Poincar\'e inequality, we show that any set of finite perimeter can be approximated in the BV norm by a set whose topological and measure theoretic boundaries…
For a complete noncompact connected Riemannian manifold with bounded geometry, we prove the existence of isoperimetric regions in a larger space obtained by adding finitely many limit manifolds at infinity. As one of many possible…
We describe the order type of range sets of compact ultrametrics and show that an ultrametrizable infinite topological space $(X, \tau)$ is compact iff the range sets are order isomorphic for any two ultrametrics compatible with the…
We study functions of least gradient as well as related superminimizers and solutions of obstacle problems in metric spaces that are equipped with a doubling measure and support a Poincar\'e inequality. We show a standard weak Harnack…
A metric space is indivisible if for any partition of it into finitely many pieces one piece contains an isometric copy of the whole space. Continuing our investigation of indivisible metric spaces, we show that a countable ultrametric…
A topological space is iso-dense if it has a dense set of isolated points. A topological space is scattered if each of its non-empty subspaces has an isolated point. In $\mathbf{ZF}$, in the absence of the axiom of choice, basic properties…
The topological entropy of a continuous self-map of a compact metric space can be defined in several distinct ways; when the space is not assumed compact, these definitions can lead to distinct invariants. The original, purely topological…
