We study a variant of the Whitney extension problem for the space $C^k\Lambda^m_{\omega}(R^n)$ of functions whose partial derivatives of order $k$ satisfy the generalized Zygmund condition. We identify $C^k\Lambda^m_{\omega}(R^n)$ with a…
Whitney's extension problem, i.e., how one can tell whether a function $f : X \to \mathbb R$, $X \subseteq \mathbb R^n$, is the restriction of a $C^m$-function on $\mathbb R^n$, was solved in full generality by Charles Fefferman in 2006. In…
Let $k\in\mathbb{N}_0\cup\{\infty\}$. According to Whitney's extension theorem, each real-valued Whitney $k$-Jet on a closed subset $A\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ can be extended to a $C^k$-function on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Based on Whitney's original…
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…
We prove non-extendability results for Lipschitz maps with target space being jet spaces equipped with a left-invariant Riemannian distance, as well as jet spaces equipped with a left-invariant sub-Riemannian Carnot-Caratheodory distance.…
Let $L^m_p(R^n)$, $p\in [1,\infty]$, be the homogeneous Sobolev space, and let $E\subset R^n$ be a closed set. For each $p>n$ and each non-negative integer $m$ we give an intrinsic characterization of the restrictions to $E$ of $m$-jets…
We study the problem of extending an order-preserving real-valued Lipschitz map defined on a subset of a partially ordered metric space without increasing its Lipschitz constant and preserving its monotonicity. We show that a certain type…
In this announcement we consider the following problem. Let $n,m\geq 1$, $U\subset\mathbb R^n$ open. In this paper we provide a sharp solution to the following Whitney distortion extension problems: (a) Let $\phi:U\to \mathbb R^n$ be a…
We present a coordinate-free version of Fefferman's solution of Whitney's extension problem in the space $C^{m-1,1}(\mathbb{R}^n)$. While the original argument relies on an elaborate induction on collections of partial derivatives, our…
The aim of this article is to prove a Lipschitz extension theorem for partially defined Lipschitz maps to jet spaces endowed with a left-invariant sub-Riemannian Carnot-Carath\'eodory distance. The jet spaces give a model for a certain…
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 revisit Whitney's extension theorem in the ultradifferentiable Roumieu setting. Based on the description of ultradifferentiable classes by weight matrices, we extend results on how growth constraints on Whitney jets on arbitrary compact…
This paper deals with the study of parameter dependence of extensions of Lipschitz mappings from the point of view of continuity. We show that if assuming appropriate curvature bounds for the spaces, the multivalued extension operators that…
The Whitney near extension problem for finite sets in $\mathbb R^d,\, d\geq 2$ asks the following: Let $\phi:E\to \mathbb R^d$ be a near distortion on a finite set $E\subset \mathbb R^d$ with certain geometry. How to decide whether $\phi$…
Let $X=C[0,1]$, and $Y$ be an arbitrary Banach space. Consider a collection of open segments $\{V_i \}\subset X$. Suppose the map $f: \cup_i V_i \to Y$ has $q$ bounded Fr\'echet derivatives ($q=0,1,...,\infty$), and $f$ and all its…
Let $d$ be a metric on $R^n$ and let $C^{m,(d)}(R^n)$ be the space of $C^m$-function on $R^n$ whose partial derivatives of order $m$ belong to the space $Lip(R^n;d)$. We show that the homogeneous Sobolev space $L^{m+1}_p(R^n),p>n,$ can be…
We prove a variant of the standard Whitney extension theorem for $\mathcal C^m(\mathbb R^n)$, in which the norm of the extension operator has polynomial growth in $n$ for fixed $m$.
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 characterize which mappings from a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$ into the Heisenberg group can be extended to a $C^{m,\omega}$ horizontal curve for a given modulus of continuity $\omega$. We motivate our characterization by showing that…
Given a compact set $K\subset {\Bbb R}^d,$ let ${\mathcal E}(K)$ denote the space of Whitney jets on $K$. The compact set $K$ is said to have the extension property if there exists a continuous linear extension operator $W:{\mathcal E}(K)…
