We introduce new flatness coefficients, which we call $\iota$-numbers, for Ahlfors $k$-regular sets in metric spaces ($k\in \mathbb{N}$). Using these coefficients for $k=1$, we characterize uniform $1$-rectifiability in rather general…
We investigate the geometry of sets in Euclidean and infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces. We establish sufficient conditions that ensure a set of points is contained in the image of a $(1/s)$-H\"older continuous map $f:[0,1]\rightarrow…
In his 1990 Inventiones paper, P. Jones characterized subsets of rectifiable curves in the plane via a multiscale sum of $\beta$-numbers. These $\beta$-numbers are geometric quantities measuring how far a given set deviates from a best…
We prove a version of Peter Jones' Analyst's traveling salesman theorem in a class of highly non-Euclidean metric spaces introduced by Laakso and generalized by Cheeger-Kleiner. These spaces are constructed as inverse limits of metric…
Quasisymmetry is a well-studied property of homeomorphisms between metric spaces, and Ahlfors regular conformal dimension is a quasisymmetric invariant. In the present paper, we consider the Ahlfors regular conformal dimension of metrics on…
We define a discrete Menger-type curvature of d+2 points in a real separable Hilbert space H by an appropriate scaling of the squared volume of the corresponding (d+1)-simplex. We then form a continuous curvature of an Ahlfors d-regular…
We study some Riemannian metrics on the space of regular smooth curves in the plane, viewed as the orbit space of maps from $S^1$ to the plane modulo the group of diffeomorphisms of $S^1$, acting as reparameterizations. In particular we…
We characterize $Q$-dimensional Ahlfors regular spaces among trees' boundaries and show how to construct, for each $0 < \alpha < Q$, an $\alpha$-regular subspace. As an application, we give an alternative simple proof of the existence of…
Reparametrization invariant Sobolev metrics on spaces of regular curves have been shown to be of importance in the field of mathematical shape analysis. For practical applications, one usually discretizes the space of smooth curves and…
We prove that closed manifolds admitting a generic metric whose sectional curvature is locally quasi-constant are graphs of space forms. In the more general setting of QC spaces where sets of isotropic points are arbitrary, under suitable…
We study one dimensional sets (Hausdorff dimension) lying in a Hilbert space. The aim is to classify subsets of Hilbert spaces that are contained in a connected set of finite Hausdorff length. We do so by extending and improving results of…
Given a metric space $X$, an Analyst's Traveling Salesman Theorem for $X$ gives a quantitative relationship between the length of a shortest curve containing any subset $E\subseteq X$ and a multi-scale sum measuring the ``flatness'' of $E$.…
It is well-known that the class of piecewise smooth curves together with a smooth Riemannian metric induces a metric space structure on a manifold. However, little is known about the minimal regularity needed to analyze curves and…
In his 1990 Inventiones paper, P. Jones characterized subsets of rectifiable curves in the plane, using a multiscale sum of what is now known as Jones $\beta$-numbers, numbers measuring flatness in a given scale and location. This work was…
We prove that uniformly disconnected subsets of metric measure spaces with controlled geometry (complete, Ahlfors regular, supporting a Poincare inequality, and a mild topological condition) are contained in a quasisymmetric arc. This…
Bonk and Kleiner showed that any metric sphere which is Ahlfors 2-regular and linearly locally contractible is quasisymmetrically equivalent to the standard sphere, in a quantitative way. We extend this result to arbitrary metric compact…
We prove that the Ahlfors regular conformal dimension is upper semicontinuous with respect to Gromov-Hausdorff convergence when restricted to the class of uniformly perfect, uniformly quasi-selfsimilar metric spaces. Moreover we show the…
Given a Finsler space (M,F) on a manifold M, the averaging method associates to Finslerian geometric objects affine geometric objects} living on $M$. In particular, a Riemannian metric is associated to the fundamental tensor $g$ and an…
We generalize some characterizations of uniformly rectifiable (UR) sets to sets whose Hausdorff content is lower regular (and in particular, do not need to be Ahlfors regular). For example, David and Semmes showed that, given an Ahlfors…
In this paper the geometry of normal metric contact pair manifolds is studied under the flatness of conformal, concircular and quasi-conformal curvature tensors. It is proved that a conformal flat normal metric contact pair manifold is an…
