BiLipschitz decomposition of Lipschitz maps between Carnot groups

Metric Geometry 2015-09-01 v2

Abstract

Let f:GHf : G \to H be a Lipschitz map between two Carnot groups. We show that if BB is ball of GG, then there exists a subset ZBZ \subset B, whose image in HH under ff has small Hausdorff content, such that B\ZB \backslash Z can be decomposed into a controlled number of pieces, the restriction of ff on each of which is quantitatively biLipschitz. This extends a result of \cite{meyerson}, which proved the same result, but with the restriction that GG has an appropriate discretization. We provide an example of a Carnot group not admitting such a discretization.
