Tangential behavior of functions and conical densities of Hausdorff measures.
2005
We construct a $C^1$-function $f\colon [0,1]\to \mathbb{R}$ such that for almost all $x\in(0,1)$, there is $r>0$ for which $f(y)>f(x)+f'(x)(y-x)$ when $y\in(x,x+r)$ and $f(y)< f(x)+f'(x)(y-x)$ when $y\in(x-r,x)$. The existence of such functions is related to a problem concerning conical density properties of Hausdorff measures on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also discuss the tangential behavior of typical $C^1$-functions, using an improvement of Jarnik's theorem on essential derived numbers
Removable sets for intrinsic metric and for holomorphic functions
2019
We study the subsets of metric spaces that are negligible for the infimal length of connecting curves; such sets are called metrically removable. In particular, we show that every totally disconnected set with finite Hausdorff measure of codimension 1 is metrically removable, which answers a question raised by Hakobyan and Herron. The metrically removable sets are shown to be related to other classes of "thin" sets that appeared in the literature. They are also related to the removability problems for classes of holomorphic functions with restrictions on the derivative.
Riesz transform and vertical oscillation in the Heisenberg group
2023
We study the $L^{2}$-boundedness of the $3$-dimensional (Heisenberg) Riesz transform on intrinsic Lipschitz graphs in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$. Inspired by the notion of vertical perimeter, recently defined and studied by Lafforgue, Naor, and Young, we first introduce new scale and translation invariant coefficients $\operatorname{osc}_{\Omega}(B(q,r))$. These coefficients quantify the vertical oscillation of a domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{H}$ around a point $q \in \partial \Omega$, at scale $r > 0$. We then proceed to show that if $\Omega$ is a domain bounded by an intrinsic Lipschitz graph $\Gamma$, and $$\int_{0}^{\infty} \operatorname{osc}_{\Omega}(B(q,r)) \, \frac{dr}{…
Two examples related to conical energies
2022
In a recent article we introduced and studied conical energies. We used them to prove three results: a characterization of rectifiable measures, a characterization of sets with big pieces of Lipschitz graphs, and a sufficient condition for boundedness of nice singular integral operators. In this note we give two examples related to sharpness of these results. One of them is due to Joyce and M\"{o}rters, the other is new and could be of independent interest as an example of a relatively ugly set containing big pieces of Lipschitz graphs.
