Absolutely continuous functions with values in a Banach space

2017

Abstract Let Ω be an open subset of R n , n > 1 , and let X be a Banach space. We prove that α-absolutely continuous functions f : Ω → X are continuous and differentiable (in some sense) almost everywhere in Ω.

Radon–Nikodym Property and Area Formula for Banach Homogeneous Group Targets

2013

We prove a Rademacher-type theorem for Lipschitz mappings from a subset of a Carnot group to a Banach homogeneous group, equipped with a suitably weakened Radon-Nikodym property. We provide a metric area formula that applies to these mappings and more generally to all almost everywhere metrically differentiable Lipschitz mappings defined on a Carnot group. peerReviewed

Everywhere differentiability of viscosity solutions to a class of Aronsson's equations

2017

For any open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ and $n\ge 2$, we establish everywhere differentiability of viscosity solutions to the Aronsson equation $$ =0 \quad \rm in\ \ \Omega, $$ where $H$ is given by $$H(x,\,p)==\sum_{i,\,j=1}^na^{ij}(x)p_i p_j,\ x\in\Omega, \ p\in\mathbb R^n, $$ and $A=(a^{ij}(x))\in C^{1,1}(\bar\Omega,\mathbb R^{n\times n})$ is uniformly elliptic. This extends an earlier theorem by Evans and Smart \cite{es11a} on infinity harmonic functions.

METRIC DIFFERENTIABILITY OF LIPSCHITZ MAPS

2013

AbstractAn extension of Rademacher’s theorem is proved for Lipschitz mappings between Banach spaces without the Radon–Nikodým property.

The forgotten mathematical legacy of Peano

2019

International audience; The formulations that Peano gave to many mathematical notions at the end of the 19th century were so perfect and modern that they have become standard today. A formal language of logic that he created, enabled him to perceive mathematics with great precision and depth. He described mathematics axiomatically basing the reasoning exclusively on logical and set-theoretical primitive terms and properties, which was revolutionary at that time. Yet, numerous Peano’s contributions remain either unremembered or underestimated.

Universal differentiability sets and maximal directional derivatives in Carnot groups

2019

We show that every Carnot group G of step 2 admits a Hausdorff dimension one `universal differentiability set' N such that every real-valued Lipschitz map on G is Pansu differentiable at some point of N. This relies on the fact that existence of a maximal directional derivative of f at a point x implies Pansu differentiability at the same point x. We show that such an implication holds in Carnot groups of step 2 but fails in the Engel group which has step 3.

On the problem of regularity in the Sobolev space Wloc1,n

2009

Abstract We prove that a variant of the Hencl's notion of A C λ n -mapping (see [S. Hencl, On the notions of absolute continuity for functions of several variables, Fund. Math. 173 (2002) 175–189]), in which λ is not a constant, produces a new solution to the problem of regularity in the Sobolev space W loc 1 , n .

Tangent lines and Lipschitz differentiability spaces

2015

We study the existence of tangent lines, i.e. subsets of the tangent space isometric to the real line, in tangent spaces of metric spaces. We first revisit the almost everywhere metric differentiability of Lipschitz continuous curves. We then show that any blow-up done at a point of metric differentiability and of density one for the domain of the curve gives a tangent line. Metric differentiability enjoys a Borel measurability property and this will permit us to use it in the framework of Lipschitz differentiability spaces. We show that any tangent space of a Lipschitz differentiability space contains at least $n$ distinct tangent lines, obtained as the blow-up of $n$ Lipschitz curves, whe…

RADEMACHER'S THEOREM IN BANACH SPACES WITHOUT RNP

2017

Abstract We improve a Duda’s theorem concerning metric and w *-Gâteaux differentiability of Lipschitz mappings, by replacing the σ-ideal 𝓐 of Aronszajn null sets [ARONSZAJN, N.: Differentiability of Lipschitzian mappings between Banach spaces, Studia Math. 57 (1976), 147–190], with the smaller σ-ideal 𝓐 of Preiss-Zajíček null sets [PREISS, D.—ZAJÍČEK, L.: Directional derivatives of Lipschitz functions, Israel J. Math. 125 (2001), 1–27]. We also prove the inclusion C̃ o ⊂ 𝓐, where C̃ o is the σ-ideal of Preiss null sets [PREISS, D.: Gâteaux differentiability of cone-monotone and pointwise Lipschitz functions, Israel J. Math. 203 (2014), 501–534].
