Bonnesenʼs inequality for John domains in Rn
2012
Abstract We prove sharp quantitative isoperimetric inequalities for John domains in R n . We show that the Bonnesen-style inequalities hold true in R n under the John domain assumption which rules out cusps. Our main tool is a proof of the isoperimetric inequality for symmetric domains which gives an explicit estimate for the isoperimetric deficit. We use the sharp quantitative inequalities proved in Fusco et al. (2008) [7] and Fuglede (1989) [4] to reduce our problem to symmetric domains.
Quasisymmetric Koebe uniformization with weak metric doubling measures
2020
We give a characterization of metric spaces quasisymmetrically equivalent to a finitely connected circle domain. This result generalizes the uniformization of Ahlfors 2-regular spaces by Merenkov and Wildrick. peerReviewed
On the inverse absolute continuity of quasiconformal mappings on hypersurfaces
2018
We construct quasiconformal mappings $f\colon \mathbb{R}^{3} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{3}$ for which there is a Borel set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^2 \times \{0\}$ of positive Lebesgue $2$-measure whose image $f(E)$ has Hausdorff $2$-measure zero. This gives a solution to the open problem of inverse absolute continuity of quasiconformal mappings on hypersurfaces, attributed to Gehring. By implication, our result also answers questions of V\"ais\"al\"a and Astala--Bonk--Heinonen.
A quantitative isoperimetric inequality for fractional perimeters
2011
Abstract Recently Frank and Seiringer have shown an isoperimetric inequality for nonlocal perimeter functionals arising from Sobolev seminorms of fractional order. This isoperimetric inequality is improved here in a quantitative form.
Unbounded C$^*$-seminorms and $*$-Representations of Partial *-Algebras
2009
The main purpose of this paper is to construct *-representations from unbounded C*-seminorms on partial *-algebras and to investigate their *-representations. © Heldermann Verlag.
Abstract and concrete tangent modules on Lipschitz differentiability spaces
2020
We construct an isometric embedding from Gigli's abstract tangent module into the concrete tangent module of a space admitting a (weak) Lipschitz differentiable structure, and give two equivalent conditions which characterize when the embedding is an isomorphism. Together with arguments from a recent article by Bate--Kangasniemi--Orponen, this equivalence is used to show that the ${\rm Lip}-{\rm lip}$ -type condition ${\rm lip} f\le C|Df|$ implies the existence of a Lipschitz differentiable structure, and moreover self-improves to ${\rm lip} f =|Df|$. We also provide a direct proof of a result by Gigli and the second author that, for a space with a strongly rectifiable decomposition, Gigli'…
On the notion of parallel transport on RCD spaces
2019
We propose a general notion of parallel transport on RCD spaces, prove an unconditioned uniqueness result and existence under suitable assumptions on the space. peerReviewed
Nowhere differentiable intrinsic Lipschitz graphs
2021
We construct intrinsic Lipschitz graphs in Carnot groups with the property that, at every point, there exist infinitely many different blow-up limits, none of which is a homogeneous subgroup. This provides counterexamples to a Rademacher theorem for intrinsic Lipschitz graphs.
Rectifiability of RCD(K,N) spaces via δ-splitting maps
2021
In this note we give simplified proofs of rectifiability of RCD(K,N) spaces as metric measure spaces and lower semicontinuity of the essential dimension, via -splitting maps. The arguments are inspired by the Cheeger-Colding theory for Ricci limits and rely on the second order differential calculus developed by Gigli and on the convergence and stability results by Ambrosio-Honda. peerReviewed
Sobolev Spaces and Quasiconformal Mappings on Metric Spaces
2001
Heinonen and I have recently established a theory of quasiconformal mappings on Ahlfors regular Loewner spaces. These spaces are metric spaces that have sufficiently many rectifiable curves in a sense of good estimates on moduli of curve families. The Loewner condition can be conveniently described in terms of Poincare inequalities for pairs of functions and upper gradients. Here an upper gradient plays the role that the length of the gradient of a smooth function has in the Euclidean setting. For example, the Euclidean spaces and Heisenberg groups and the more general Carnot groups admit the type of a Poincare inequality we need. We describe the basics and discuss the associated Sobolev sp…
