Similarity:

Using the exact representation of Carnot-Carathéodory balls in the Heisenberg group, we prove that: 1. H n d z , t = 1 in the classical sense for all z , t H n with z 0 , where d is the distance from the origin; 2. Metric balls are not optimal isoperimetric sets in the Heisenberg group.

On some recent developments of the theory of sets of finite perimeter

Luigi Ambrosio (2003)

Similarity:

In this paper we describe some recent progress on the theory of sets of finite perimeter, currents, and rectifiability in metric spaces. We discuss the relation between intrinsic and extrinsic theories for rectifiability

Rectifiability and perimeter in step 2 Groups

Bruno Franchi, Raul Serapioni, Francesco Serra Cassano (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We study finite perimeter sets in step 2 Carnot groups. In this way we extend the classical De Giorgi’s theory, developed in Euclidean spaces by De Giorgi, as well as its generalization, considered by the authors, in Heisenberg groups. A structure theorem for sets of finite perimeter and consequently a divergence theorem are obtained. Full proofs of these results, comments and an exhaustive bibliography can be found in our preprint (2001).

Blow-up of regular submanifolds in Heisenberg groups and applications

Valentino Magnani (2006)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

We obtain a blow-up theorem for regular submanifolds in the Heisenberg group, where intrinsic dilations are used. Main consequence of this result is an explicit formula for the density of (p+1)-dimensional spherical Hausdorff measure restricted to a p-dimensional submanifold with respect to the Riemannian surface measure. We explicitly compute this formula in some simple examples and we present a lower semicontinuity result for the spherical Hausdorff measure with respect to the weak...
