Infinitesimal Structure of Differentiability Spaces, and Metric Differentiation

Jeff Cheeger, Bruce Kleiner, Andrea Schioppa (2016)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

Similarity:

We prove metric differentiation for differentiability spaces in the sense of Cheeger [10, 14, 27]. As corollarieswe give a new proof of one of the main results of [14], a proof that the Lip-lip constant of any Lip-lip space in the sense of Keith [27] is equal to 1, and new nonembeddability results.

Gehring's lemma for metrics and higher integrability of the gradient for minimizers of noncoercive variational functionals

Bruno Franchi, Francesco Serra Cassano (1996)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We prove a higher integrability result - similar to Gehring's lemma - for the metric space associated with a family of Lipschitz continuous vector fields by means of sub-unit curves. Applications are given to show the higher integrability of the gradient of minimizers of some noncoercive variational functionals.

Menger curvature and Lipschitz parametrizations in metric spaces

Immo Hahlomaa (2005)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

We show that pointwise bounds on the Menger curvature imply Lipschitz parametrization for general compact metric spaces. We also give some estimates on the optimal Lipschitz constants of the parametrizing maps for the metric spaces in Ω(ε), the class of bounded metric spaces E such that the maximum angle for every triple in E is at least π/2 + arcsinε. Finally, we extend Peter Jones's travelling salesman theorem to general metric spaces.

Tangent Lines and Lipschitz Differentiability Spaces

Fabio Cavalletti, Tapio Rajala (2016)

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces

Similarity:

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...

On the Lifshits Constant for Hyperspaces

K. Leśniak (2007)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

Similarity:

The Lifshits theorem states that any k-uniformly Lipschitz map with a bounded orbit on a complete metric space X has a fixed point provided k < ϰ(X) where ϰ(X) is the so-called Lifshits constant of X. For many spaces we have ϰ(X) > 1. It is interesting whether we can use the Lifshits theorem in the theory of iterated function systems. Therefore we investigate the value of the Lifshits constant for several classes of hyperspaces.

Some remarks about metric spaces, spherical mappings, functions and their derivatives.

Stephen Semmes (1996)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

If p ∈ R, then we have the radial projection map from R {p} onto a sphere. Sometimes one can construct similar mappings on metric spaces even when the space is nontrivially different from Euclidean space, so that the existence of such a mapping becomes a sign of approximately Euclidean geometry. The existence of such spherical mappings can be used to derive estimates for the values of a function in terms of its gradient, which can then be used to derive Sobolev inequalities, etc. In...

Bilipschitz embeddings of metric spaces into euclidean spaces.

Stephen Semmes (1999)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

Similarity:

When does a metric space admit a bilipschitz embedding into some finite-dimensional Euclidean space? There does not seem to be a simple answer to this question. Results of Assouad [A1], [A2], [A3] do provide a simple answer if one permits some small ("snowflake") deformations of the metric, but unfortunately these deformations immediately disrupt some basic aspects of geometry and analysis, like rectifiability, differentiability, and curves of finite length. Here we discuss a (somewhat...

Existence of a common solution for a system of nonlinear integral equations via fixed point methods inb-metric spaces

Oratai Yamaod, Wutiphol Sintunavarat, Yeol Je Cho (2016)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

In this paper we introduce a property and use this property to prove some common fixed point theorems in b-metric space. We also give some fixed point results on b-metric spaces endowed with an arbitrary binary relation which can be regarded as consequences of our main results. As applications, we applying our result to prove the existence of a common solution for the following system of integral equations: x (t) =  ∫ a b K 1  (t,r,x(r)) dr, x (t) =  ∫ a b K 2  (t,r,x(r)) dr,       x ( t ) = ∫ a b K 1 ( t , r , x ( r ) ) d r , x ( t ) = ∫ a b K 2 ( t , r , x ( r ) ) d r , where...

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
