In this paper we resolve in the affirmative a question of Heinonen on the absolute continuity of quasisymmetric mappings defined on subsets of Euclidean spaces. The main ingredients in the proof are extension results for quasisymmetric mappings and metric doubling measures.

How can one recognize when a metric space is bilipschitz equivalent to an Euclidean space? One should not take the abstraction of metric spaces too seriously here; subsets of R are already quite interesting. It is easy to generate geometric conditions which are necessary for bilipschitz equivalence, but it is not clear that such conditions should ever be sufficient. The main point of this paper is that the optimistic conjectures about the existence of bilipschitz parametrizations are...

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...

We obtain (weighted) Poincaré type inequalities for vector fields satisfying the Hörmander condition for p < 1 under some assumptions on the subelliptic gradient of the function. Such inequalities hold on Boman domains associated with the underlying Carnot- Carathéodory metric. In particular, they remain true for solutions to certain classes of subelliptic equations. Our results complement the earlier results in these directions for p ≥ 1.

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.

There have been recent attempts to develop the theory of Sobolev spaces on metric spaces that do not admit any differentiable structure. We prove that certain definitions are equivalent. We also define the spaces in the limiting case .

In [6], Guy David introduced some methods for finding controlled behavior in Lipschitz mappings with substantial images (in terms of measure). Under suitable conditions, David produces subsets on which the given mapping is bilipschitz, with uniform bounds for the bilipschitz constant and the size of the subset. This has applications for boundedness of singular integral operators and uniform rectifiability of sets, as in [6], [7], [11], [13]. Some special cases of David's results, concerning...
