We prove that the 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure restricted to a simple real analytic curve $\gamma :ℝ\to {ℝ}^N$, $N\ge 2$, is locally 1-monotone.

Let $F=f^{\left(i\right)}:1\le i\le N$ be a family of Hölder continuous functions and let ${\phi }_i:1\le i\le N$ be a conformal iterated function system. Lindsay and Mauldin’s paper [Nonlinearity 15 (2002)] left an open question whether the lower quantization coefficient for the F-conformal measure on a conformal iterated funcion system satisfying the open set condition is positive. This question was positively answered by Zhu. The goal of this paper is to present a different proof of this result.

Lower semicontinuity results are obtained for multiple integrals of the kind ${\int }_{{ℝ}^n}f(x,{\nabla }_{\mu }u)\mathrm{d}\mu$, where $\mu$ is a given positive measure on ${ℝ}^n$, and the vector-valued function $u$ belongs to the Sobolev space $H_{\mu }^{1,p}({ℝ}^n,{ℝ}^m)$ associated with $\mu$. The proofs are essentially based on blow-up techniques, and a significant role is played therein by the concepts of tangent space and of tangent measures to $\mu$. More precisely, for fully general $\mu$, a notion of quasiconvexity for $f$ along the tangent bundle to $\mu$, turns out to be necessary for lower...

A theorem of Lusin states that every Borel function onRis equal almost everywhere to the derivative of a continuous function. This result was later generalized to Rn in works of Alberti and Moonens-Pfeffer. In this note, we prove direct analogs of these results on a large class of metric measure spaces, those with doubling measures and Poincaré inequalities, which admit a form of differentiation by a famous theorem of Cheeger.
