Embeddability and rectifiability of Lipschitz differentiability spaces

Abstract

We prove that Lipschitz differentiability spaces which bi-Lipschitz embed into an RNP-space are countably rectifiable. In contrast to earlier methods of Cheeger and Kleiner, our approach does not rely on differentiating RNP-targets, and uses instead decomposability bundles and a careful blow-up analysis. We also present decomposability bundles in a way which avoids the mention of Alberti representations and generalizes the approach of Alberti--Marchese to measures in RNP-spaces. We moreover study fragment-wise differentiability into RNP-targets, give a new ${\rm Lip}-{\rm lip}$-type characterization of RNP-differentiability spaces, and address a question of Le Donne asking for a characterization of spaces $(X,μ)\subset\ell^2$ whose Gromov--Hausdorff tangents are Hausdorff limits of $r^{-1} (X-x)$ in $\ell^2$ as $r\to 0$.

From the Steiner Inellipse to the John Ellipsoid of a Simplex: A Corner-Volume Characterization

For a triangle of area \(T\), a planar corner-area characterization states that an interior point \(M\) lies on the Steiner inellipse precisely when the three corner triangles cut off by the lines through \(M\) parallel to the sides have areas \(T_1,T_2,T_3\) satisfying $$ T_1+T_2+T_3=\frac12 T. $$ We give the corresponding statement for a simplex in arbitrary dimension. If \(S\) is a nondegenerate \(n\)-simplex of volume \(V\) and \(V_1(M),\ldots,V_{n+1}(M)\) are the volumes of the facet-parallel corner simplices determined by \(M\), then $$ M\in\partial E_J(S) \quad\Longleftrightarrow\quad \sum_{i=1}^{n+1}V_i(M)^{2/n}=\frac1n V^{2/n}, $$ where \(E_J(S)\) is the John ellipsoid of \(S\). We also identify the entire corner-volume functional with the central second-moment quadratic of the uniform simplex. The novelty claimed here is limited to the corner-volume formulations and their connections with the planar Steiner-inellipse result; the underlying barycentric, covariance, and John-ellipsoid facts are classical.

The $L_p$ Minkowski problem for $C$-close sets: existence and continuity

Let $C$ be a pointed closed convex cone in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with nonempty interior, and let $S^{n-1}$ denote the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^n$. The $L_p$ Minkowski problem for $C$-close sets is to determine, for a real number $p$ and a nonzero finite Borel measure $μ$ defined on $Ω_{C^\circ}=S^{n-1}\cap \mathrm{int} C^{\circ}$, whether there exists a $C$-close set $\mathds{A}$ such that $μ$ is the $L_p$ surface area measure of $\mathds{A}$. In this paper, we will solve the problem for $p\in (0,1)$ and for $μ$ being a nonzero finite Borel measure on $Ω_{C^\circ}$. Moreover, we establish the continuity of solutions to the $L_p$ Minkowski problem for $p\in [0, 1]$ in several settings.

Convergence of metric measure spaces via embeddings in the Urysohn universal space

We study different notions of convergence of metric measure spaces by means of isometric embeddings into the Urysohn universal metric space $\mathbb U$. Due to the universality of $\mathbb U$, the collection $\mathbb X_1$ of isomorphism classes of normalised metric measure spaces can be canonically identified with the quotient (set) $\mathscr P_\sim(\mathbb U)=\mathscr P(\mathbb U)/\sim$ of the space $\mathscr P(\mathbb U)$ of Borel probability measures on $\mathbb U$, where $μ\simν$ if $ν$ is the pushforward of $μ$ under an isometry between their respective supports. By making crucial use of the ultrahomogeneity of $\mathbb U$, we show that, under the above identification, Gromov's box topology on $\mathbb X_1$ coincides with the quotient topology induced by the weak topology of $\mathscr P(\mathbb U)$. More quantitatively, the truncated $1$-Wasserstein distance on $\mathscr P(\mathbb U)$ induces a complete and separable distance ${\sf d}_{\rm mG}$ on $\mathbb X_1\cong\mathscr P_\sim(\mathbb U)$, which metrises the quotient topology of $\mathscr P_\sim(\mathbb U)$ and is Hölder equivalent to the box distance $\square$.
