AbstractThis paper contributes to the study of sets of finite intrinsic perimeter in Carnot groups. Our intent is to characterize in which groups the only sets with constant intrinsic normal are the vertical half-spaces. Our viewpoint is algebraic: such a phenomenon happens if and only if the semigroup generated by each horizontal half-space is a vertical half-space. We call semigenerated those Carnot groups with this property. For Carnot groups of nilpotency step 3 we provide a complete characterization of semigeneration in terms of whether such groups do not have any Engel-type quotients. Engel-type groups, which are introduced here, are the minimal (in terms of quotients) counterexamples. In addition, we give some sufficient criteria for semigeneration of Carnot groups of arbitrary step. For doing this, we define a new class of Carnot groups, which we call type $$(\Diamond )$$ ( ◊ ) and which generalizes the previous notion of type $$(\star )$$ ( ⋆ ) defined by M. Marchi. As an application, we get that in type $$ (\Diamond ) $$ ( ◊ ) groups and in step 3 groups that do not have any Engel-type algebra as a quotient, one achieves a strong rectifiability result for sets of finite perimeter in the sense of Franchi, Serapioni, and Serra-Cassano.

AbstractGromov (2001) and Sturm (2003) proved that any four points in a CAT(0) space satisfy a certain family of inequalities. We call those inequalities the ⊠-inequalities, following the notation used by Gromov. In this paper, we prove that a metric space X containing at most five points admits an isometric embedding into a CAT(0) space if and only if any four points in X satisfy the ⊠-inequalities. To prove this, we introduce a new family of necessary conditions for a metric space to admit an isometric embedding into a CAT(0) space by modifying and generalizing Gromov’s cycle conditions. Furthermore, we prove that if a metric space satisfies all those necessary conditions, then it admits an isometric embedding into a CAT(0) space. This work presents a new approach to characterizing those metric spaces that admit an isometric embedding into a CAT(0) space.

Self-similarity is a common tendency in nature and physics. It is wide spread in geo-physical phenomena like diffusion and iteration. Physically, an object is self-similar if it is invariant under a set of scaling transformation. This paper gives a brief outline of the analytical and set theoretical properties of different types of weak self-similar sets. It is proved that weak sub self-similar sets are closed under finite union. Weak sub self-similar property of the topological boundary of a weak self-similar set is also discussed. The denseness of non-weak super self-similar sets in the set of all non-empty compact subsets of a separable complete metric space is established. It is proved that the power of weak self-similar sets are weak super self-similar in the product metric and weak self-similarity is preserved under isometry. A characterization of weak super self-similar sets using weak sub contractions is also presented. Exact weak sub and super self-similar sets are introduced in this paper and some necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of weak condensation IFS are presented. A condition for a set to be both exact weak super and sub self-similar is obtained and the denseness of exact weak super self similar sets in the set of all weak self-similar sets is discussed.

Generalized Metric

The study of metrization has led to the development of a number of new topological spaces, called generalized metric spaces, within the past fifteen years. For a survey of results in metrization theory involving many of these spaces, the reader is referred to [13]. Quite a few of these generalized metric spaces have been studied extensively, somewhat independently of their role in metrization theorems. Specifically, we refer here to characterizations of these spaces by various workers as images of metric spaces. Results in this area have been obtained by Alexander [2], Arhangel'skii [3], Burke [5], Heath [10], Michael [15], Nagata [16], and the author [1], to mention a few. Later we will recall specifically some of these results.
