AbstractWe study when characteristic and Hölder continuous functions are traces of Sobolev functions on doubling metric measure spaces. We provide analytic and geometric conditions sufficient for extending characteristic and Hölder continuous functions into globally defined Sobolev functions.

Abstract We study the mapping properties of fractional maximal operators in Sobolev and Campanato spaces in metric measure spaces. We show that, under certain restrictions on the underlying metric measure space, fractional maximal operators improve the Sobolev regularity of functions and map functions in Campanato spaces to Hölder continuous functions. We also give an example of a space where fractional maximal function of a Lipschitz function fails to be continuous.

AbstractBased on iteration of random-valued functions we study the problem of solvability in the class of continuous and Hölder continuous functions $$\varphi $$ φ of the equations $$\begin{aligned} \varphi (x)=F(x)-\int _{\Omega }\varphi \big (f(x,\omega )\big )P(d\omega ),\\ \varphi (x)=F(x)+\int _{\Omega }\varphi \big (f(x,\omega )\big )P(d\omega ), \end{aligned}$$ φ ( x ) = F ( x ) - ∫ Ω φ ( f ( x , ω ) ) P ( d ω ) , φ ( x ) = F ( x ) + ∫ Ω φ ( f ( x , ω ) ) P ( d ω ) , where P is a probability measure on a $$\sigma $$ σ -algebra of subsets of $$\Omega $$ Ω .

AbstractThe variational capacity {\operatorname{cap}_{p}} in Euclidean spaces is known to enjoy the density dichotomy at large scales, namely that for every {E\subset{\mathbb{R}}^{n}},\inf_{x\in{\mathbb{R}}^{n}}\frac{\operatorname{cap}_{p}(E\cap B(x,r),B(x,2r))}% {\operatorname{cap}_{p}(B(x,r),B(x,2r))}is either zero or tends to 1 as {r\to\infty}. We prove that this property still holds in unbounded complete geodesic metric spaces equipped with a doubling measure supporting a p-Poincaré inequality, but that it can fail in nongeodesic metric spaces and also for the Sobolev capacity in {{\mathbb{R}}^{n}}. It turns out that the shape of balls impacts the validity of the density dichotomy. Even in more general metric spaces, we construct families of sets, such as John domains, for which the density dichotomy holds. Our arguments include an exact formula for the variational capacity of superlevel sets for capacitary potentials and a quantitative approximation from inside of the variational capacity.

Abstract We introduce a space of distributional 1-forms $$\Omega ^1_\alpha $$Ωα1 on the torus $$\mathbf {T}^2$$T2 for which holonomies along axis paths are well-defined and induce Hölder continuous functions on line segments. We show that there exists an $$\Omega ^1_\alpha $$Ωα1-valued random variable A for which Wilson loop observables of axis paths coincide in law with the corresponding observables under the Yang–Mills measure in the sense of Lévy (Mem Am Math Soc 166(790), 2003). It holds furthermore that $$\Omega ^1_\alpha $$Ωα1 embeds into the Hölder–Besov space $$\mathcal {C}^{\alpha -1}$$Cα-1 for all $$\alpha \in (0,1)$$α∈(0,1), so that A has the correct small scale regularity expected from perturbation theory. Our method is based on a Landau-type gauge applied to lattice approximations.

Abstract We quantify the extent to which a supercritical Sobolev mapping can increase the dimension of subsets of its domain, in the setting of metric measure spaces supporting a Poincaré inequality. We show that the set of mappings that distort the dimensions of sets by the maximum possible amount is a prevalent subset of the relevant function space. For foliations of a metric space X defined by a David–Semmes regular mapping Π : X → W, we quantitatively estimate, in terms of Hausdorff dimension in W, the size of the set of leaves of the foliation that are mapped onto sets of higher dimension. We discuss key examples of such foliations, including foliations of the Heisenberg group by left and right cosets of horizontal subgroups.
