Title: Bi-Sobolev Extensions
Abstract We give a full characterization of circle homeomorphisms which admit a homeomorphic extension to the unit disk with finite bi-Sobolev norm. As a special case, a bi-conformal variant of the famous Beurling–Ahlfors extension theorem is obtained. Furthermore we show that the existing extension techniques such as applying either the harmonic or the Beurling–Ahlfors operator work poorly in the degenerated setting. This also gives an affirmative answer to a question of Karafyllia and Ntalampekos.  more » « less

  1. In this paper, we generalize a bi-Lipschitz extension result of David and Semmes from Euclidean spaces to complete metric measure spaces with controlled geometry (Ahlfors regularity and supporting a Poincaré inequality). In particular, we find sharp conditions on metric measure spaces X so that any bi-Lipschitz embedding of a subset of the real line into X extends to a bi-Lipschitz embedding of the whole line. Along the way, we prove that if the complement of an open subset Y of X has small Assouad dimension, then it is a uniform domain. Finally, we prove a quantitative approximation of continua in X by bi-Lipschitz curves.

  2. We quantify the Sobolev space norm of the Beltrami resolvent \((I- \mu S)^{-1}\), where \(S\) is the Beurling–Ahlfors transform, in terms of the corresponding Sobolev space norm of the dilatation \(\mu\) in the critical and supercritical ranges. Our estimate entails as a consequence quantitative self-improvement inequalities of Caccioppoli type for quasiregular distributions with dilatations in \(W^{1,p}\), \(p \ge 2\). Our proof strategy is then adapted to yield quantitative estimates for the resolvent \((I-\mu S_\Omega)^{-1}\) of the Beltrami equation on a sufficiently regular domain \(\Omega\), with \(\mu\in W^{1,p}(\Omega)\). Here, \(S_\Omega\) is the compression of \(S\) to a domain \(\Omega\). Our proofs do not rely on the compactness or commutator arguments previously employed in related literature. Instead, they leverage the weighted Sobolev estimates for compressions of Calderón–Zygmund operators to domains, recently obtained by the authors, to extend the Astala–Iwaniec–Saksman technique to higher regularities.

  3. Spatially distributed networks of large size arise in a variety of science and engineering problems, such as wireless sensor networks and smart power grids. Most of their features can be described by properties of their state-space matrices whose entries have indices in the vertex set of a graph. In this paper, we introduce novel algebras of Beurling type that contain matrices on a connected simple graph having polynomial off-diagonal decay, and we show that they are Banach subalgebras of the space of all bounded operators on the space of all p-summable sequences. The $$\ell^p$$-stability of state-space matrices is an essential hypothesis for the robustness of spatially distributed networks. In this paper, we establish the equivalence among -stabilities of matrices in Beurling algebras for different exponents $$p$$, with quantitative analysis for the lower stability bounds. Admission of norm-control inversion plays a crucial role in some engineering practice. In this paper, we prove that matrices in Beurling subalgebras of have norm-controlled inversion and we find a norm-controlled polynomial with close to optimal degree. Polynomial estimate to powers of matrices is important for numerical implementation of spatially distributed networks. In this paper, we apply our results on norm-controlled inversion to obtain a polynomial estimate to powers of matrices in Beurling algebras. The polynomial estimate is a noncommutative extension about convolution powers of a complex function and is applicable to estimate the probability of hopping from one agent to another agent in a stationary Markov chain on a spatially distributed network.

  4. Abstract We prove that the small-data scattering map uniquely determines the nonlinearity for a wide class of gauge-invariant, intercritical nonlinear Schrödinger equations. We use the Born approximation to reduce the analysis to a deconvolution problem involving the distribution function for linear Schrödinger solutions. We then solve this deconvolution problem using the Beurling–Lax Theorem.

    Abstract This paper builds upon two key principles behind the Bourgain–Dyatlov quantitative uniqueness theorem for functions with Fourier transform supported in an Ahlfors regular set. We first provide a characterization of when a quantitative uniqueness theorem holds for functions with very quickly decaying Fourier transform, thereby providing an extension of the classical Paneah–Logvinenko–Sereda theorem. Secondly, we derive a transference result which converts a quantitative uniqueness theorem for functions with fast decaying Fourier transform to one for functions with Fourier transform supported on a fractal set. In addition to recovering the result of Bourgain–Dyatlov, we obtain analogous uniqueness results for denser fractals.
