Effective Reifenberg theorems in Hilbert and Banach spaces (Q2314793)

A celebrated theorem of Reifenberg states that closed subsets of \(\mathbb{R}^n\) that look sufficiently close to \(k\)-dimensional at all scales, are in fact \(C^{0,\gamma}\) equivalent to \(k\)-dimensional subspaces. In this paper the authors establish Reifenberg type theorems for measures in Hilbert and Banach spaces. In particular, they show that the classical Reifenberg theorem holds for Banach spaces, and that a weak version of the effective Reifenberg theorem holds, i.e. if one assumes a summability estimate \(\int_0^2 \beta_{\mu}^k(x,r)\frac{dr}{r} <M\) without power gain, where \(\beta_\mu^k\) denote the \(k\)-dimensional Jones' \(\beta\)-numbers of the measure, then \(\mu\) is rectifiable with measure estimates. In the particular case \(k=1\), they prove that for a uniformly smooth Banach space, if \(\int_0^2 \beta_\mu^1(x,r)^\alpha\frac{dr}{r} < M^{\alpha/2}\), where \(\alpha\) is the smoothness power of the Banach space, then \(\mu\) is again rectifiable with uniform measure estimates.
