Wasserstein distance and the rectifiability of doubling measures. I

Publication date 10 February 2016

Abstract: Let

m u

be a doubling measure in

m a t h b b R^{n}

. We investigate quantitative relations between the rectifiability of

m u

and its distance to flat measures. More precisely, for

x

in the support

S i g m a

of

m u

and

r > 0

, we introduce a number

a l p h a (x, r) i n (0, 1]

that measures, in terms of a variant of the

L^{1}

-Wasserstein distance, the minimal distance between the restriction of

m u

to

B (x, r)

and a multiple of the Lebesgue measure on an affine subspace that meets

B (x, r / 2)

. We show that the set of points of

S i g m a

where

i n t_{0}^{1} a l p h a (x, r) f r a c d r r < i n f t y

can be decomposed into rectifiable pieces of various dimensions. We obtain additional control on the pieces and the size of

m u

when we assume that some Carleson measure estimates hold. Soit

m u

une mesure doublante dans

m a t h b b R^{n}

. On 'etudie des relations quantifi'ees entre la rectifiabilit'e de

m u

et la distance entre

m u

et les mesures plates. Plus pr'ecis'ement, on utilise une variante de la

L^{1}

-distance de Wasserstein pour d'efinir, pour

x

dans le support

S i g m a

de

m u

et

r > 0

, un nombre

a l p h a (x, r)

qui mesure la distance minimale entre la restriction de

m u

`a

B (x, r)

et une mesure de Lebesgue sur un sous-espace affine passant par

B (x, r / 2)

. On d'ecompose l'ensemble des points

x i n S i g m a

tels que

i n t_{0}^{1} a l p h a (x, r) f r a c d r r < i n f t y

en parties rectifiables de dimensions diverses, et on obtient un meilleur contr^ole de ces parties et de la taille de

m u

quand les

a l p h a (x, r)

v'erifient certaines conditions de Carleson.
