Abstract: We prove the differentiability of Lipschitz maps X-->V, where X is a complete metric measure space satisfying a doubling condition and a Poincar'e inequality, and V is a Banach space with the Radon Nikodym Property (RNP). The proof depends on a new characterization of the differentiable structure on such metric measure spaces, in terms of directional derivatives in the direction of tangent vectors to suitable rectifiable curves.


The authors formulate the following main results: Theorem 1. Every Lipschitz map from \(X\) into a Banach space with the Radon-Nikodým property (RNP) is differentiable \(\mu\)-almost everywhere (a.e.). Theorem 2. If \(X\) admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding in a Banach space with the Radon-Nikodým property, then for \(\mu\)-a.e. \(x\in X\), every tangent cone at \(x\) is bi-Lipschitz homeomorphic to a Euclidean space. Theorem 3. If \(f: X\to V\) is a Lipschitz map into an RNP Banach space, then for a full measure set of points \(p\in X\), there is a spanning set \(\{v,_1,v_2,\dots, v_k\}\subset T_pX\), such that for all \(i\in\{1,2,\dots,k\}\), the tangent vector \(v_i\) is the velocity of a Lipschitz curve \(c: I\to X\) at \(t\), and \(f\circ c\) is differentiable at \(t\).
