Quantitative straightening of distance spheres

Abstract: We study "distance spheres": the set of points lying at constant distance from a fixed arbitrary subset

K

of

[0, 1]^{d}

. We show that, away from the regions where

K

is "too dense" and a set of small volume, we can decompose

[0, 1]^{d}

into a finite number of sets on which the distance spheres can be "straightened" into subsets of parallel

(d - 1)

-dimensional planes by a bi-Lipschitz map. Importantly, the number of sets and the bi-Lipschitz constants are independent of the set

K

.
