Macroscopic Poincaré Inequalities and Weak-Type Characterizations of $p$-Energy Forms

Abstract

For a class of regular strongly local $p$-energy forms on complete doubling metric measure spaces, $1<p<\infty$, we derive a macroscopic Poincaré inequality from a Poincaré inequality and a capacity upper bound at a doubling scale $Ψ$. The macroscopic inequality compares $L^p$-oscillations at any two scales and yields a uniform two-scale comparison $J_s\lesssim J_r$, $0<r<s$, for the Korevaar-Schoen functionals, strengthening their usual weak monotonicity property. Conversely, under a density assumption on compactly supported functions, the macroscopic inequality yields a regular strongly local Korevaar-Schoen $p$-energy satisfying a $Ψ$-Poincaré inequality. We also show that the macroscopic inequality forces lower $p$-scaling of $Ψ$ on scales not exceeding $\mathrm{diam} X$; together with doubling, this gives two-sided power bounds. Finally, we establish a weak-type characterization of the energy domain of Brezis-Van Schaftingen-Yung type.

Tilings of an Isosceles Triangle

An N-tiling of triangle ABC by triangle T is a way of writing ABC as a union of N triangles congruent to T, overlapping only at their boundaries. The triangle T is the "tile". The tile may or may not be similar to ABC. In this paper we study the case of isosceles (but not equilateral) ABC. We study three possible forms of the tile: right-angled, or with one angle double another, or with a 120 degree angle. In the case of a right-angled tile, we give a complete characterization of the tilings, and prove that N must be even. In the latter two cases we prove the ratios of the sides of the tile are rational, and give a necessary condition for the existence of an N-tiling. For the case when the tile has one angle double another, we prove N cannot be prime or even squarefree.

Tiling a triangle into a prime number of congruent triangles

We prove that if a triangle is cut into $N$ congruent triangles and $N$ is prime, then $N=2$, $N=3$, or $N\equiv 1 \pmod 4$, and every such $N$ occurs. In particular, if $N > 3$ then $N$ is not a prime congruent to $3$ modulo $4$. The argument divides into cases according to possible shapes of the tiled triangle. Let $α,β,γ$ be the angles of the tile. Prior to this posting, there remained several open shapes. The two most difficult shapes were $(2α,β,α+β)$, the {\em triquadratic} shape, and $(β,β,3α)$, the {\em isosceles-$β$} shape, in which $3α+2β= π$ and $α$ is not a rational multiple of $π$. A previous version of this paper relied on incorrect proofs of those cases, which have been retracted, and are replaced here by correct proofs. For each of those two shapes the number of tiles has the form $N = j^2 N_0$, where $N_0 > 1$ is determined by the shape of the tile and $j$ is a positive integer; so $N$ is prime, or even squarefree, only if $j = 1$. We prove by geometric reasoning that neither shape admits a tiling with $j = 1$, which shows that for both shapes $N$ is never prime, and indeed never squarefree. The shape $(β,β,3α+β)$ (where $3α+ 3β= π$) has been settled by Bonfioli. In this paper, we settle the remaining cases, by number-theoretic arguments based on the area equation. Those proofs rule out $N$ prime, but not $N$ squarefree, and we give examples to show that tilings with squarefree $N$ do sometimes exist.

Poincaré Beta Balls: Radial Laws, Hyperbolic Shell Metric Transforms, and Critical-Limit Regimes

On a high-dimensional Poincaré ball, a Euclidean beta-type radial measure concentrates near a sphere, but hyperbolic distance amplifies the surviving radial spread, so the usual shell reduction loses part of the limiting metric. In each regime of the balance between this radial width and amplified angular separation, we determine the weak pyramid limit of the spaces rescaled at the order at which the transition between concentration and dissipation occurs. The four critical-limit regimes are the shifted-exponential railway pyramid, the diameter-at-most-one regime, the nonlinear Gaussian-transform regime, and the Gaussian regime. Each finite-branch railway mm-space generating the first pyramid has branches from a common center, a shifted exponential distribution along them, and paths between different branches through the center. We also give a sharp criterion for convergence to the diameter-at-most-one pyramid. The resulting classification identifies the precise critical scales and clarifies when angular and radial fluctuations contribute simultaneously to the limiting geometry.
