H\"older continuous mappings, differential forms and the Heisenberg groups

We develop analysis of H\"older continuous mappings with applications to geometry and topology of the Heisenberg groups. We cover the theory of distributional Jacobians of H\"older continuous mappings and pullbacks of differential forms under H\"older continuous mappings. That includes versions of the change of variables formula and the Stokes theorem for H\"older continuous mappings. The main applications are in the setting of the Heisenberg groups, where we provide a simple proof of a generalization of the Gromov non-embedding theorem, and new results about the H\"older homotopy groups of the Heisenberg groups.

The Lusin theorem and horizontal graphs in the Heisenberg group

In this paper we prove that every collection of measurable functions $f_α$, $|α|=m$ coincides a.e. with $m$th order derivatives of a function $g\in C^{m-1}$ whose derivatives of order $m-1$ may have any modulus of continuity weaker than that of a Lipschitz function. This is a stronger version of earlier results of Lusin, Moonens-Pfeffer and Francos. As an application we construct surfaces in the Heisenberg group with tangent spaces being horizontal a.e.
