Doubling measures and Poincar\'e inequalities for sphericalizations of metric spaces, with applications to $p$-harmonic functions in unbounded domains

The identification between the complex plane and the Riemann sphere preserves holomorphic and harmonic functions and is a classical tool. In this paper we consider a similar mapping from an unbounded metric space $X$ to a bounded space and show how it preserves $p$-harmonic functions and Poincar\'e inequalities. When $X$ is Ahlfors regular, this was shown in our earlier paper ($\textit{J. Math. Anal. Appl. }\mathbf{474}$ (2019), 852--875). Here we only require the much weaker (and more natural) doubling property of the measure. Furthermore, we consider a broader class of transformed measures. The sphericalization is then applied to obtain new results for the Dirichlet boundary value problem in unbounded sets and for boundary regularity at infinity for $p$-harmonic functions. Some of these results are new also for unweighted $\mathbf{R}^n$, $n \ge 2$ and $p\ne2$.

Sphericalization with its applications in Gromov hyperbolic spaces

In this paper, we study certain applications of sphericalization in Gromov hyperbolic metric spaces. We first show that the doubling property regarding two classes of metrics on the Gromov boundary of hyperbolic spaces are coincided. Next, we obtain a characterization of unbounded Gromov hyperbolic domains via metric spaces sphericalization. Finally, we investigate the topological equivalence of Gromov hyperbolic $\varphi$-uniform domains between the Gromov boundary and the inner metric boundary.

Sphericalization and flattening with their applications in quasimetric measure spaces

The main purpose of the note is to explore the invariant properties of sphericalization and flattening and their applications in quasi-metric spaces. We show that sphericalization and flattening procedures on a quasimetric spaces preserving properties such as Ahlfors regular and doubling property. By using these properties, we generalize a recent result in \cite{WZ}. We also show that the Loewner condition can be preserved under quasim\"obius mapping between two $Q$-Ahlfors regular spaces. Finally, we prove that the $Q$-regularity of $Q$-dimensional Hausdorff measure of Bourdon metric are coincided with Hausdorff measure of Hamenst\"adt metric defined on the boundary at infinity of a Gromov hyperbolic space.

Deformations on symbolic Cantor sets and ultrametric spaces

By introducing new deformations on symbolic Cantor sets and ultrametric spaces, we prove that doubling ultrametric spaces admit bilipschitz embedding into Cantor sets. If in addition the spaces are uniformly perfect, we show that they are quasisymmetrically equivalent to Cantor sets. As an application, we provide a new proof for a recent work of Heer (Anal. Geom. Metr. Spaces, 2017) regarding quasim\"obius uniformization of Cantor set.

Traces of Newton-Sobolev, Hajlasz-Sobolev and BV functions on metric spaces

We study the boundary traces of Newton-Sobolev, Hajlasz-Sobolev, and BV (bounded variation) functions. Assuming less regularity of the domain than is usually done in the literature, we show that all of these function classes achieve the same "boundary values", which in particular implies that the trace spaces coincide provided that they exist. Many of our results seem to be new even in Euclidean spaces but we work in a more general complete metric space equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincare inequality.

Sphericalization and p-harmonic functions on unbounded domains in Ahlfors regular metric spaces

We use sphericalization to study the Dirichlet problem, Perron solutions and boundary regularity for p-harmonic functions on unbounded sets in Ahlfors regular metric spaces. Boundary regularity for the point at infinity is given special attention. In particular, we allow for several "approach directions" towards infinity and take into account the massiveness of their complements. In 2005, Llorente-Manfredi-Wu showed that the p-harmonic measure on the upper half space $R^n_+, n \ge 2$, is not subadditive on null sets when $p \neq 2$. Using their result and spherical inversion, we create similar bounded examples in the unit ball $B \subset R^n$ showing that the n-harmonic measure is not subadditive on null sets when $n \ge 3$, and neither are the p-harmonic measures in $B$ generated by certain weights depending on $p\neq 2$ and $n \ge 2$.

Notions of Dirichlet problem for functions of least gradient in metric measure spaces

We study two notions of Dirichlet problem associated with BV energy minimizers (also called functions of least gradient) in bounded domains in metric measure spaces whose measure is doubling and supports a $(1,1)$-Poincar\'e inequality. Since one of the two notions is not amenable to the direct method of the calculus of variations, we construct, based on an approach of [23, 29], solutions by considering the Dirichlet problem for $p$-harmonic functions, $p>1$, and letting $p\to 1$. Tools developed and used in this paper include the inner perimeter measure of a domain.
