These examples are formed from an iterative process that involves removing well-behaved domains, or more precisely, domains whose complements are uniform in the sense of Martio and Sarvas. While existing arguments rely on explicit constructions of Semmes families of curves, we include a new way of obtaining Poincaré inequalities through the use of relative isoperimetric inequalities, after Korte and Lahti. To do so, we further introduce the notion of of isoperimetric inequalities at given density levels and a way to iterate such inequalities. These tools are presented and apply to general metric measure measures. Our examples subsume the previous results of Mackay, Tyson, and Wildrick regarding non-self similar Sierpiński carpets, and extend them to many more general shapes as well as higher dimensions.","PeriodicalId":48637,"journal":{"name":"Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces","volume":"10 1","pages":"373 - 393"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46620796","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Properties a real-valued function on X may possess include T1-measurability and integrability. However, these properties are less well studied than their measure-theoretic counterparts. This paper describes new characterisations of T1-measurability and integrability for a bounded charge space (µ(X) < ∞). These characterisations are convenient for analytic purposes; for example, they facilitate simple proofs that T1-measurability is equivalent to conventional measurability and integrability is equivalent to Lebesgue integrability, if (X, 𝒜, µ) is a complete measure space. New characterisations of equality almost everywhere of two real-valued functions on a bounded charge space are provided. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the function space L1(X, 𝒜, µ) to be a Banach space are determined. Lastly, the concept of completion of a measure space is generalised for charge spaces, and it is shown that under certain conditions, completion of a charge space adds no new equivalence classes to the quotient space ℒp(X, 𝒜, µ).","PeriodicalId":48637,"journal":{"name":"Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces","volume":"10 1","pages":"63 - 89"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2021-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44576931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
