A Note on the Engulfing Property and the Γ-regularity of Convex Functions in Carnot Groups
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study the engulfing property for convex functions in Carnot groups. As an application we show that the horizontal gradient of functions with this property is Hölder continuous.

Convex Functions on Carnot Groups
We consider the definition and regularity properties of convex functions in Carnot groups. We show that various notions of convexity in the subelliptic setting that have appeared in the literature are equivalent. Our point of view is based on thinking of convex functions as subsolutions of homogeneous elliptic equations.
متن کاملRegularity Estimates for Convex Functions in Carnot-carathéodory Spaces
We prove some first order regularity estimates for a class of convex functions in Carnot-Carathéodory spaces, generated by Hörmander vector fields. Our approach relies on both the structure of metric balls induced by Hörmander vector fields and local upper estimates for the corresponding subharmonic functions.

In this paper we prove second order horizontal differentiability and C1,α regularity results for subelliptic p-harmonic functions in Carnot groups for p close to 2.

We prove that any locally bounded from below, upper semicontinuous v-convex function in any Carnot group is h-convex. §
متن کاملRegularity Properties of H-convex Sets
We study the firstand second-order regularity properties of the boundary of H-convex sets in the setting of a real vector space endowed with a suitable group structure: our starting point is indeed a step two Carnot group. We prove that, locally, the noncharacteristic part of the boundary has the intrinsic cone property and that it is foliated by intrinsic Lipschitz continous curves that are tw...
