In this paper we give two sufficient conditions for rectifiability, both in terms of square functions of flatness-quantifying coefficients. The first condition involves the so-called $\\alpha$ and $\\beta_2$ numbers. The second one involves $\\alpha_2$ numbers -- coefficients quantifying flatness via Wasserstein distance $W_2$. Both conditions are necessary for rectifiability, too -- the first one was shown to be necessary by Tolsa, while the necessity of the $\\alpha_2$ condition is established in our recent paper. Thus, we get two new characterizations of rectifiability.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-04-24T18:37:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "28A75", "28A78" ], "keywords": [ "wasserstein distance", "sufficient condition", "rectifiability", "lipschitz images", "radon measure" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 53, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
