We improve the result by obtaining new regularity results for these surfaces in terms of convexity and $C^2$ regularity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-11-30T02:27:09.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "26B25", "28A75", "49J52" ], "keywords": [ "non-unique metric projection", "dimensional measure", "nearest point", "regularity results" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
