As an application we prove a recent conjecture of David and Schul. The techniques developed for the proof of the factorization result yield several other new and seemingly unrelated results. We prove that if $f$ is a Lipschitz mapping from an open set in $\\mathbb{R}^n$ onto a metric space $X$, then the topological dimension of $X$ equals $n$ if and only if $X$ has positive $n$-dimensional Hausdorff measure. We also prove an area formula for length-preserving maps between metric spaces, which gives, in particular, a new formula for integration on countably rectifiable sets in the Heisenberg group.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-06-30T00:57:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "28A75", "30L99", "51F30", "28A78", "53C17", "53C23", "54F45", "54F50" ], "keywords": [ "lipschitz map", "metric tree", "metric differentiability", "metric space", "dimensional hausdorff measure" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
