For a Borel set E in R^n, the total Menger curvature of E, or c(E), is the integral over E^3 (with respect to 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure in each factor of E) of c(x,y,z)^2, where 1/c(x,y,z) is the radius of the circle passing through three points x, y, and z in E. 
Let H^1(X) denote the 1-dimensional Hausdorff measure of a set X. A Borel set E in R^n is purely unrectifiable if for any Lipschitz function gamma from R to R^n, H^1(E cap gamma(R)) = 0. It is said to be rectifiable if there exists a countable family of Lipschitz functions gamma_i from R to R^n such that H^1(E - union gamma_i(R)) = 0. It may be seen from this definition that any 1-set E (that is, E Borel and 0<H^1(E)<\infty) can be decomposed into two disjoint subsets E_irr and E_rect, where E_irr is purely unrectifiable and E_rect is rectifiable. 
Theorem. If E is a 1-set in R^n and c(E)^2 is finite, then E is rectifiable.

Menger curvature and rectifiability

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n \geq 2$, be 1-sided NTA domain (aka uniform domain), i.e.~a domain which satisfies interior Corkscrew and Harnack Chain conditions, and assume that $\partial\Omega$ is n-dimensional Ahlfors-David regular. We characterize the rectifiability of $\partial\Omega$ in terms of the absolute continuity of surface measure with respect to harmonic measure. We also show that these are equivalent to the fact that $\partial\Omega$ can be covered $\mathcal{H}^{n}$-a.e. by a countable union of portions of boundaries of bounded chord-arc subdomains of $\Omega$ and to the fact that $\partial\Omega$ possesses exterior corkscrew points in a qualitative way $\mathcal{H}^{n}$-a.e. Our methods apply to harmonic measure and also to elliptic measures associated with real symmetric second order divergence form elliptic operators with locally Lipschitz coefficients whose derivatives satisfy a natural qualitative Carleson condition.

Rectifiability and elliptic measures on 1-sided NTA domains with Ahlfors-David regular boundaries

We show that on an NTA domain if each tangent measure to harmonic measure at a point is a polynomial harmonic measure then the associated polynomials are homogeneous. Geometric information for solutions of a two-phase free boundary problem studied by Kenig and Toro is derived.

Harmonic polynomials and tangent measures of harmonic measure

One goal of geometric measure theory is to understand how measures in the plane or a higher dimensional Euclidean space interact with families of lower dimensional sets. An important dichotomy arises between the class of rectifiable measures, which give full measure to a countable union of the lower dimensional sets, and the class of purely unrectifiable measures, which assign measure zero to each distinguished set. There are several commonly used definitions of rectifiable and purely unrectifiable measures in the literature (using different families of lower dimensional sets such as Lipschitz images of subspaces or Lipschitz graphs), but all of them can be encoded using the same framework. In this paper, we describe a framework for generalized rectifiability, review a selection of classical results on rectifiable measures in this context, and survey recent advances on the identification problem for Radon measures that are carried by Lipschitz or Holder or $$C^{1,\alpha }$$
 images of Euclidean subspaces, including theorems of Azzam–Tolsa, Badger–Schul, Badger–Vellis, Edelen–Naber–Valtorta, Ghinassi, and Tolsa–Toro.

Generalized rectifiability of measures and the identification problem

For each 1 ≤ p < ∞, we formulate a necessary and sufficient condition for an admissible metric to be extremal for the Fuglede p-modulus of a system of measures. When p = 2, this characterization generalizes Beurling's criterion, a sufficient condition for an admissible metric to be extremal for the extremal length of a planar curve family. In addition, we prove that every Borel function φ: R n → (0, ∞) satisfying 0 < φ p < ∞ is extremal for the p-modulus of some curve family in R n .

Beurling's criterion and extremal metrics for fuglede modulus

We formulate a necessary and sufficient condition for an admissible metric to be extremal for the Fuglede p-modulus of a system of measures. When p=2, this characterization generalizes Beurling's criterion, a sufficient condition for an admissible metric to be extremal for the extremal length of a planar curve family. In addition, we prove that every non-negative Borel function in R^n with positive and finite p-norm is extremal for the p-modulus of some curve family.
