Title:Monotone sets and local minimizers for the perimeter in Carnot groups
View PDFAbstract:Monotone sets have been introduced about ten years ago by Cheeger and Kleiner who reduced the proof of the non biLipschitz embeddability of the Heisenberg group into $L^1$ to the classification of its monotone subsets. Later on, monotone sets played an important role in several works related to geometric measure theory issues in the Heisenberg setting. In this paper, we work in an arbitrary Carnot group and show that its monotone subsets are sets with locally finite perimeter that are local minimizers for the perimeter. Under an additional condition on the ambient Carnot group, we prove that their measure-theoretic interior and support are precisely monotone. We also prove topological and measure-theoretic properties of local minimizers for the perimeter whose interest is independent from the study of monotone sets. As a combination of our results, we get in particular a sufficient condition under which any monotone set admits measure-theoretic representatives that are precisely monotone.
