Characterizations of uniformly differentiable co-horizontal intrinsic graphs in Carnot groups. (Caractérisation des graphes intrinsèques co-horizontaux uniformément différentiables dans les groupes de Carnot.) (English. French summary) Zbl 07929014

Summary: In arbitrary Carnot groups we study intrinsic graphs of maps with horizontal target. These graphs are \(C^1_{\mathrm{H}}\) regular exactly when the map is uniformly intrinsically differentiable. Our first main result characterizes the uniformly intrinsic differentiability by means of Hölder properties along the projections of left-invariant vector fields on the graph.
We strengthen the result in step-2 Carnot groups for intrinsic real-valued maps by only requiring horizontal regularity. We remark that such a refinement is not possible already in the easiest step-3 group.
As a by-product of independent interest, in every Carnot group we prove an area-formula for uniformly intrinsically differentiable real-valued maps. We also explicitly write the area element in terms of the intrinsic derivatives of the map.
