We show that for @math and for measurable subsets of the unit square with Lebesgue measure @math there exist bi-Lipschitz maps with bounded Lipschitz constant (uniformly over all such sets) which are identity on the boundary and increases the Lebesgue measure of the set to at least @math .
Shortly before uploading this paper we came across a very recent paper @cite_5 on arXiv which investigates related questions and proves a variant of Theorem for sets @math of sufficiently small measure (Proposition 11, @cite_5 ), as well as much more. Their proof uses a covering lemma based on a result of @cite_2 , which is no longer true in higher dimensions. Our proof is different and we believe can be adapted to work in higher dimensions as well. Moreover, the stretching result only for sufficiently small sets is not sufficient for our purposes in proving rough isometry. Our work was independent of @cite_5 .

We study the recovery of sparse vectors from subsampled random convolutions via @math -minimization. We consider the setup in which both the subsampling locations as well as the generating vector are chosen at random. For a subgaussian generator with independent entries, we improve previously known estimates: if the sparsity @math is small enough, i.e., @math , we show that @math measurements are sufficient to recover @math -sparse vectors in dimension @math with high probability, matching the well-known condition for recovery from standard Gaussian measurements. If @math is larger, then essentially @math measurements are sufficient, again improving over previous estimates. Our results are shown via the so-called robust null space property which is weaker than the standard restricted isometry property. Our method of proof involves a novel combination of small ball estimates with chaining techniques which should be of independent interest. Scholars are increasingly citing electronic “web references” which are not preserved in libraries or full text archives. WebCite is a new standard for citing web references. To “webcite” a document involves archiving the cited Web page through www.webcitation.org and citing the WebCite permalink instead of (or in addition to) the unstable live Web page. This journal has amended its “instructions for authors” accordingly, asking authors to archive cited Web pages before submitting a manuscript. Almost 200 other journals are already using the system. We discuss the rationale for WebCite, its technology, and how scholars, editors, and publishers can benefit from the service. Citing scholars initiate an archiving process of all cited Web references, ideally before they submit a manuscript. Authors of online documents and websites which are expected to be cited by others can ensure that their work is permanently available by creating an archived copy using WebCite and providing the citation information including the WebCite link on their Web document(s). Editors should ask their authors to cache all cited Web addresses (Uniform Resource Locators, or URLs) “prospectively” before submitting their manuscripts to their journal. Editors and publishers should also instruct their copyeditors to cache cited Web material if the author has not done so already. Finally, WebCite can process publisher submitted “citing articles” (submitted for example as eXtensible Markup Language [XML] documents) to automatically archive all cited Web pages shortly before or on publication. Finally, WebCite can act as a focussed crawler, caching retrospectively references of already published articles. Copyright issues are addressed by honouring respective Internet standards (robot exclusion files, no-cache and no-archive tags). Long-term preservation is ensured by agreements with libraries and digital preservation organizations. The resulting WebCite Index may also have applications for research assessment exercises, being able to measure the impact of Web services and published Web documents through access and Web citation metrics. @PARASPLIT [J Med Internet Res 2005;7(5):e60] Does there exist a Lipschitz injection of ℤd into the open set of a site percolation process on ℤD, if the percolation parameter p is sufficiently close to 1? We prove a negative answer when d = D and also when d ≥ 2 if the Lipschitz constant M is required to be 1. Earlier work of Dirr, Dondl, Grimmett, Holroyd and Scheutzow yields a positive answer for d < D and M = 2. As a result, the above question is answered for all d, D and M. Our proof in the case d = D uses Tucker’s lemma from topological combinatorics, together with the aforementioned result for d < D. One application is an affirmative answer to a question of Peled concerning embeddings of random patterns in two and more dimensions. We study the asymptotic behavior of the persistent homology of i.i.d. samples from a @math -Ahlfors regular measure --- one that satisfies uniform bounds of the form for some @math all @math in the support of @math and all sufficiently small @math Our main result is that if @math are sampled from a @math -Ahlfors regular measure on @math and @math denotes the @math -weight of the minimal spanning tree on @math [E_ (x_1, ,x_n )= e T (x_1, ,x_n ) |e|^ ] then [E_ (x_1, ,x_n ) n^ d- d ] with high probability as @math We also prove theorems about the asymptotic behavior of weighted sums defined in terms of higher-dimensional persistent homology. As an application, we exhibit hypotheses under which the fractal dimension of a measure can be computed from the persistent homology of i.i.d. samples from that space, in a manner similar to that proposed in the experimental work of (2018).
