Abstract

The aim of these notes is to provide a new proof of the Mattila-Melnikov-Verdera theorem on the uniform rectifiability of an Ahlfors-David regular measure whose associated Cauchy transform operator is bounded. They are based on lectures given by the second author in the analysis seminars at Kent State University and Tel-Aviv University.

Notes

  1. 1.

    In the notation of the previous section, \(\Gamma = \Gamma _{\ell_{0}}{\bigl ( \tfrac{\ell(Q)} {2} \bigl )}\), for some \(\ell_{0} \leq \tfrac{\ell(Q)} {2}\).
