The Riemannian Structure of John and Uniform Domains in ℝn

Using the theory of pre-ends, we study the boundary and metric properties of John and uniform domains in the Euclidean n-space. We obtain some results on the metric Riemannian structure of these classes of domains. We prove that the family of John domains is closed under the class of homeomorphisms quasi-isometric in the intrinsic Riemannian metric and the family of uniform domains is closed under the class of bi-Lipschitz mappings.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 Karmazin A.
