Abstract:

A set $A$ in ${R^n}$ is called porous if there is $\alpha > 0$ such that every ball $\overline B (x,r)$ contains a point whose distance from $A$ is at least $\alpha r$. We show that porosity is preserved by quasisymmetric maps, in particular, by bilipschitz maps. Local versions are also given.
