Abstract:

The graph of a function $f$ is subjected to non-homogeneous dilatations around the point $(x_0;f(x_0))$, related to the Taylor's expansion of $f$ at $x_0$. Some questions about convergence are considered. In particular the dilatated images of the graph are proved to behave nicely with respect to a certain varifold-like convergence. Further and stronger results are shown to hold in such a context, by suitably reinforcing the assumptions.

Keywords: Rectifiable sets, non-homogeneous blow-up, Taylor formula
