On big pieces approximations of parabolic hypersurfaces

Let \(\Sigma\) be a closed subset of \(\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\) which is parabolic Ahlfors-David regular and assume that \(\Sigma\) satisfies a 2-sided corkscrew condition. Assume, in addition, that \(\Sigma\) is either time-forwards Ahlfors-David regular, time-backwards Ahlfors-David regular, or parabolic uniform rectifiable. We then first prove that \(\Sigma\) satisfies a weak synchronized two cube condition. Based on this we are able to revisit the argument of Nyström and Strömqvist (2009) and prove that \(\Sigma\) contain suniform big pieces of Lip(1,1/2) graphs. When \(\Sigma\) is parabolic uniformly rectifiable the construction can be refined and in this case we prove that \(\Sigma\) contains uniform big pieces of regular parabolic Lip(1,1/2) graphs. Similar results hold if \(\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\) is a connected component of \(\mathbb{R}^{n+1}\setminus\Sigma\) and in this context we also give a parabolic counterpart of the main result of Azzam et al. (2017) by proving that if \(\Omega\) is a one-sided parabolic chord arc domain, and if \(\Sigma\) is parabolic uniformly rectifiable, then \(\Omega\) is in fact a parabolic chord arc domain. Our results give a flexible parabolic version of the classical (elliptic) result of David and Jerison (1990) concerning the existence of uniform big pieces of Lipschitz graphs for sets satisfying a two disc condition.
