Jul 8, 2019 at 15:29 comment added sharpe @all Today, I found an interesting paper by F. D. Lesley. So, I update the contents of my question.
Jul 8, 2019 at 10:50 comment added Pietro Majer Yes sorry, I had misread the question, and in fact I thought I had deleted my comment, but for some reason I failed again :/
Jul 7, 2019 at 17:37 comment added Benoît Kloeckner @PietroMajer: it is true that my affirmation is not universally true, but since here we consider a map from the domain delimited by the von Koch curve, it does apply.

Jul 6, 2019 at 9:59 comment added Pietro Majer @BenoîtKloeckner In fact "Hölder exponent greater than 1 implies that the function is constant" holds for functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$, or even on a length space, but I think it is not true here, due to the fact that any arc of $K$ has infinite length. In fact I think one can take $\beta=1/\alpha=\log4/\log3$ (so these exponents are also sharp)

Jul 6, 2019 at 5:40 comment added sharpe @BenoîtKloeckner Thank you for your reply. I understood.
Jul 5, 2019 at 7:24 comment added Benoît Kloeckner @sharpe the extension to an heomorphism of the boudary should be checked carfeully (for general domains, boundaries need not be topological circles, think of a slit disk for example), but yes that is the idea I had in mind.

Jul 4, 2019 at 16:59 comment added Nik Weaver @BenoitKloeckner: yes, I meant $\ln 3/\ln 4$ --- in fact (embarrassingly) this correct value is given in my book Lipschitz Algebras (second edition). Sharpe, on p. 68 of this book there is a brief discussion of this example, in case that helps.
Jul 4, 2019 at 16:45 comment added sharpe @BenoîtKloeckner I also thank you for teaching me the paper. I do not know much French, but I will read it.
Jul 4, 2019 at 16:37 comment added sharpe @BenoîtKloeckner Maybe I understood. A conformal map $\phi : \mathbb{D} \to K$ is extended to a homeomorphism from $\bar{\mathbb{D}}$ to $\bar{K}$. Since $\partial K$ is regarded as the image of the unit circle under $\phi$, we have $\log4 /\log 3 \le 1/\alpha$. Hence, $\alpha \le \log3 /\log 4$. Is my understanding correct?
Jul 4, 2019 at 16:16 comment added Benoît Kloeckner @sharpe: that $\log 3/\log 4$ is a upper bound can be seen by looking at the dimensions: the image of a metric space of Hausdorff dimension $d$ by a $\alpha$-Hölder map has dimension at most $d/\alpha$ (this follows from the definitions). That it can be achieved by a map from the circle to the Von Koch boundary is, I think, done in Assouad's Bulletin SMF paper archive.numdam.org/article/BSMF_1983__111__429_0.pdf (in French).
Jul 4, 2019 at 16:11 comment added Benoît Kloeckner @NikWeaver: your guess for $\beta$ is too optimistic: having Hölder exponent greater than $1$ implies that the function is constant. For $\alpha$, you might be right, except that you should have written $\log 3/\log 4$ (there are $4$ images of scale $1/3$). $\alpha$ cannot be greater than this, that it can be achieved by a conformal map is not obvious.
Jul 4, 2019 at 16:04 comment added sharpe @NikWeaver Thank you for your comment. Can you tell me a reference for the fact that the Holder exponent $\alpha$ for mapping the unit circle onto the boundary of the snowflake equals to $\log 2 /\log 3$. I didn't know that at all.
Jul 4, 2019 at 14:47 comment added Nik Weaver I would guess it's the same as the Holder exponent for mapping the unit circle onto the boundary of the snowflake, so $\alpha = \ln 2/\ln 3$ and $\beta = \alpha^{-1}$. But it's a bit outside my area of expertise.
