    We present the converse to a higher dimensional, scale-invariant version of a classical theorem of F. and M. Riesz. More precisely, for n≥2n\geq 2, for an ADR domain \Omega\subset \re^{n+1} which satisfies the Harnack Chain condition plus an interior (but not exterior) Corkscrew condition, we show that absolute continuity of harmonic measure with respect to surface measure on ∂Ω\partial\Omega, with scale invariant higher integrability of the Poisson kernel, is sufficient to imply uniformly rectifiable of ∂Ω\partial\Omega

    A Two Weight Inequality for the Hilbert transform Assuming an Energy Hypothesis

    Subject to a range of side conditions, the two weight inequality for the Hilbert transform is characterized in terms of (1) a Poisson A_2 condition on the weights (2) A forward testing condition, in which the two weight inequality is tested on intervals (3) and a backwards testing condition, dual to (2). A critical new concept in the proof is an Energy Condition, which incorporates information about the distribution of the weights in question inside intervals. This condition is a consequence of the three conditions above. The Side Conditions are termed 'Energy Hypotheses'. At one endpoint they are necessary for the two weight inequality, and at the other, they are the Pivotal Conditions of Nazarov-Treil-Volberg. This new concept is combined with a known proof strategy devised by Nazarov-Treil-Volberg. A counterexample shows that the Pivotal Condition are not necessary for the two weight inequality.Comment: 60 pages, 1 figure. v3. An important revision: The Energy Condition is reformulated, a key concept of the proof, is reformulated. The main result is unchanged. v4. important display corrected. v6: The earlier versions incorrectly claimed a characterization, as was pointed out to us by S. Treil v7. Corrections in Section
