Ultradifferentiable extension theorems: a survey

We survey ultradifferentiable extension theorems, i.e., quantitative versions of Whitney's classical extension theorem, with special emphasis on the existence of continuous linear extension operators. The focus is on Denjoy-Carleman classes for which we develop the theory from scratch and discuss important related concepts such as (non-)quasianalyticity. It allows us to give an efficient and, to a fair extent, elementary introduction to Braun-Meise-Taylor classes based on their representation as intersections and unions of Denjoy-Carleman classes.
