Rudin's version of the classical Julia-Wolff-Carath\'eodory theorem is a cornerstone of holomorphic function theory in the unit ball of $\mathbb{C}^d$. In this paper we obtain a complete generalization of Rudin's theorem for a holomorphic…

We give a proof of the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado Theorem using the Borel Fixed Point Theorem from algebraic group theory. This perspective gives a strong analogy between the Erd\H{o}s-Ko-Rado Theorem and (generalizations of) the Gerstenhaber…

Using tools and results from geometric measure theory, we give a simple new proof of the main result (Theorem 1.3) in K. Kondo and M. Tanaka, Approximation of Lipschitz Maps via Immersions and Differentiable Exotic Sphere Theorems,…

We show that any Carnot group contains a closed nowhere dense set which has measure zero but is not $\sigma$-porous with respect to the Carnot-Carath\'eodory (CC) distance. In the first Heisenberg group we observe that there exist sets…

We calculate the genus 1 Gromov-Witten theory of the Hilbert scheme $\mathsf{Hilb}^n(\mathbb{C}^2)$ of points in the plane. The fundamental 1-point invariant (with a divisor insertion) is calculated using a correspondence with the families…

The goal of these notes is to provide an informal introduction to Gromov-Witten theory with an emphasis on its role in counting curves in surfaces. These notes are based on a talk given at the Fields Institute during a week-long conference…

This book offers to study locally compact groups from the point of view of appropriate metrics that can be defined on them, in other words to study "Infinite groups as geometric objects", as Gromov writes it in the title of a famous…

We compute the Gromov-Witten potential at all genera of target smooth Riemann surfaces using Symplectic Field Theory techniques and establish differential equations for the full descendant potential. This amounts to impose (and possibly…

We present the geometry of spacetimes that are tangentially approximated by de Sitter spaces whose cosmological constants vary over spacetime. Cartan geometry provides one with the tools to describe manifolds that reduce to a homogeneous…

We prove a compact embedding theorem in a class of spaces of piecewise H1 functions subordinated to a class of shape regular, but not necessarily quasi-uniform triangulations of a polygonal domain. This result generalizes the…

We study the pullback theorem of Sobolev mappings on Carnot groups via mollification of mappings. With the pullback theorem we extend the classical result proved by Xiangdong Xie : Rigidity of Sobolev mappings $W^{1,p}(G_1;G_2)$ for…

We construct relative Gromov--Witten theory with expanded degenerations in the normal crossings setting and establish a degeneration formula for the resulting invariants. Given a simple normal crossings pair $(X,D)$, we show that there…

In this article a relation between curvature functionals for surfaces in the Euclidean space and area functionals in relative differential geometry will be given. Relative differential geometry can be described as the geometry of surfaces…

The main motivation of this paper arises from the study of Carnot-Carath\'eodory spaces, where the class of 1-rectifiable sets does not contain smooth non-horizontal curves; therefore a new definition of rectifiable sets including…

This article continues the study of diagrams in the bicategory of \'etale groupoid correspondences. We prove that any such diagram has a groupoid model and that the groupoid model is a locally compact \'etale groupoid if the diagram is…

In this work, a metric is presented on the set of boundedly-compact pointed metric spaces that generates the Gromov-Hausdorff topology. A similar metric is defined for measured metric spaces that generates the Gromov-Hausdorff-Prokhorov…

The equivariant Gromov--Hausdorff convergence of metric spaces is studied. Where all isometry groups under consideration are compact Lie, it is shown that an upper bound on the dimension of the group guarantees that the convergence is by…
