We consider the approximation of manifold-valued functions by embedding the manifold into a higher dimensional space, applying a vector-valued approximation operator and projecting the resulting vector back to the manifold. It is well known…

In this paper we deal with the task of uniformly approximating an $L$-biLipschitz curve by means of piecewise linear ones. This is rather simple if one is satisfied to have approximating functions which are $L'$-biLipschitz, for instance…

We show that on almost complex surfaces plurisubharmonic functions can be locally approximated by smooth plurisubharmonic functions. The main tool is the Poletsky type theorem due to U. Kuzman.

Let $M$ be a manifold with nonpositive sectional curvature and bounded geometry, and let $\Sigma$ be a uniformly embedded submanifold of $M.$ We estimate the $L^2(M)\to L^q(\Sigma)$ norm of a $\log$-scale spectral projection operator. It is…

We introduce the notions of almost Lipschitz embeddability and nearly isometric embeddability. We prove that for $p\in [1,\infty]$, every proper subset of $L_p$ is almost Lipschitzly embeddable into a Banach space $X$ if and only if $X$…

Given a smooth, complete Riemannian manifold $M$ with bounded Ricci curvature and positive injectivity radius, we derive a sharp Sobolev inequality for the embedding of $W^{1,p}(M)$ into $L^{\frac{np}{n-p}}(M)$, when $1\le p< n$. We will…

We show that for any point $p$ in a closed Riemannian manifold $M$, there exists at least one point $q\in M$ such that $p$ is critical for the distance function from $q$. We also show that such a point $q$ cannot always be reached with…
