Analysis of non-compact manifolds almost always requires some controlled behavior at infinity. Without such, one neither can show, nor expect, strong properties. On the other hand, such assumptions restrict the possible applications and…

In this paper, we consider a finite-dimensional optimization problem minimizing a continuous objective on a compact domain subject to a multi-dimensional constraint function. For the latter, we assume the availability of a global Lipschitz…

We investigate here all the possible invariant metric functions under the action of various kinds of semi-direct product Poincar\'e subgroups and their deformed partners. The investigation exhausts the possible theoretical frameworks for…

The Finsler-relativistic metric function $F(g;R)$ and the associated Hamiltonian function $H(g;P)$, being considered together with explicit Finslerian special-relativistic kinematic transformations, give rise to a self-consistent and…

We study a general nonlinear parabolic equation on a Lipschitz bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^N$, \begin{equation*} \left\{\begin{array}{l l} \partial_t u-\mathrm{div} A(t,x,\nabla u)= f(t,x)&\text{in}\ \ \Omega_T,\\ u(t,x)=0 &\ \mathrm{ on}…

In this paper we study isometry-invariant Finsler metrics on inner product spaces over $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$, i.e. the Finsler metrics which do not change under the action of all isometries of the inner product space. We give a new…

We consider a scale invariant functional involving the anisotropic $p-$momentum, the anisotropic perimeter and the volume. We show that the Wulff shape, associated with the Finsler norm $F$ considered and centered at the origin, is the…

Let S be a surface of genus g with p punctures with negative Euler characteristic. We study the diameter of the $\epsilon$-thick part of moduli space of S equipped with the Teichm\"uller or Thurston's Lipschitz metric. We show that the…

Tukia and Vaisala showed that every quasi-conformal map of $\R^n$ extends to a quasi-conformal self-map of $\R^{n+1}$. The restriction of the extended map to the upper half-space $\R^n \times \R^+$ is, in fact, bi-Lipschitz with respect to…

We construct geodesics in the Wasserstein space of probability measure along which all the measures have an upper bound on their density that is determined by the densities of the endpoints of the geodesic. Using these geodesics we show…

A tetrad-based procedure is presented for solving Einstein's field equations for spherically-symmetric systems; this approach was first discussed by Lasenby et al. in the language of geometric algebra. The method is used to derive metrics…

We use spectral invariants in Lagrangian Floer theory in order to show that there exist \emph{isometric} embeddings of normed linear spaces (finite or infinite dimensional, depending on the case) into the space of Hamiltonian deformations…

The definition of quasi-local mass for a bounded space-like region in space-time is essential in several major unsettled problems in general relativity. The quasi-local mass is expected to be a type of flux integral on the boundary…

We solve two main questions on linear structures of (non-)norm-attaining Lipschitz functions. First, we show that for every infinite metric space $M$, the set consisting of Lipschitz functions on $M$ which do not strongly attain their norm…
