We show that any total preorder on a set with $\binom{n}{2}$ elements coincides with the order on pairwise distances of some point collection of size $n$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n-1}$. For linear orders, a collection of $n$ points in…
This paper makes a formal study of asymptotically hyperbolic Einstein metrics given, as conformal infinity, a conformal manifold with boundary. The space on which such an Einstein metric exists thus has a finite boundary in addition to the…
We establish that solving an optimal transportation problem in which the source and target densities are defined on manifolds with different dimensions, is equivalent to solving a new nonlocal analog of the Monge-Amp\`ere equation,…
We enumerate self-avoiding walks and polygons, counted by perimeter, on the quasiperiodic rhombic Penrose and Ammann-Beenker tilings, thereby considerably extending previous results. In contrast to similar problems on regular lattices,…
We study degenerate quasilinear elliptic equations on Riemannian manifolds and obtain several Liouville theorems. Notably, we provide rigorous proof asserting the nonexistence of positive solutions to the subcritical Lane-Emden-Fowler…
In this work we investigate solvable and nilpotent Lie groups with special metrics. The metrics of interest are left-invariant Einstein and algebraic Ricci soliton metrics. Our main result shows that the existence of a such a metric is…
Given a closed subset $\La$ of the open unit ball $B_1\subset \real^n$, $n \geq 3$, we will consider a complete Riemannian metric $g$ on $\bar{B_1} \setminus \La$ of constant scalar curvature equal to $n(n-1)$ and conformally related to the…
We show that a uniformly Euclidean metric with isolated singularity on $M^n = T^n \# M_0$, where $4\leq n\leq 7$ or $n\geq 4$, $M_0$ spin, and nonnegative scalar curvature on the smooth part is Ricci flat and extends smoothly over the…
Riemannian optimization uses local methods to solve optimization problems whose constraint set is a smooth manifold. A linear step along some descent direction usually leaves the constraints, and hence retraction maps are used to…
Motivated by problems related to quasi-local mass in general relativity, we study the static metric extension conjecture proposed by R. Bartnik \cite{Bartnik_energy}. We show that, for any metric on $\bar{B}_1$ that is close enough to the…
Let $E$ be a complete Hausdorff locally convex space over $\mathbb{C}_{p},$ let $A\in\mathcal{L}(E)$ such that $(I-\lambda A)^{-1}$ is analytic on its domain. In this paper, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on the resolvent of…
In this paper we present a new approach to the study of asymptotically flat static metrics arising in general relativity. In the case where the static potential is bounded, we introduce new quantities which are proven to be monotone along…
We consider linear optimization over a fixed compact convex feasible region that is semi-algebraic (or, more generally, "tame"). Generically, we prove that the optimal solution is unique and lies on a unique manifold, around which the…
We give an explicit local classification of conformally equivalent but oppositely oriented Kaehler metrics on a 4-manifold which are toric with respect to a common 2-torus action. In the generic case, these structures have an intriguing…
In a recent preprint, Chi Li proved that aymptotically conical complex manifolds with regular tangent cone at infinity admit holomorphic compactifications (his result easily extends to the quasiregular case). In this short note, we show…
We prove the arborescence of any locally finite complex that is $CAT(0)$ with a polyhedral metric for which all vertex stars are convex. In particular locally finite $CAT(0)$ cube complexes or equilateral simplicial complexes are…
Ellipsoid fitting is of general interest in machine vision, such as object detection and shape approximation. Most existing approaches rely on the least-squares fitting of quadrics, minimizing the algebraic or geometric distances, with…
We consider infinite measure-preserving non-primitive self-similar tiling systems in Euclidean space $\mathbb R^d$. We establish the second-order ergodic theorem for such systems, with exponent equal to the Hausdorff dimension of a…
This paper studies sufficient conditions in a variational obstacle avoidance problem on complete Riemannian manifolds. That is, we minimize an action functional, among a set of admissible curves, which depends on an artificial potential…
We obtain Ricci flat K\"ahler metrics on complex symmetric spaces of rank two by using an explicit asymptotic model whose geometry at infinity is interpreted in the wonderful compactification of the symmetric space. We recover the metrics…
