A celebrated result of Beck shows that for any set of $N$ points on $\mathbb{S}^d$ there always exists a spherical cap $B \subset \mathbb{S}^d$ such that number of points in the cap deviates from the expected value $\sigma(B) \cdot N$ by at…
Let $\Sigma$ be a closed subset of $\mathbb{R}^ {n+1}$ which is parabolic Ahlfors-David regular and assume that $\Sigma$ satisfies a 2-sided corkscrew condition. Assume, in addition, that $\Sigma$ is either time-forwards Ahlfors-David…
As already mentioned by Lawvere in his 1973 paper, the characterisation of Cauchy completeness of metric spaces in terms of representability of adjoint distributors amounts to the idempotent-split property of an ordinary category when the…
We prove that if a continuous piecewise-smooth map on $\mathbb{R}^n$ is comprised of two linear functions, has a bounded orbit, and satisfies a certain non-degeneracy condition, then it has a fixed point. The result has important…
In this paper, we study a class of Banach spaces, called \phi-spaces. In a natural way, we associate a measure of weak compactness in such spaces and prove an analogue of Sadovskii fixed point theorem for weakly sequentially continuous…
Finite rank median spaces are a simultaneous generalisation of finite dimensional ${\rm CAT}(0)$ cube complexes and real trees. If $\Gamma$ is an irreducible lattice in a product of rank one simple Lie groups, we show that every action of…
We extend the Global Compactness result by M. Struwe (Math. Z, 1984) to any fractional Sobolev spaces $\dot{H}^s(\Omega)$ for $0<s<N/2$ and $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ a bounded domain with smooth boundary. The proof is a simple direct…
The topological Tverberg theorem claims that for any continuous map of the (q-1)(d+1)-simplex to R^d there are q disjoint faces such that their images have a non-empty intersection. This has been proved for affine maps, and if $q$ is a…
After introducing the different boundary geometries of rank one symmetric spaces, we state and prove Fried's theorem in the general setting of all those geometries: a closed manifold with a similarity structure is either complete or the…
We show that the Morse boundary of a Morse local-to-global group is $\sigma$-compact. Moreover, we show that the converse holds for small cancellation groups. As an application, we show that the Morse boundary of a non-hyperbolic, Morse…
We study the saturation properties of several classes of $C^*$-algebras. Saturation has been shown by Farah and Hart to unify the proofs of several properties of coronas of $\sigma$-unital $C^*$-algebras; we extend their results by showing…
Defect of compactness for non-compact imbeddings of Banach spaces can be expressed in the form of a profile decomposition. This paper extends the profile decomposition for Sobolev spaces proved by Solimini (AIHP 1995) to the non-reflexive…
A partial algebra construction of Gr\"atzer and Schmidt from "Characterizations of congruence lattices of abstract algebras" (Acta Sci. Math. (Szeged) 24 (1963), 34-59) is adapted to provide an alternative proof to a well-known fact that…
On a compact three-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary, we prove the compactness of the full set of conformal metrics with positive constant scalar curvature and constant mean curvature on the boundary. This involves a blow-up…
The aim of this paper is to generalize some fixed point theorems in the class of convex contraction of order $m$ on a complete suprametric space. Then, we will prove that the class of convex contraction of order m is strong enough to…
A topological space is totally paracompact if any base of this space contains a locally finite subcover. We focus on a problem of Curtis whether in the class of regular Lindel\"of spaces total paracompactness is equivalent to the Menger…
We give a new, simpler proof of a compactness result in $GSBD^p$, $p>1$, by the same authors, which is also valid in $GBD$ (the case $p=1$), and shows that bounded sequences converge a.e., after removal of a suitable sequence of piecewise…
In 1941 Sumner Myers proved that if the Ricci curvature of a complete Riemann manifold has a positive infimum then the manifold is compact and its diameter is bounded in terms of the infimum. Subsequently the curvature hypothesis has been…
This is a review on brane effective actions, their symmetries and some of its applications. Its first part uncovers the Green-Schwarz formulation of single M- and D-brane effective actions focusing on kinematical aspects : the…
We study the closure of the convex hull of a compact set in a complete CAT(0) space. First we give characterization results in terms of compact sets and the closure of their convex hulls for locally compact CAT(0) spaces that are either…
