Given a smooth free action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ on a smooth compact manifold $M$, we show that the space of $G$-invariant Riemannian metrics on $M$ whose automorphism group is precisely $G$ is open dense in the space of all…

In this paper, combining the Rashevsky-Chow-Sussmann (orbit) theorem with the Ambrose-Singer theorem, we introduce the notion of controllable principal connections on principal $G$-bundles. Using this concept, under a mild assumption of…

In this paper we address the relationship between Gromov-Hausdorff limits and intrinsic flat limits of complete Riemannian manifolds. In \cite{SormaniWenger2010, SormaniWenger2011}, Sormani-Wenger show that for a sequence of Riemannian…

We study the Gromov-Hausdorff convergence of metric pairs and metric tuples and prove the equivalence of different natural definitions of this concept. We also prove embedding, completeness and compactness theorems in this setting. Finally,…

We prove that if a sequence of geodesically complete CAT$(0)$-spaces $X_j$ with uniformly cocompact discrete groups of isometries converges in the Gromov-Hausdorff sense to $X_\infty$, then the dimension of the maximal Euclidean factor…

Consider a sequence of Riemannian manifolds $(M^n_i,g_i)$ with scalar curvatures and entropies bounded below by small constants $R_i,\mu_i \geq-\epsilon_i$. The goal of this paper is to understand notions of convergence and the structure of…

We say that a metric space $X$ is $(\epsilon,G)$-homogeneous if $G<Iso(X)$ is a discrete group of isometries with $diam(X/G)<\epsilon$.\ A sequence of $(\epsilon_i,G_i)$-homogeneous spaces $X_i$ with $\epsilon_i\to0$ is called a sequence of…

Let $(M,g)$ be a $C^\infty$-smooth, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold which is diffeomorphic to $\RR^n$ and admit an action of a properly discontinuous and cocompact group. This work proves the existence of a $C^\infty$ equivariant…

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…

The Gromov-Hausdorff distance provides a metric on the set of isometry classes of compact metric spaces. Unfortunately, computing this metric directly is believed to be computationally intractable. Motivated by applications in shape…

One of the most powerful theorems in metric geometry is the Arzela-Ascoli Theorem which provides a continuous limit for sequences of equicontinuous functions between two compact spaces. This theorem has been extended by Gromov and…

In this article, we prove several results about the extension to the boundary of conformal immersions from an open subset $\Omega$ of a Riemannian manifold $L$, into another Riemannian manifold $N$ of the same dimension. In dimension $n…

For a sequence $\{(M_i, g_i, x_i)\}$ of pointed Riemannian manifolds with boundary, the sequence $\{(M_i,\tilde g_i,x_i)\}$ is its conformal satellite if the metric $\tilde g_i$ is conformal to $g_i$, that is, $\tilde…

In this paper we explore a special class of metric spaces called smocked metric spaces and study their tangent cones at infinity. We prove that under the right hypotheses, the rescaled limits of balls converge in both the Gromov-Hausdorff…

We establish a structure theorem for minimizing sequences for the isoperimetric problem on noncompact $\mathsf{RCD}(K,N)$ spaces $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathcal{H}^N)$. Under the sole (necessary) assumption that the measure of unit balls is…

We prove that for any given compact Riemannian manifold $N$ of dimension $n+1 \geq 3$ and any non-negative Lipschitz function $g$ on $N$, there exists a quasi-embedded, boundaryless hypersurface $M \subset N,$ of class $C^{2, \alpha}$ for…

Let $(M,g_0)$ be a closed oriented $n$-manifold that is locally isometric to a product $(X^{n_1}_1,g_1)\times\cdots (X_k^{n_k},g_k)$, where each $n_i\ge 3,$ and each factor $(X_i^{n_i},g_i)$ is a negatively curved symmetric space. We study…

We prove that every quasisphere is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of a sequence of locally smooth uniform quasispheres. We also prove an analogous result in the bi-Lipschitz setting. This extends recent results of D. Ntalampekos from dimension…
