In the context of metric structures introduced by Ben Yaacov, Berenstein, Henson, and Usvyatsov, we exhibit an explicit encoding of metric structures in countable signatures as pure metric spaces in the empty signature, showing that such…
Motivated by the fundamental theorem of calculus, and based on the works of Feller as well as Kac and Kre\u{\i}n, given an atomless Borel probability measure $\eta$ supported on a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$, Freiberg and Z\"{a}hle…
We investigate topological properties of density matrices motivated by the question to what extent phenomena like topological insulators and superconductors can be generalized to mixed states in the framework of open quantum systems. The…
We define the topological entropy per unit volume in parabolic PDE's such as the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation, and show that it exists, and is bounded by the upper Hausdorff dimension times the maximal expansion rate. We then give a…
We introduce two new homology theories of orbifolds from some special type of triangulations adapted to an orbifold, called AW-homology and DW-homology. The main idea in the definitions of these two homology theories is that we use…
In this paper we examine the use of topological methods for multivariate statistics. Using persistent homology from computational algebraic topology, a random sample is used to construct estimators of persistent homology. This estimation…
Magnitude homology was introduced by Hepworth and Willerton in the case of graphs, and was later extended by Leinster and Shulman to metric spaces and enriched categories. Here we introduce the dual theory, magnitude cohomology, which we…
Let m be a unidimensional measure with dimension d. A natural question is to ask if the measure m is comparable with the Hausdorff measure (or the packing measure) in dimension d. We give an answer (which is in general negative) to this…
Given a triangulation of a closed, oriented, irreducible, atoroidal 3-manifold every oriented, incompressible surface may be isotoped into normal position relative to the triangulation. Such a normal oriented surface is then encoded by…
We show that the complex hyperbolic metrics defined by Deligne-Mostow and Thurston on ${\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}$ are singular K\"ahler-Einstein metrics when ${\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}$ is embedded in the Deligne-Mumford-Knudsen compactification…
The purpose of this note is to record a consequence, for general metric spaces, of a recent result of David Bate. We prove the following fact: Let $X$ be a compact metric space of topological dimension $n$. Suppose that the $n$-dimensional…
We suggest several mathematical counterparts to the idea of "effective degrees of freedom" and formulate specific questions, much of which are inspired by Larry Guth's results and ideas on the Hermann Weyl kind of asymptotics of the Morse…
The shape of homogeneous, generic, smooth convex bodies as described by the Euclidean distance with nondegenerate critical points, measured from the center of mass represents a rather restricted class M_C of Morse-Smale functions on S^2.…
For closed hyperbolic $3$-manifolds $M$ with volume less than a constant $V$, we prove an inequality regarding the geometric $L^2$-norm and the topological Thurston norm, which is qualitatively sharp and verifies a conjecture of Brock and…
By a result of W.~P. Thurston, the moduli space of flat metrics on the sphere with $n$ cone singularities of prescribed positive curvatures is a complex hyperbolic orbifold of dimension $n-3$. The Hermitian form comes from the area of the…
Volume is a natural measure of complexity of a Riemannian manifold. In this survey, we discuss the results and conjectures concerning n-dimensional hyperbolic manifolds and orbifolds of small volume.
In this paper we study the dependence of geometric properties of Radon measures, such as Hausdorff dimension and rectifiability of singular sets, on the wavefront set. This is achieved by adapting the method of Brummelhuis to the…
We develop a new method to estimate the area, and more generally the intrinsic volumes, of a compact subset $X$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ from a set $Y$ that is close in the Hausdorff distance. This estimator enjoys a linear rate of convergence as…
In 1914, F. Hausdorff defined a metric on the set of closed subsets of a metric space $X$. This metric induces a topology on the set $H$ of compact subsets of $X$, called the Hausdorff topology. We show that the topological space $H$…
In this article we extend the notion of metric measure spaces to so-called metric two-level measure spaces (m2m spaces): An m2m space $(X, r, \nu)$ is a Polish metric space $(X, r)$ equipped with a two-level measure $\nu \in…
