Let $(X,d)$ be a nonempty metric space and let $n\in \mathbb N^+$. We shall say that $T\colon X\to X$ is a graphic contraction of order $n$ if there exists $\alpha\in (0,1)$ such that the inequality $$ d(T^n x,T^{2n}x) \leqslant \alpha…

In this project we explore the geometry of general metric spaces, where we do not necessarily have the tools of differential geometry on our side. Some metric spaces $(X,d)$ allow us to define geodesics, permitting us to compare geodesic…

In the present paper we are going to prove some necessary condition for a mean to be Hardy. This condition is then applied to completely characterize the Hardy property among the Gini means.

We obtain a new bound on the number of two-rich points spanned by an arrangement of low degree algebraic curves in $\mathbb{R}^4$. Specifically, we show that an arrangement of $n$ algebraic curves determines at most $C_\epsilon…

We give necessary conditions for when a subset of $\mathbb{T}^n$ can contain the support of some non-zero RP-measure. Among other things we show that the support of a positive RP-measure cannot be contained in reflections of inverse images…

We investigate the Cauchy problem for a quasilinear equation with transport rough input of the form $\mathrm{d} u-\partial_i(a^{ij}(u)\partial_j u)\mathrm{d} t =\mathrm{d} \mathbf{X}_t^i(x)\partial_i u_t,$ $u_0\in L^2$ on the torus $\mathbb…

Let $X$ be a nonsingular projective $n$-fold $(n\ge 2)$ of Fano or of general type with ample canonical bundle $K_X$ over an algebraic closed field $\kappa$ of any characteristic. We produce a new method to give a bunch of inequalities in…

The spherical limit of strongly commensurate dirty-bosons is studied perturbatively at weak disorder and numerically at strong disorder in two dimensions (2D). We argue that disorder is not perfectly screened by interactions, and…

We study the least doubling constant $C_{(X,d)}$, among all doubling measures $\mu$ supported on a metric space $(X,d)$. In particular, we prove that for every metric space with more than one point, $C_{(X,d)}\ge 2$. We also describe some…

We say that a finite set S of points in R^d is in "strong general position" if for any collection {F_1,..., F_r} of r pairwise disjoint subsets of S (1 <= r <= |S|) we have: d-dim (the intersection of aff F_1,aff F_2,...,aff F_r) = min{d+1,…

A set of n non-collinear points in the Euclidean plane defines at least n different lines. Chen and Chv\'atal in 2008 conjectured that the same results is true in metric spaces for an adequate definition of line. More recently, this…

In this article, we establish several almost critical regularity conditions such that the weak solutions of the 3D Navier-Stokes equations become regular, based on one component of the solutions, say $u_3$ and $\partial_3u_3$.

Ptolemy's inequality is a classic relationship between the distances among four points in Euclidean space. Another relationship between six distances is the 4-point condition, an inequality satisfied by the lengths of the six paths that…

We prove that equally spaced choreography solutions of a large class of $n$-body problems including the classical $n$-body problem and a subset of quasi-homogeneous $n$-body problems, have equal masses if the dimension of the space spanned…

For a smooth curve $B$ over an algebraically closed field $k$, for every $B$-flat complete intersection $X_B$ in $B\times_{\text{Spec}\ k} \mathbb{P}^n_k$ of type $(d_1,\dots,d_c)$, if the Fano index is $\geq 2$ and if…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the sum of n subspaces of a Hilbert space to be closed. We also present various properties of n-tuples of subspaces with closed sum.

We consider the inhomogeneous version of the fixed-point equation of the smoothing transformation, that is, the equation $X \stackrel{d}{=} C + \sum_{i \geq 1} T_i X_i$, where $\stackrel{d}{=}$ means equality in distribution,…

We extend to arbitrary finite $n$ the notion of immobilization of a convex body $O$ in $R^n$ by a finite set of points $P$ in the boundary of $O$. Because of its importance for this problem, necessary and sufficient conditions are found for…

Given a CAT(0) cube complex X, we show that if Aut(X) $\neq$ Isom(X) then there exists a full subcomplex of X which decomposes as a product with $\mathbb{R}^n$. As applications, we prove that if X is $\delta$-hyperbolic, cocompact and…

The Hardy operator is not bounded on the space of integrable functions on the positive half-line and its discrete counterpart on summable sequences. we introduce a modified Hardy operator obtained by subtracting a natural corrective term,…
