The paper initiates a systematic study of Moebius structures and Ptolemy spaces. We conjecture that every compact Ptolemy space with circles and many space inversions is Moebius equivalent to the boundary at infinity of a rank one symmetric…
We show that under certain mild conditions, a metric simplicial complex which satisfies the Ptolemy inequality is a CAT(0) space. Ptolemy's inequality is closely related to inversions of metric spaces. For a large class of metric simplicial…
A Moebius structure (on a set X) is a class of metrics having the same cross-ratios. A Moebius structure is ptolemaic if it is invariant under inversion operations. The boundary at infinity of a CAT(-1) space is in a natural way a Moebius…
In this paper we characterize compact extended Ptolemy metric spaces with many circles up to M\"obius equivalence. This characterization yields a M\"obius characterization of the $n$-dimensional spheres $S^n$ and hemispheres $S^n_+$ when…
I consider compact metric spaces which admit intrinsic isometries to Euclidean d-space. The main result roughly states that the class of these spaces coincides with class of inverse limits of Euclidean d-polyhedra.
We characterize the class of Gromov hyperbolic spaces, whose boundary at infinity allow canonical M\"obius structures.
We verify the infinitesimal inversive rigidity of almost all triangulated circle polyhedra in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{E}^{2}$, as well as the infinitesimal inversive rigidity of tangency circle packings on the $2$-sphere…
In this paper we study geodesic Ptolemy metric spaces $X$ which allow proper and cocompact isometric actions of crystallographic or, more generally, virtual polycyclic groups. We show that $X$ is equivariantly rough isometric to a Euclidean…
We introduce a kind of converse of Pompeiu's theorem. Fix an equilateral triangle $\triangle A_0B_0C_0$, then for any triangle $\triangle ABC$ there is a unique point $P$ inside the circumcircle $\Gamma_0$ of $\triangle A_0B_0C_0$ such that…
In this article we introduce a new class of weighted sequence spaces of Sobolev type and prove several compact embedding theorems for them. It is our contention that the chosen class is general enough so as to allow applications in various…
We study families of submanifolds in symmetric spaces of compact type arising as exponential images of s-orbits of variable radii. Special attention is given to the cases where the s-orbits are symmetric.
We prove a sharp logarithmic Sobolev inequality which holds for submanifolds in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension and codimension. Like the Michael-Simon Sobolev inequality, this inequality includes a term involving the mean curvature.
We generalize Cauchy's celebrated theorem on the global rigidity of convex polyhedra in Euclidean $3$-space $\mathbb{E}^{3}$ to the context of circle polyhedra in the $2$-sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2}$. We prove that any two convex and proper…
We prove that the moduli space of rational curves with cyclic action, constructed in our previous work, is realizable as a wonderful compactification of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement in a product of projective spaces. By…
The moduli space of Frobenius manifolds carries a natural involutive symmetry, and a distinguished class - so-called modular Frobenius manifolds - lie at the fixed points of this symmetry. In this paper a classification of semi-simple…
We have studied homeomorphisms that satisfy the Poletsky-type inverse inequality in the domain of the Euclidean space. It is proved that the uniform limit of the family of such homeomorphisms is either a homeomorphism into the Euclidean…
A result of M. Ledoux is that a complete Riemannian manifold with non negative Ricci curvature satisfying the Euclidean Sobolev inequality is the Euclidean space. We present a shortcut of the proof. We also give a refinement of a result of…
We consider the Cohen-Macaulay compactification of the space of twisted cubics in projective n-space. This compactification is the fine moduli scheme representing the functor of CM-curves with Hilbert polynomial 3t+1. We show that the…
We show, by an elementary and explicit construction, that the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of certain symplectic manifolds, endowed with Hofer's metric, contains subgroups quasi-isometric to Euclidean spaces of arbitrary dimension.
We introduce the class of almost symmetric submanifolds of Euclidean space, a close relative of symmetric submanifolds and (contact) sub-Riemannian symmetric spaces. More specifically, we prove that every full irreducible almost symmetric…
