Let (M^n,g) be a n-dimensional complete, non-compact and connected Riemannian manifold, with Ricci tensor Ricc_g and sectional curvature Sec_g. Assume Ricc_g\geq (1-n)B^2, and either p>2 and Sec_g(x)=o(dist^2(x,a)) when dist^2(x,a)\to\infty…

The standard arithmetic measures of center, the mean and median, have natural topological counterparts which have been widely used in continuum theory. In the context of metric spaces it is natural to consider the Lipschitz continuous…

Let $g_S$ be the Simanca metric on the blow-up $\tilde{\mathbb{C}}^2$ of $\mathbb{C}^2$ at the origin. We show that $(\tilde{\mathbb{C}}^2,g_S)$ admits a regular quantization. We use this fact to prove that all coefficients in the…

This paper extends the theory of regular solutions ($C^1$ in a suitable sense) for a class of semilinear elliptic equations in Hilbert spaces. The notion of regularity is based on the concept of $G$-derivative, which is introduced and…

A generalisation of Riemannian geometry is considered, based exclusively on the minimal assumptions that the line element $ds$ is a regular function of position and direction and that the distance of every point from itself is equal to…

A half-geodesic is a closed geodesic realizing the distance between any pair of its points. All geodesics in a round sphere are half-geodesics. Conversely, this note establishes that Riemannian spheres with all geodesics closed and…

Let $\Sigma$ be a codimension one submanifold of an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$, $n\geqslant 2$. We give a necessary condition for an isometric immersion of $\Sigma$ into $\mathbb R^q$ equipped with the standard Euclidean…

With inspiration from the K\"ahler geometry, we introduce a metric structure on the energy class, $\mathcal{E}_{1,m}$, of $m$-subharmonic functions with bounded energy and show that it is complete. After studying how the metric convergence…

We prove that the geodesic equations of all Sobolev metrics of fractional order one and higher on spaces of diffeomorphisms and, more generally, immersions are locally well posed. This result builds on the recently established real analytic…

A new distance function $\tilde{S}_{G,c}$ in metric space $(X,d)$ is introduced as \begin{align*} &\tilde{S}_{G,c}(x,y)=\log{\left(1+\frac{cd(x,y)}{\sqrt{1+d(x)}\sqrt{1+d(y)}}\right)} \end{align*} for $x$, $y\in X$ and $c$ is an arbitrary…

Reparametrization invariant Sobolev metrics on spaces of regular curves have been shown to be of importance in the field of mathematical shape analysis. For practical applications, one usually discretizes the space of smooth curves and…
