We prove that the image of an isometric embedding into ${\mathbb R}^3$ of a two dimensionnal complete Riemannian manifold $(\Sigma, g)$ without boundary is a convex surface provided both the embedding and the metric $g$ enjoy a…

The boundary rigidity problem is a classical question from Riemannian geometry: if $(M, g)$ is a Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary, is the geometry of $M$ determined up to isometry by the metric $d_g$ induced on the boundary…

A linearly constrained framework in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is a point configuration together with a system of constraints which fixes the distances between some pairs of points and additionally restricts some of the points to lie in given affine…

We establish a global rigidity theorem for Riemannian metrics without conjugate points on three-manifolds of the form $M = \Sigma \times S^1$, where $\Sigma$ is a compact orientable surface of genus at least 2. The main result states that…

We study two inverse problems on a globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifold $(M,g)$. The problems are: 1. Passive observations in spacetime: Consider observations in a neighborhood $V\subset M$ of a time-like geodesic $\mu$. Under natural…

Length spectral rigidity is the question of under what circumstances the geometry of a surface can be determined, up to isotopy, by knowing only the lengths of its closed geodesics. It is known that this can be done for negatively curved…

We derive a continuum model for incompatible elasticity as a variational limit of a family of discrete nearest-neighbor elastic models. The discrete models are based on discretizations of a smooth Riemannian manifold $(M,\mathfrak{g})$,…

We consider sequences of metrics, $g_j$, on a Riemannian manifold, $M$, which converge smoothly on compact sets away from a singular set $S\subset M$, to a metric, $g_\infty$, on $M\setminus S$. We prove theorems which describe when…

The marked length spectrum (MLS) of a closed negatively curved manifold $(M, g)$ is known to determine the metric $g$ under various circumstances. We show that in these cases, (approximate) values of the MLS on a sufficiently large finite…
