Let $(X, d)$ be a compact metric space and let $\mathcal{M}(X)$ denote the space of all finite signed Borel measures on $X$. Define $I \colon \mathcal{M}(X) \to \R$ by \[ I(\mu) = \int_X \int_X d(x,y) d\mu(x) d\mu(y), \] and set $M(X) =…

We introduce and investigate a quantitative version of Steinhaus' property $(S)$ for Banach spaces, called the uniform property $(S)$. A Banach space $X$ is said to have uniform $(S)$ if for every pair of distinct unit vectors $x,y\in X$…

We develop a structure theory for RCD spaces with curvature bounded above in Alexandrov sense. In particular, we show that any such space is a topological manifold with boundary whose interior is equal to the set of regular points. Further…

Let $P_N(R)$ be the space of all real polynomials in $N$ variables with the usual inner product $<, >$ on it, given by integrating over the unit sphere. We start by deriving an explicit combinatorial formula for the bilinear form…

We give a new proof of a theorem of Loos stating that a Riemannian symmetric space X with rectangular unit lattice is a symmetric R-space. For this we construct explicitly an isometric extrinsically symmetric embedding of X in a Euclidean…

We study some geometric properties of the $L_q$-centroid bodies $Z_q(\mu)$ of an isotropic log-concave measure $\mu $ on ${\mathbb R}^n$. For any $2\ls q\ls\sqrt{n}$ and for $\varepsilon \in (\varepsilon_0(q,n),1)$ we determine the inradius…

We produce many new complete, constant Q-curvature metrics on finitely punctured spheres by gluing together known examples. In our construction we truncate one end of each summand and glue the two summands together "end-to-end," where we've…

We give a characterization of critical points that allows us to define a metric invariant on all Riemannian manifolds $M$ with a lower sectional curvature bound and an upper radius bound. We show there is a uniform upper volume bound for…

On a given closed connected manifold of dimension two, or greater, we consider the squared $L^2$-norm of the scalar curvature functional over the space of constant volume Riemannian metrics. We prove that its critical points have constant…

We prove a sharp stable $2$-systolic inequality for complex projective space under the scalar curvature lower bound of the normalized Fubini-Study metric. If $M$ is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{C}\mathrm{P}^n$ and $\mathrm{scal}_g\ge 4n(n+1)$,…

One of the goals of this article is to define a an unified setting adapted to the description of means (normalized integrals or invariant means) on an infinite product of measured spaces with infinite measure. We first remark that some…

Let $D$ be an bounded region in ${\bf R}^n$. The regularity of solutions of a family of quasilinear elliptic partial differential equations is studied, one example being $\Delta_nu=Vu^{n-1}$. The coefficients are assumed to be in the space…

Our main result gives an improved bound on the filling areas of closed curves in Banach spaces which are not closed geodesics. As applications we show rigidity of Pu's classical systolic inequality and investigate the isoperimetric…

In this paper we explore the properties of a bounded linear operator defined on a Banach space, in light of operator norm attainment. Using Birkhoff-James orthogonality techniques, we give a necessary condition for a bounded linear operator…

We study the systolic area (defined as the ratio of the area over the square of the systole) of the 2-sphere endowed with a smooth riemannian metric as a function of this metric. This function, bounded from below by a positive constant over…

We prove that a locally compact space with an upper curvature bound is a topological manifold if and only if all of its spaces of directions are homotopy equivalent and not contractible. We discuss applications to homology manifolds, limits…

In this note we prove that, if $S_n$ is the greatest area of a rectangle which can be covered with $n$ unit disks, then $2\leq S_n/n<3 \sqrt{3}/2$, and these are the best constants; moreover, for $\Delta(n):=(3\sqrt{3}/2)n-S_n$, we have…

A new refinement of the triangle inequality is presented in normed linear spaces. Moreover, a simple characterization of inner product spaces is obtained by using the skew-angular distance.

Given $r_0>0$, $I\in \mathbb{N}\cup \{0\}$ and $K_0,H_0\geq 0$, let $X$ be a complete Riemannian $3$-manifold with injectivity radius $\mbox{Inj}(X)\geq r_0$ and with the supremum of absolute sectional curvature at most $K_0$, and let…

We introduce the $k$-stellated spheres and compare and contrast them with $k$-stacked spheres. It is shown that for $d \geq 2k$, any $k$-stellated sphere of dimension $d$ bounds a unique and canonically defined $k$-stacked ball. In…
