We prove global rigidity for compact hyperbolic and spherical cone-3-manifolds with cone-angles $\leq \pi$ (which are not Seifert fibered in the spherical case), furthermore for a class of hyperbolic cone-3-manifolds of finite volume with…

This paper presents a study of the well-known marked length spectrum rigidity problem in the coarse-geometric setting. For any two (possibly non-proper) group actions $G\curvearrowright X_1$ and $G\curvearrowright X_2$ with contracting…

We give effective bilipschitz bounds on the change in metric between thick parts of a cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold and its long Dehn fillings. In the thin parts of the manifold, we give effective bounds on the change in complex length of a…

In this paper we examine the geometry of minimal surfaces of arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds. In particular, we give bounds on the totally geodesic 2-systole, construct infinitely many incommensurable manifolds with the same initial…

In this paper, we establish a Liouville type rigidity result for a class of asymptotically hyperbolic non-compact Einstein metrics defined on manifolds of dimension $d\ge 5$ extending the earlier result in dimension $d=4$.

We introduce the notion of a topological geodesic in a 3-manifold. Under suitable hypotheses on the fundamental group, for instance word-hyperbolicity, topological geodesics are shown to have the useful properties of, and play the same role…

An important, if relatively less well known aspect of the singularity theorems in Lorentzian Geometry is to understand how their conclusions fare upon weakening or suppression of one or more of their hypotheses. Then, theorems with modified…

In this paper, we study some intrinsic characterization of conformally compact manifolds. We show that, if a complete Riemannian manifold admits an essential set and its curvature tends to -1 at infinity in certain rate, then it is…

In this work, we prove the following three rigidity results: (i) in a real-analytic globally hyperbolic spacetime $(M,g)$ without boundary, the time separation function restricted to a thin exterior layer of a unknown compact subset $K…

In a recent paper Hodgson and Kerckhoff prove a local rigidity theorem for finite volume, three dimensional hyperbolic cone-manifolds. In this paper we extend this result to geometrically finite cone-manifolds. Our methods also give a new…

The deformation theory of hyperbolic and Euclidean cone-manifolds with all cone angles less then 2{\pi} plays an important role in many problems in low dimensional topology and in the geometrization of 3-manifolds. Furthermore, various old…

We show that every sequence of torsion-free arithmetic congruence lattices in $\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb R)$ or $\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb C)$ satisfies a strong quantitative version of the Limit Multiplicity property. We deduce that for $R>0$ in…

We study Riemannian manifolds $(M^n,g)$ with mean-convex boundary whose Ricci curvature is nonnegative in a spectral sense. Our first main result is a sharp spectral extension of a rigidity theorem by Kasue: we prove that under the…

Real algebraic geometry is the study of semi-algebraic sets, subsets of $\R^k$ defined by Boolean combinations of polynomial equalities and inequalities. The focus of this thesis is to study quantitative results in real algebraic geometry,…

We establish rigidity for partial transformation groupoids associated with algebraic actions of semigroups: If two such groupoids (satisfying appropriate conditions) are isomorphic, then the globalizations of the initial algebraic actions…

We show that the geodesic period spectrum of a Riemannian 2-orbifold all of whose geodesics are closed depends, up to a constant, only on its orbifold topology and compute it. In the manifold case we recover the fact proved by Gromoll,…

We review boundary rigidity theorems assessing that, under appropriate conditions, Riemannian manifolds with the same spectrum of boundary geodesics are isometric. We show how to apply these theorems to the problem of reconstructing a $d+1$…

Rigidity theory studies the properties of graphs that can have rigid embeddings in a euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$ or on a sphere and which in addition satisfy certain edge length constraints. One of the major open problems in this field…

We present a variety of geometrical and combinatorial tools that are used in the study of geometric structures on surfaces: volume, contact, symplectic, complex and almost complex structures. We start with a series of local rigidity results…

In this paper, we prove a rigidity theorem of asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds only under the assumptions on curvature. Its proof is based on analyzing asymptotic structures of such manifolds at infinity and a volume comparison theorem.
