Let $\Omega$ be a bounded, convex, centrally symmetric in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ with a connected $C^{2,\epsilon}$ ($\epsilon\in(0,1)$) boundary. We show that, if the following overdetermined elliptic problem \begin{equation} -\Delta u=\alpha…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a convex domain and let $f:\Omega \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ be a positive, subharmonic function (i.e. $\Delta f \geq 0$). Then $$ \frac{1}{|\Omega|} \int_{\Omega}{f dx} \leq \frac{c_n}{ |\partial \Omega| }…

The classical Weyl problem (solved by Lewy, Alexandrov, Pogorelov, and others) asks whether any metric of curvature $K\geq 0$ on the sphere is induced on the boundary of a unique convex body in $\R^3$. The answer was extended to surfaces in…

Inspired by work of Besson-Courtois-Gallot, we construct a flow called the natural flow on a non-positively curved Riemannian manifold $M$. As with the natural map, the $k$-Jacobian of the natural flow is directly related to the critical…

We consider the following eigenvalue optimization problem: Given a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\R^n$ and numbers $\alpha\geq 0$, $A\in [0,|\Omega|]$, find a subset $D\subset\Omega$ of area $A$ for which the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of…

We consider a free boundary problem in an exterior domain \begin{cases}\begin{array}{cc} Lu=g(u) & \text{in }\Omega\setminus K, \\ u=1 & \text{on }\partial K,\\ |\nabla u|=0 &\text{on }\partial \Omega, \end{array}\end{cases} where $K$ is a…

We prove that the class of convex-cocompact Kleinian groups is quasi-isometrically rigid. We also establish that a word hyperbolic group with a planar boundary different from the sphere is virtually a convex-cocompact Kleinian group…

We prove that the cardinality of the torsion subgroups in homology of a closed hyperbolic manifold of any dimension can be bounded by a doubly exponential function of its diameter. It would follow from a conjecture by Bergeron and Venkatesh…

Let $C\subseteq \{1,\ldots,k\}^n$ be such that for any $k$ distinct elements of $C$ there exists a coordinate where they all differ simultaneously. Fredman and Koml\'os studied upper and lower bounds on the largest cardinality of such a set…

We improve a lower bound for the smallest area of convex covers for closed unit curves from 0.0975 to 0.1, which makes it substantially closer to the current best upper bound 0.11023. We did this by considering the minimal area of convex…

We show that a one-ended simply connected at infinity hyperbolic group $G$ with enough codimension-1 surface subgroups has $\partial G \cong \mathbb{S}^2$. Combined with a result of Markovic, our result gives a new characterization of…

In 2013, Koldobsky posed the problem to find a constant $d_n$, depending only on the dimension $n$, such that for any origin-symmetric convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ there exists an $(n-1)$-dimensional linear subspace…

We adapt an argument of Tao and Vu to show that if $\lambda_1\le\cdots\le\lambda_d$ are the successive minima of an origin-symmetric convex body $K$ with respect to some lattice $\Lambda<\mathbb{R}^d$, and if we set…

We show that a Kleinian surface group, or hyperbolic 3-manifold with a cusp-preserving homotopy-equivalence to a surface, has bounded geometry if and only if there is an upper bound on an associated collection of coefficients that depend…

Let $(\Omega,K_{\Omega})$ be a convex domain in $\mathbb C^d$ with the Kobayashi metric $K_{\Omega}$. In this paper we prove that $m$-convexity is a necessary condition for $(\Omega, K_{\Omega})$ to be CAT(0) if $d=2$. Moreover, when…

Let $\Delta$ be a connected, pure $2$-dimensional simplicial complex embedded in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and let $C^{r}(\hat{\Delta})$ be the homogenized spline module of $\Delta$ with smoothness $r$. To study $C^{r}(\hat{\Delta})$, Schenck and…

High proved the following theorem. If the intersections of any two congruent copies of a plane convex body are centrally symmetric, then this body is a circle. In our paper we extend the theorem of High to the sphere and the hyperbolic…

We obtain a conceptually new differential geometric proof of P.F. Klembeck's result that the holomorphic sectional curvature of a strictly pseudoconvex domain approaches (in the boundary limit) the constant sectional curvature of the…

We show that for every $n \geq 2$ and $D > 0$ there exist a convex domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb H^n$ with diameter $D$ and a convex potential $V$ on $\Omega$ such that the fundamental gap of the operator $-\Delta+V$ is strictly smaller…

We prove that a trace inequality holds for John domains $\Omega$ satisfying $$ \mathcal H^{n-1}(\partial \Omega\setminus \partial_*\Omega)=0,$$ where $\partial_*\Omega$ denotes the measure-theoretic boundary, together with an upper density…
