We show that a hyperbolic three-manifold $M$ containing a closed minimal surface with principal curvatures in $[-1,1]$ also contains nearby (non-minimal) surfaces with principal curvatures in $(-1,1)$. When $M$ is complete and homeomorphic…
We define billiards in the context of sub-Finsler Geometry. We provide symplectic and variational (or rather, control theoretical) descriptions of the problem and show that they coincide. We then discuss several phenomena in this setting,…
In this paper, we prove a scalar curvature rigidity result for geodesic balls in S^n. This result contrasts sharply with the recent counterexamples to Min-Oo's conjecture for the hemisphere (cf. [5]).
In this paper, we consider the problem of finding geodesics in a series of left-invariant problems endowed with sub-Lorentzian and Finsler structures. Explicit formulas for extremals are obtained in terms of convex trigonometric functions.…
A system of quasilinear elliptic equations on an unbounded domain is considered. The existence of a sequence of radially symmetric weak solutions is proved via variational methods.
An almost Fuchsian manifold is a hyperbolic 3-manifold of the type $S\times \mathbb{R}$ which admits a closed minimal surface (homeomorphic to $S$) with the maximum principal curvature $\lambda_0 <1$, while a weakly almost Fuchsian manifold…
In this paper we consider the following question: For bounded domains with smooth boundary, can strong pseudoconvexity be characterized in terms of the intrinsic complex geometry of the domain? Our approach to answering this question is…
We present existence results for weak solutions to a broad class of degenerate McKean-Vlasov equations with rough coefficients, expanding upon and refining the techniques recently introduced by the third author. Under certain structural…
In this paper we first make and discuss a conjecture concerning Newtonian potentials in Euclidean n space which have all their mass on the unit sphere about the origin, and are normalized to be one at the origin. The conjecture essentially…
In Euclidean and Hyperbolic space, and the hemisphere in $S^n$, geodesic balls maximize the gap $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ of Dirichlet eigenvalues, amoung domains with fixed $\lambda_1$. We prove an upper bound on $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ for…
Motivated by the results of B. Berndtsson, in this memoir we use the new estimates developed by W. He to extend a theorem of the second author on the existence of weak $C^{1,1}$ geodesics between two smooth non-degenerate K\"ahler…
In this paper we discuss some special generalizations of equationally Noetherian property which naturally arise in the universal algebraic geometry. We introduce weakly equationally Noetherian, qw-compact, uw-compact, and weakly uw-compact…
The present article includes the enumeration of $n$-polygons with two certain symmetry properties: For a number $3m$ of vertices, we count the $3m$-polygons with $m$ symmetry axes and the $3m$-polygons, that match after three elementary…
In this paper, we prove existence of \emph{very weak solutions} to nonhomogeneous quasilinear parabolic equations beyond the duality pairing. The main ingredients are a priori esitmates in suitable weighted spaces combined with the…
Let $(M, \partial M)$ be a compact 3-manifold with boundary, which admits a convex co-compact hyperbolic metric. We consider the hyperbolic metrics on $M$ such that the boundary is smooth and strictly convex. We show that the induced…
A $\lambda$-convex body in a three-dimensional space form $M^3(c)$ of constant curvature $c$ is a compact convex set $K$ whose boundary $\partial K$ has normal curvatures bounded below by a constant $\lambda>0$ (in a weak sense). Within…
In this paper, we provide some characterizations of strong pseudoconvexity by the boundary behavior of intrinsic invariants for smoothly bounded pseudoconvex domains of finite type in $\mathbb{C}^2$. As a consequence, if such domain is…
We develop a constructive process which determines all extreme points of the unit ball of the space of $m$--linear forms, $m\geq1.$ Our method provides a full characterization of the geometry of that space through finitely many elementary…
We study a general class of quasilinear elliptic equations with nonstandard growth to prove the existence of a very weak solution to such a problem. A key ingredient in the proof is a priori global weighted gradient estimate of a very weak…
The geometry of closed surfaces equipped with a Euclidean metric with finitely many conical points of arbitrary angle is studied. The main result is that the image of a non-closed geodesic has 0 distance from the set of conical points.…
