We show that a locally Ahlfors 2-regular and locally linearly locally contractible metric surface is locally quasisymmetrically equivalent to the disk. We also discuss an application of this result to the problem of characterizing surfaces…

We explore the interplay between different definitions of distortion for mappings $f\colon X\to \mathbb{R}^2$, where $X$ is any metric surface, meaning that $X$ is homeomorphic to a domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$ and has locally finite…

We provide a proof of effective uniformization for nearly round 2-spheres, utilizing an identity related to the third-order differential of the conformal factor. This identity is connected to the geometry of the embedded spacelike surface…

Applying the Bonk-Kleiner characterization of Ahlfors 2-regular quasispheres, we show that a metric two-sphere $X$ is a quasisphere if and only if $X$ is linearly locally connected and carries a weak metric doubling measure, i.e., a measure…

We establish Euclidean-type lower bounds for the codimension-1 Hausdorff measure of sets that separate points in doubling and linearly locally contractible metric manifolds. This gives a quantitative topological isoperimetric inequality in…

Ahlfors and Gehring asked for the Riemann Mapping Theorem for quasiconformal mappings (QC) of R^3. We summarise our solution: (a) QC reflections are tame (b) T is the fixed set of a QC reflection iff T is a uniform sphere (i.e. the limits…

We study when a metric surface $X$ can be mapped quasisymmetrically onto a circle domain $D\subset\mathbb{C}$ with uniformly relatively separated boundary components. Bonk \cite{Bonk} proved that if $X\subset \hat{\mathbb{C}}$ and the…

We consider decomposition spaces $\R^3/G$ that are manifold factors and admit defining sequences consisting of cubes-with-handles. Metrics on $\R^3/G$ constructed via modular embeddings into Euclidean spaces promote the controlled topology…

We mainly investigate some properties of quasiconformal mappings between smooth 2-dimensional surfaces with boundary in the Euclidean space, satisfying certain partial differential equations (inequalities) concerning Laplacian, and in…

Examples show that Riemannian manifolds with almost-Euclidean lower bounds on scalar curvature and Perelman entropy need not be close to Euclidean space in any metric space sense. Here we show that if one additionally assumes an…

It is shown that a superconformal surface with arbitrary codimension in flat Euclidean space has a (necessarily unique) dual superconformal surface if and only if the surface is S-Willmore, the latter a well-known necessary condition to…

In an attempt to develop higher-dimensional quasiconformal mappings on metric measure spaces with curvature conditions, i.e. from Ahlfors to Alexsandrov, we show that a non-collapsed $\mathrm{RCD}(0,n)$ space ($n\geq2$) with Euclidean…

We say that a metric graph is uniformly bounded if the degrees of all vertices are uniformly bounded and the lengths of edges are pinched between two positive constants; a metric space is approximable by a uniform graph if there is one…

We show that, for each $n\ge 3$, there exists a smooth Riemannian metric $g$ on a punctured sphere $\mathbb{S}^n\setminus \{x_0\}$ for which the associated length metric extends to a length metric $d$ of $\mathbb{S}^n$ with the following…

We show that a homeomorphism of Euclidean space is quasiconformal if and only if at each point there exists a sequence of uncentered open sets with bounded eccentricity shrinking to that point whose images also have bounded eccentricity.…

We give a characterization of metric spaces quasisymmetrically equivalent to a finitely connected circle domain. This result generalizes the uniformization of Ahlfors 2-regular spaces by Merenkov and Wildrick.

We prove that if the shape of the metric unit ball in a homogeneous group enjoys a precise symmetry property, then the associated distance yields the standard form of the area formula. The result applies to some classes of smooth and…

In this article, we consider compact Riemannian 3-manifolds with boundary. We prove that if the $L^2$-norm of the curvature is small and if the $H^{1/2}$-norm of the difference of the fundamental forms of the boundary is small, then the…

Quasiconformal homeomorphisms of the whole space Rn, onto itself normalized at one or two points are studied. In particular, the stability theory, the case when the maximal dilatation tends to 1, is in the focus. Our main result provides a…

We derive lower estimates for the approximation of the $d$-dimensional Euclidean ball by polytopes with a fixed number of $k$-dimensional faces, $k\in\{0,1,\ldots,d-1\}$. The metrics considered include the intrinsic volume difference and…
