We treat the classical notion of convexity in the context of hard real analysis. Definitions of the concept are given in terms of defining functions and quadratic forms, and characterizations are provided of different concrete notions of…

This is an elementary geometrical proof of Birkhoff theorem. It is hardly important, but the pictures behind are quite nice.

We introduce the notion of geometric pseudo-quantisation based on geometric quantisation with a weakened curvature condition. We show how such a structure arises naturally from simple deformations of the symplectic structure and pullbacks…

Let $G$ and $G'$ be simple Lie groups of equal real rank and real rank at least $2$. Let $\Gamma <G$ and $\Lambda < G'$ be non-uniform lattices. We prove a theorem that often implies that any quasi-isometric embedding of $\Gamma$ into…

We investigate how to glue hyperconvex (or injective) metric spaces such that the resulting space remains hyperconvex. We give two new criteria, saying that on the one hand gluing along strongly convex subsets and on the other hand gluing…

We outline a proof of the categorical geometric Langlands conjecture for GL(2), as formulated in reference [AG], modulo a number of more tractable statements that we call Quasi-Theorems.

We study $\lambda$-hypersurfaces that are critical points of a Gaussian weighted area functional $\int_{\Sigma} e^{-\frac{|x|^2}{4}}dA$ for compact variations that preserve weighted volume. First, we prove various gap and rigidity theorems…

While geometry with transcendental curves, like the Quadratrix of Hippias and the Spiral of Archimedes, played a significant role in our modern developments of geometry and algebra. The investigation has fallen off in the modern era despite…

Starting from a recently proposed framework for the evaluation of the cosmological averages, we evaluate the higher-order moments for the distribution of a given observable. Then, we explicitly discuss the case of the Hubble-Lema\^itre…

Historically, there have been many attempts to produce an appropriate mathematical formalism for modeling the nature of physical space, such as Euclid's geometry, Descartes' system of Cartesian coordinates, the Argand plane, Hamilton's…

We investigate the symmetric inverse M-matrix problem from a geometric perspective. The central question in this geometric context is, which conditions on the k-dimensional facets of an n-simplex S guarantee that S has no obtuse dihedral…

This article is concerned with the approximation of unbounded convex sets by polyhedra. While there is an abundance of literature investigating this task for compact sets, results on the unbounded case are scarce. We first point out the…
