We show that two bi-Lipschitz equivalent Brieskorn-Pham hypersurfaces have the same multiplicities at $0$. Moreover we show that if two algebraic $(n-1)$-dimensional cones $P, R\subset\mathbb C^n$ with isolated singularities are…
We prove the Lipman-Zariski conjecture for complex surface singularities with $p_g - g - b \le 2$. Here $p_g$ is the geometric genus, $g$ is the sum of the genera of the exceptional curves and $b$ is the first Betti number of the dual…
We introduce a sectional criterion for testing if complex analytic germs $(X,0) \subset (\bC^n, 0)$ are Lipschitz non normally embedded.
We prove that for any $d>0$ there exists an embedding of the Riemann sphere $\mathbb P^1$ in a smooth complex surface, with self-intersection $d$, such that the germ of this embedding cannot be extended to an embedding in an algebraic…
The aim of this paper is to study the Lipschitz normally embedded property for a set and its medial axis. We consider if and when a non-LNE set implies non-LNE medial axis and converse. We present an example a of Lipschitz normally set that…
We find a complete set of local invariants of singular symplectic forms with the structurally stable Martinet hypersurface on a $2n$-dimensional manifold. In the $\mathbb C$-analytic category this set consists of the Martinet hypersurface…
We generalize McShane's identity for the length series of simple closed geodesics on a cusped hyperbolic surface to hyperbolic cone-surfaces (with all cone angles $\le \pi$), possibly with cusps and/or geodesic boundary. In particular, by…
We prove that tangent cones of Lipschitz normally embedded sets are Lipschitz normally embedded. We also extend to real subanalytic sets the notion of reduced tangent cone and we show that subanalytic Lipschitz normally embedded sets have…
We analyze the embedding dimension of a normal weighted homogeneous surface singularity, and more generally, the Poincar\'e series of the minimal set of generators of the graded algebra of regular functions, provided that the link of the…
We discuss the problem of deciding when a metrisable topological group $G$ has a canonically defined local Lipschitz geometry. This naturally leads to the concept of minimal metrics on $G$, that we characterise intrinsically in terms of a…
In this survey, we review part of the theory of superisolated surface singularities (SIS) and its applications including some new and recent developments. The class of SIS singularities is, in some sense, the simplest class of germs of…
We study the geometry of germs of definable (semialgebraic or subanalytic) sets over a $p$-adic field from the metric, differential and measure geometric point of view. We prove that the local density of such sets at each of their points…
We classify semi-algebraic surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with isolated singularities up to bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms with respect to the inner distance. In particular, we obtain complete classifications for the Nash surfaces and the complex…
We study the asymptotic cones of the universal covering spaces of closed 4-dimensional nonpositively curved real analytic manifolds. We show that the existence of nonstandard components in the Tits boundary, discovered by Christoph Hummel…
If (X,0) is a complex surface germ with a non-isolated singular locus we describe its singular link L of (X,0) and we show that the topology of L determines the topology of the normalization.
In this paper we consider a set $E\subset\Omega$ with prescribed mean curvature $f\in C(\Omega)$ and Euclidean Lipschitz boundary $\partial E=\Sigma$ inside a three-dimensional contact sub-Riemannian manifold $M$. We prove that if $\Sigma$…
We give a geometric criterion for a topological surface in the first Heisenberg group to be an intrinsic Lipschitz graph, using planar cones instead of the usual open cones.
Given a complex analytic germ $(X, 0)$ in $(\mathbb C^n, 0)$, the standard Hermitian metric of $\mathbb C^n$ induces a natural arc-length metric on $(X, 0)$, called the inner metric. We study the inner metric structure of the germ of an…
The main goal of this paper is a detailed study of asymptotic cones of the mapping class groups. In particular, we prove that every asymptotic cone of a mapping class group has a bi-Lipschitz equivariant embedding into a product of real…
We prove the following result: if a continuous vector field $F$ is Lipschitz when restricted to the hypersurfaces determined by a suitable foliation and a transversal condition is satisfied at the initial condition, then $F$ determines a…
