A result of Bangert states that the stable norm associated to any Riemannian metric on the $2$-torus $T^2$ is strictly convex. We demonstrate that the space of stable norms associated to metrics on $T^2$ forms a proper dense subset of the…

We are concerned about improvements of the modulus of convexity by renormings of a super-reflexive Banach space. Typically optimal results are beyond Pisier's power functions bounds $t^p$, with $p \geq 2$, and they are related to the notion…

We study the irregularities of distribution on two-point homogeneous spaces. Our main result is the following: let $d$ be the real dimension of a two point homogeneous space $\mathcal{M}$, let $\left( \{ a_{j}\} _{j=1}^{N},\{ x_{j}\}…

Let $X$ be a Borel and Borel-regular metric measure space whose closed balls are of positive and finite measure. In this paper, we shall give equivalent conditions for averaging operators on non-reflexive Lebesgue spaces $L^1(X)$ and…

We provide a simple proof that in any homogeneous, compact metric space of diameter $D$, if one finds the average distance $A$ achieved in $X$ with respect to some isometry invariant Borel probability measure, then $$\frac{D}{2} \leq A \leq…

We prove that every two-dimensional quasisphere is the limit of a sequence of smooth spheres that are uniform quasispheres. In the case of metric spheres of finite area we provide necessary and sufficient geometric conditions for a…

In this paper we introduce the Constant Width Measure Set, which measures the constant width property of an oval, i.e. the planar simple closed strictly convex curve. We study its geometrical properties. We find the exact relation between…

Let X be a closed manifold of dimension 2m >= 6 with torsion-free middle-dimensional homology. We construct metrics on X of arbitrarily small volume, such that every middle-dimensional submanifold of less than unit volume necessarily…

We study the local regularity of sliding almost minimal sets of dimension 2 in $R^n$ , bounded by a smooth curve $L$. These are a good way to model soap films bounded by a curve, and their definition is similar to Almgren's. We aim for a…

In this paper we consider the setting of a locally compact, non-complete metric measure space $(Z,d,\nu)$ equipped with a doubling measure $\nu$, under the condition that the boundary $\partial Z:=\overline{Z}\setminus Z$ (obtained by…

There are three aims of this note. The first one is to report some advances around the dynamical Mordell-Lang (=DML) conjecture. Second, we generalize some known results. For example, the Dynamical Mordell-lang conjecture was known for…

We study the Daugavet property in the space of Lipschitz functions $\operatorname{Lip}_0(M)$ for a complete metric space $M$. Namely we show that $\operatorname{Lip}_0(M)$ has the Daugavet property if and only if $M$ is a length space. This…

Three themes of general topology: quotient spaces; absolute retracts; and inverse limits - are reapproached here in the setting of metrizable uniform spaces, with an eye to applications in geometric and algebraic topology. The results…

The classical isoperimetric inequality in the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{R}^2$ states that for a simple closed curve $M$ of the length $L_{M}$, enclosing a region of the area $A_{M}$, one gets \begin{align*} L_{M}^2\geqslant 4\pi A_{M}.…

In this paper we study a weaker form of the property $\text{\textbf{L}}_{o,o}$ called the weak $\text{\textbf{L}}_{o,o}$ and its uniform version called the weak $\text{BPB}_{\text{op}}$ which is again a weaker form the property…

We consider the unconstrained $L_2$-$L_p$ minimization: find a minimizer of $\|Ax-b\|^2_2+\lambda \|x\|^p_p$ for given $A \in R^{m\times n}$, $b\in R^m$ and parameters $\lambda>0$, $p\in [0,1)$. This problem has been studied extensively in…

In this note it is shown that if $\mu$ is an $n$-Ahlfors regular measure in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ such that the $n$-dimensional Riesz transform is bounded in $L^2(\mu)$ and the so-called BAUPP (bilateral approximation by unions of parallel…

Given a Banach space X and a subspace Y, the pair (X,Y) is said to have the approximation property (AP) provided there is a net of finite rank bounded linear operators on X all of which leave the subspace Y invariant such that the net…

Let X be a normed space. A subset A of X is approximately convex if $d(ta+(1-t)b,A) \le 1$ for all $a,b \in A$ and $t \in [0,1]$ where $d(x,A)$ is the distance of $x$ to $A$. Let $\Co(A)$ be the convex hull and $\diam(A)$ the diameter of…

A gauge $\gamma$ in a vector space $X$ is a distance function given by the Minkowski functional associated to a convex body $K$ containing the origin in its interior. Thus, the outcoming concept of gauge spaces $(X, \gamma)$ extends that of…
