We study the horizontally regular curves in the Heisenberg groups $H_n$. We show the fundamental theorem of curves in $H_n$ $(n\geq 2)$ and define the concept of the orders for horizontally regular curves. We also show that the curve…

We show that quasiconformal maps on many Carnot groups must be biLipschitz. In particular, this is the case for 2-step Carnot groups with reducible first layer. These results have implications for the rigidity of quasiisometries between…

We study geodesics of the form $\gamma(t)=\pi(\exp(tX)\exp(tY))$, $X,Y\in \fr{g}=\operatorname{Lie}(G)$, in homogeneous spaces $G/K$, where $\pi:G\rightarrow G/K$ is the natural projection. These curves naturally generalise homogeneous…

We derive sharp estimates comparing asymptotic Riemannian or sub-Riemannian metrics in 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. For each metric, we construct a Carnot metric whose square remains at bounded distance from the square of the original…

In the setting of step 2 sub-Finsler Carnot groups with strictly convex norms, we prove that all infinite geodesics are lines. It follows that for any other homogeneous distance, all geodesics are lines exactly when the induced norm on the…

We call a subset $K$ of $\mathbb C$ \emph{biholomorphically homogeneous} if for any two points $p,q\in K$ there exists a neighborhood $U$ of $p$ and a biholomorphism $\psi:U\to \psi(U)\subset \mathbb C$ such that $\psi(p)=q$ and $\psi(K\cap…

We focus our attention on the notion of intrinsic Lipschitz graphs, inside a special class of metric spaces i.e. the Carnot groups. More precisely, we provide a characterization of locally intrinsic Lipschitz functions in Carnot groups of…

In this article, we show that given any integer $l\geq 2$, every closed curve $\gamma$ on the bouquet of $n$-circles $\Gamma$, admits a lift to a finite $l$-sheeted normal covering of $\Gamma$. Equivalently, identifying the free group $F_n$…

In this paper, we study an analytic curve $\varphi: I=[a,b]\rightarrow \mathrm{M}(m\times n, \mathbb{R})$ in the space of $m$ by $n$ real matrices, and show that if $\varphi$ satisfies certain geometric condition, then for almost every…
