Convex integration and the holonomic approximation theorem are two well-known pillars of flexibility in differential topology and geometry. They may each seem to have their own flavor and scope. The goal of this paper is to bring some new…

The h-principle is a powerful tool for obtaining solutions to partial differential inequalities and partial differential equations. Gromov discovered the h-principle for the general partial differential relations to generalize the results…

We strengthen the classical approximation theorems of Weierstrass, Runge and Mergelyan by showing the polynomial and rational approximants can be taken to have a simple geometric structure. In particular, when approximating a function $f$…

We prove the parametric homotopy principle for holomorphic immersions of Stein manifolds into Euclidian space and the homotopy principle with approximation on holomorphically convex sets. We write an integration by parts like formula for…

In differential topology and geometry, the h-principle is a property enjoyed by certain construction problems. Roughly speaking, it states that the only obstructions to the existence of a solution come from algebraic topology. We describe a…

The Gromov-Hausdorff distance provides a metric on the set of isometry classes of compact metric spaces. Unfortunately, computing this metric directly is believed to be computationally intractable. Motivated by applications in shape…

In this paper we introduce the notion of the realifications of an arbitrary \emph{partial holomorphic relation}. Our main result states that if any realification of an open partial holomorphic relation over a Stein manifold satisfies a…

We describe an alternative approach to some results of Vassiliev on spaces of polynomials, by using the scanning method which was used by Segal in his investigation of spaces of rational functions. We explain how these two approaches are…

We show that if $F(M)$ is some space of holonomic solutions with space of formal solutions $F^f(M)$ that satisfies a certain relative $h$-principle, then the non-relative map $F(M) \to F^f(M)$ admits a section up to homotopy. We apply this…

This paper explains an application of Gromov's h-principle to prove the existence, on any orientable 4-manifold, of a folded symplectic form. That is a closed 2-form which is symplectic except on a separating hypersurface where the form…

The inhomogeneous Groshev type theory for dual Diophantine approximation on manifolds is developed. In particular, the notion of nice manifolds is introduced and the divergence part of the theory is established for all such manifolds. Our…

For some geometries including symplectic and contact structures on an n-dimensional manifold, we introduce a two-step approach to Gromov's h-principle. From formal geometric data, the first step builds a transversely geometric Haefliger…

We show that a classical result of Gromov in symplectic geometry extends to the context of symplectic foliations, which we regard as a $h$-principle for (regular) Poisson geometry. Namely, we formulate a sufficient cohomological criterion…

Uniqueness (up to isometries) and existence of limits are studied in the context of Cheeger-Gromov convergence of spacetimes. To address the non-compactness of the vector isometry group in the semi-Riemannian setting, standard pointed…
