We quantify conditions that ensure that a signed measure on a Riemannian manifold has a well defined centre of mass. We then use this result to quantify the extent of a neighbourhood on which the Riemannian barycentric coordinates of a set…

We prove that geodesic balls centered at some base point are isoperimetric in the real hyperbolic space $H_{\mathbb R}^n$ endowed with a smooth, radial, strictly log-convex density on the volume and perimeter. This is an analogue of the…

We give a short and simple proof of a recent result of Dobbins that any point in an $nd$-polytope is the barycenter of $n$ points in the $d$-skeleton. This new proof builds on the constraint method that we recently introduced to prove…

Geodesic metric spaces support a variety of averaging constructions for given finite sets. Computing such averages has generated extensive interest in diverse disciplines. Here we consider the inverse problem of recognizing computationally…

Given a space X, we study the homotopy type of ${\mathcal B}_n(X)$ the space obtained as "the union of all (n-1)-simplexes spanned by points in X". This is a space encountered in non-linear analysis under the name of "space of barycenters"…

We prove generalized versions of the Variance Inequality known for barycenters in CAT(0) spaces, inspired by an analogous result for $p$-uniformly convex Banach spaces. Our generalizations apply to balls of sufficiently small radius in…

We show that any universal quasigeodesic cone of uniformly coarse median spaces admits a canonical coarse median structure. As an application, we recover a result of Bowditch which states that any hierarchically hyperbolic space admits a…

We prove the existence of multiple closed geodesics on non-compact cylindrica manifolds.

We show that if $(X,d)$ is a metric space which admits a consistent convex geodesic bicombing, then we can construct a conical bicombing on $CB(X)$, the hyperspace of nonempty, closed, bounded, and convex subsets of $X$ (with the Hausdorff…

We prove that two dimensional convex subsets of spherical buildings are either buildings or have a center.

Let (X, d) be a Cat(k) space and P a bounded subset of X . If k > 0 then it is required that the diameter of P be less than Pi/(4 sqrt(k)) . Let u: P to R be a bounded non-negative function from P to R. The existence of a unique point in X…

We make some remarks on the existence of a geodesically complete core for any compact non-positively curved space.

This is the abstract of a series of lectures given during the XIIIth School on Geometry and Physics, Bialystok (Poland), in July 2024. In this minicourse, we first examine the algebraic aspects of barycentric algebras. Then, we focus on…

The work consists of solutions of metric problems for convex and finite subsets of geodesic spaces.

This article presents a new way to classify geodesics on a cone in the Euclidean 3-space. This proof is obtained considering our main result, which establishes the necessary and sufficient conditions that a curve in space must satisfy: to…

In this paper we study some generic properties of the geodesic flows on a convex sphere. We prove that, $C^r$ generically ($2\le r\le\infty$), every hyperbolic closed geodesic admits some transversal homoclinic orbits.

We study the barycenter of the Hellinger--Kantorovich metric over non-negative measures on compact, convex subsets of $\mathbb{R}^d$. The article establishes existence, uniqueness (under suitable assumptions) and equivalence between a…

In the present note, first we derive an intrinsic inequality for Pseudo-umbilical spacelike submanifold in an indefinite space form. We use this inequality to show that such submanifold is totally geodesic. In the rest part of this paper,…

We prove the integrability of geodesic flows on the Riemannian g.o. spaces of compact Lie groups, as well as on a related class of Riemannian homogeneous spaces having an additional principal bundle structure.

We prove the existence of equilibrium states for geometric potentials in a class of piecewise weakly convex interval maps. This class includes systems with indifferent fixed points and non-Markov partitions. Under additional hypotheses we…
