Here we present a rigidity result in a global (semi-global, homotopy) setting for a restrictive class of polytopes, those that can be inscribed in a unit sphere, with some additional conditions. The proof of the rigidity result for cabled…

We obtain an analog of Weyl's law for the Kohn Laplacian on lens spaces. We also show that two 3-dimensional lens spaces with fundamental groups of equal prime order are isospectral with respect to the Kohn Laplacian if and only if they are…

We describe the space of isometric immersions from the Lorentz plane $L^2$ into the 3-dimensional anti-de Sitter space, and solve several open problems of this context raised by M. Dajczer and K. Nomizu in 1981. We also obtain from the…

We prove that every Riemann surface not isomorphic to the Riemann sphere admits an infinitesimal deformation of the complex structure. The proof is based in an investigation of the length of geodesics for the Kobayashi/Poincare metric.

We show that if two closed hyperbolic surfaces (not necessarily orientable or even connected) have the same Laplace spectrum, then for every length they have the same number of orientation-preserving geodesics and the same number of…

Llarull's Theorem states that any Riemannian metric on the $n$-sphere which has scalar curv{\-}ature greater than or equal to $n(n-1)$, and whose distance function is bounded below by the unit sphere's, is isometric to the unit sphere.…

The question of whether a closed Riemannian manifold has infinitely many geometrically distinct closed geodesics has a long history. Though unsolved in general, it is well understood in the case of surfaces. For surfaces of revolution…

Given two semistable, non potentially isotrivial elliptic surfaces over a curve $C$ defined over a field of characteristic zero or finitely generated over its prime field, we show that any compatible family of effective isometries of the…

Let S be a compact surface of genus >1, and g be a metric on S of constant curvature K\in\{-1,0,1\} with conical singularities of negative singular curvature. When K=1 we add the condition that the lengths of the contractible geodesics are…

This is a survey on the recent progress in several applications of isoparametric theory, including an affirmative answer to Yau's conjecture on the first eigenvalue of Laplacian in the isoparametric case, a negative answer to Yau's 76th…

We prove a stability version of the isodiametric inequality on the sphere and in the hyperbolic space.

This paper gives a survey of recent progress in isoparametric functions and isoparametric hypersurfaces, mainly in two directions. (1) Isoparametric functions on Riemannian manifolds, including exotic spheres. The existences and…

We prove some sharp isoperimetric type inequalities for domains with smooth boundary on Riemannian manifolds. For example, using generalized convexity, we show that among all domains with a lower bound $l$ for the cut distance and Ricci…

It was recently shown by R. Souam and E. Toubiana that the (non constantly curved) Berger spheres do not contain totally umbilic surfaces. Nevertheless in this article we show, by perturbative arguments, that all analytic metrics…

The large-scale geometry of hyperbolic metric spaces exhibits many distinctive features, such as the stability of quasi-geodesics (the Morse Lemma), the visibility property, and the homeomorphism between visual boundaries induced by a…

We deal with the restriction phenomenon for the Fourier transform. We prove that each of the restriction conjectures for the sphere, the paraboloid, the elliptic hyperboloid in $\mathbb{R}^n$ implies that for the cone in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$.…

Channel linear Weingarten surfaces in space forms are investigated in a Lie sphere geometric setting, which allows for a uniform treatment of different ambient geometries. We show that any channel linear Weingarten surface in a space form…

An affine hypersurface M is said to admit a pointwise symmetry, if there exists a subgroup G of Aut(T_p M) for all p in M, which preserves (pointwise) the affine metric h, the difference tensor K and the affine shape operator S. Here, we…

Manifold submetries of the round sphere are a class of partitions of the round sphere that generalizes both singular Riemannian foliations, and the orbit decompositions by the orthogonal representations of compact groups. We exhibit a…

We investigate spacetimes whose light cones could be anisotropic. We prove the equivalence of the structures: (a) Lorentz-Finsler manifold for which the mean Cartan torsion vanishes, (b) Lorentz-Finsler manifold for which the indicatrix…
