We first characterize the image of the compactly supported smooth even functions under the q-Weinstein transform as a subspace of the Schwartz space. We then describe the space of smooth $L_{\alpha, q, a}^{2}$-functions whose q-Weinstein…

We prove a smooth compactness theorem for the space of embedded self-shrinkers in $\RR^3$. Since self-shrinkers model singularities in mean curvature flow, this theorem can be thought of as a compactness result for the space of all…

In discrete differential geometry, it is widely believed that the discrete Gaussian curvature of a polyhedral vertex star equals the algebraic area of its Gauss image. However, no complete proof has yet been described. We present an…

We introduce a new perspective on the classical Nirenberg problem of understanding the possible Gauss curvatures of metrics on $S^{2}$ conformal to the round metric. A key tool is to employ the smooth Cheeger-Gromov compactness theorem to…
