We establish a lower bound on the total mass of the time slices of (n + 1)-dimensional asymptotically flat standard static spacetimes under the timelike convergence condition. The inequality can be viewed equivalently as a Minkowski-type…

We study geometric characterizations of the Poincar\'{e} inequality in doubling metric measure spaces in terms of properties of separating sets. Given a couple of points and a set separating them, such properties are formulated in terms of…

A carpet is a metric space homeomorphic to the Sierpinski carpet. We characterize, within a certain class of examples, non-self-similar carpets supporting curve families of nontrivial modulus and supporting Poincar\'e inequalities. Our…

Let $D$ be a digraph. We define the minimum semi-degree of $D$ as $\delta^{0}(D) := \min \{\delta^{+}(D), \delta^{-}(D)\}$. Let $k$ be a positive integer, and let $S = \{s\}$ and $T = \{t_{1}, \dots ,t_{k}\}$ be any two disjoint subsets of…

We introduce Poincar\'e type inequalities based on rearrangement invariant spaces in the setting of metric measure spaces and analyze when they imply the doubling condition on the underline measure.

Let $(\mathcal{X}, \rho, \mu)$ be a metric measure space of homogeneous type which supports a certain Poincar\'e inequality. Denote by the symbol $\mathcal{C}_{\mathrm{c}}^\ast(\mathcal{X})$ the space of all continuous functions $f$ with…

Using a method of Korobenko, Maldonado and Rios we show a new characterization of doubling metric-measure spaces supporting Poincar\'e inequalities without assuming a priori that the measure is doubling.

The isoperimetric inequality for a smooth compact Riemannian manifold $A$ provides a positive ${\bf c}(A)$, so that for any $k+1$ dimensional integral current $S_0$ in $A$ there exists an integral current $ S$ in $A$ with $\partial…

This article obtains purely metric counterparts of cornerstone results in the theory of embedding graphs into normed spaces. Our first main result is a metric analogue of Matou\v{s}ek's extrapolation relating the Poincar\'e constants…

Matrix pencils, or pairs of matrices, may be used in a variety of applications. In particular, a pair of matrices (E,A) may be interpreted as the differential equation E x' + A x = 0. Such an equation is invariant by changes of variables,…

We examine the validity of the Poincar\'e inequality for degenerate, second-order, elliptic operators $H$ in divergence form on $L_2(\Ri^{n}\times\Ri^{m})$. We assume the coefficients are real symmetric and $a_1H_\delta\geq H\geq…

Let X be a smooth curve of genus g. When pi>=3g and d>=pi-2g+1 we show the existence of a double covering gamma:C-->X where C a smooth curve of genus pi with a base-point-free pencil of degree d which is not the pull-back of a pencil on X.

We investigate discrete Poincar\'e inequalities on piecewise polynomial subspaces of the Sobolev spaces H(curl) and H(div) in three space dimensions. We characterize the dependence of the constants on the continuous-level constants, the…

In this paper we construct a large family of examples of subsets of Euclidean space that support a 1-Poincar\'e inequality yet have empty interior. These examples are formed from an iterative process that involves removing well-behaved…

We investigate the validity, as well as the failure, of Sobolev-type inequalities on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds under suitable bounds on the sectional and the Ricci curvatures. We prove that if the sectional curvatures are bounded from above…

We give a sufficient condition for H\"older continuity at a boundary point for quasiminima of double-phase functionals of $p,q$-Laplace type, in the setting of metric measure spaces equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a…

The Massively Parallel Computation (MPC) model serves as a common abstraction of many modern large-scale data processing frameworks, and has been receiving increasingly more attention over the past few years, especially in the context of…

Let $ X $ be a closed, oriented Riemannian manifold. Denote by $ (M = X \times I, \partial M = X \times \lbrace 0 \rbrace \cup X \times \lbrace 1 \rbrace, g) $ a compact cylinder with smooth boundary, $ \dim M \geqslant 3 $. In this…

We prove that a Sobolev map from a Riemannian manifold into a complete metric space pushes forward almost every compactly supported integral current to an Ambrosio--Kirchheim integral current in the metric target, where "almost every" is…

We give several characterizations of parabolic (quasisuper)- minimizers in a metric measure space equipped with a doubling measure and supporting a Poincar\'e inequality. We also prove a version of comparison principle for super- and…
