Given a continuous viscosity solution of a Dirichlet-type Hamilton-Jacobi equation, we show that the distance function to the conjugate locus which is associated to this problem is locally semiconcave on its domain. It allows us to provide…

We study the boundary and lens rigidity problems on domains without assuming the convexity of the boundary. We show that such rigidities hold when the domain is a simply connected compact Riemannian surface without conjugate points. For the…

Let $c$ be a piecewise smooth wave speed on $\mathbb R^n$, unknown inside a domain $\Omega$. We are given the solution operator for the scalar wave equation $(\partial_t^2-c^2\Delta)u=0$, but only outside $\Omega$ and only for initial data…

In this paper we construct quasiconformal embeddings from Y-pieces that contain a short boundary geodesic into degenerate ones. These results are used in a companion paper to study the Jacobian tori of Riemann surfaces that contain small…

We construct explicitly the constants of motion for geodesics in the $5$-dimensional Sasaki-Einstein spaces $Y^{p,q}$. To carry out this task we use the knowledge of the complete set of Killing vectors and Killing-Yano tensors on these…

Geodesics become an essential element of the geometry of a semi-Riemannian manifold. In fact, their differences and similarities with the (positive definite) Riemannian case, constitute the first step to understand semi-Riemannian Geometry.…
