We prove existence of isoperimetric regions for every volume in non-compact Riemannian $n$-manifolds $(M,g)$, $n\geq 2$, having Ricci curvature $Ric_g\geq (n-1) k_0 g$ and being locally asymptotic to the simply connected space form of…

We show that if $\mathcal{E}$ is a subset of the $d$-dimensional vector space over a finite field $\mathbbm{F}_q$ ($d \geq 3$) of cardinality $|\mathcal{E}| \geq (d-1)q^{d - 1}$, then the set of volumes of $d$-dimensional parallelepipeds…

We provide an isoperimetric comparison theorem for small volumes in an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M^n,g)$ with strong bounded geometry, as in Definition $2.3$, involving the scalar curvature function. Namely in strong bounded…

We show that for g > 2k+2 the k-rational homotopy type of the moduli space M_{g,n} of algebraic curves of genus g with n punctures is independent of g, and the space M_{g,n} is k-formal. This implies the existence of a limiting rational…

Given a pair of metric tensors $g_1 \ge g_0$ on a Riemannian manifold, $M$, it is well known that $\operatorname{Vol}_1(M) \ge \operatorname{Vol}_0(M)$. Furthermore one has rigidity: the volumes are equal if and only if the metric tensors…

For $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds $M$ with Ricci curvature bounded below by $-(n-1)$, the volume entropy is bounded above by $n-1$. If $M$ is compact, it is known that the equality holds if and only if $M$ is hyperbolic. We extend…
