Finite topological spaces became much more essential in topology, with the development of computer science. The task of this paper is to study and investigate some properties of such spaces with the existence of an ordered relation between…

Let $(X,d)$ be an $n$-dimensional Alexandrov space whose Hausdorff measure $\mathcal{H}^n$ satisfies a condition giving the metric measure space $(X,d,\mathcal{H}^n)$ a notion of having nonnegative Ricci curvature. We examine the influence…

In this paper, we establish a Bochner type formula on Alexandrov spaces with Ricci curvature bounded below. Yau's gradient estimate for harmonic functions is also obtained on Alexandrov spaces.

We prove uniform convergence of metrics $g_k$ on a closed surface with bounded integral curvature (measure) in the sense of A.D. Alexandrov, under the assumption that the curvature measures $\mathbb{K}_{g_k}=\mu^1_k-\mu^2_k$, where…

For a path in a compact finite dimensional Alexandrov space $X$ with curv $\ge \kappa$, the two basic geometric invariants are the length and the turning angle (which measures the closeness from being a geodesic). We show that the sum of…

In this paper, the results of Mei, Wang, Weng and Xia [Math. Z., 2025, MR4911815] on capillary convex bodies are extended to the anisotropic setting. We develop a theory for anisotropic capillary convex bodies in the half-space and…

We prove a collection of reverse Alexandrov-Fenchel type inequalities in anisotropic, Euclidean, spherical, and hyperbolic settings. The unifying principle is that the relevant deficit is controlled by curvature radius data, or equivalently…

The purpose of this article is to introduce projective geometry over composition algebras : the equivalent of projective spaces and Grassmannians over them are defined. It will follow from this definition that the projective spaces are in…

I apply the algebraic framework introduced in arXiv:1101.4542v3[math.MG] to Minkowski (pseudo-Euclidean) spaces in 2, 3, and 4 dimensions. The exposition follows the template established in arXiv:1307.2917[math.MG] for Euclidean spaces. The…

A stratified space is a topological space equipped with a \emph{stratification}, which is a decomposition or partition of the topological space satisfying certain extra conditions. More recently, the notion of poset-stratified space, i.e.,…
