How to distribute a set of points uniformly on a spherical surface is a very old problem that still lacks a definite answer. In this work, we introduce a physical measure of uniformity based on the distribution of distances between points,…

We prove the scalar curvature rigidity for $L^\infty$ metrics on $\mathbb S^n\backslash\Sigma$, where $\mathbb S^n$ is the $n$-dimensional sphere with $n\geq 3$ and $\Sigma$ is a closed subset of $\mathbb S^n$ of codimension at least…

In this article, we investigate the range characterization for the spherical mean transform (SMT) of functions supported in the unit ball. In earlier works, in the case of odd dimensions, a set of differential conditions was obtained,…

We consider the mean curvature rigidity problem of an equatorial zone on a sphere which is symmetric about the equator with width $2w$. There are two different notions on rigidity, i.e. strong rigidity and local rigidity. We prove that for…

Many classical geometric inequalities on functionals of convex bodies depend on the dimension of the ambient space. We show that this dimension dependence may often be replaced (totally or partially) by different symmetry measures of the…

I use local differential geometric techniques to prove that the algebraic cycles in certain extremal homology classes in Hermitian symmetric spaces are either rigid (i.e., deformable only by ambient motions) or quasi-rigid (roughly…

This paper determines the sharp asymptotic order of the following reverse H\"older inequality for spherical harmonics $Y_n$ of degree $n$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d-1}$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ as $n\to \infty$:…

Let $(X,d)$ be a finite ultrametric space. In 1961 E.C. Gomory and T.C. Hu proved the inequality $|Sp(X)|\leqslant |X|$ where $Sp(X)=\{d(x,y)\colon x,y \in X\}$. Using weighted Hamiltonian cycles and weighted Hamiltonian paths we give new…

The purpose of this review it to present a renewed perspective of the problem of self-gravitating elastic bodies under spherical symmetry. It is also a companion to the papers [Phys. Rev. D105, 044025 (2022)], [Phys. Rev. D106, L041502…

The notion of lambda-symmetries, originally introduced by C. Muriel and J.L. Romero, is extended to the case of systems of first-order ODE's (and of dynamical systems in particular). It is shown that the existence of a symmetry of this type…

In this paper we consider the effect of symmetry on the rigidity of bar-joint frameworks, spherical frameworks and point-hyperplane frameworks in $\mathbb{R}^d$. In particular we show that, under forced or incidental symmetry, infinitesimal…

P\'al's isominwidth theorem states that for a fixed minimal width, the regular triangle has minimal area. A spherical version of this theorem was proven by Bezdek and Blekherman, if the minimal width is at most $\tfrac \pi 2$. If the width…

The linearizability of differential equations was first considered by Lie for scalar second order semi-linear ordinary differential equations. Since then there has been considerable work done on the algebraic classification of linearizable…

Certain triangle inequalities involving the circumradius, inradius, and side lengths of a triangle are generalized to spherical and hyperbolic geometry. Examples include strengthenings of Euler's inequality, $R\geq2r$. An extension of…

For $n\geq 2$, $p\in(1,n)$, the "best $p$-Sobolev inequality" on an open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ is identified with a family $\Phi_\Omega$ of variational problems with critical volume and trace constraints. When $\Omega$ is bounded…

In this work, we study several inequalities related to a Dirichlet problem on Riemannian manifolds whose Ricci curvature is bounded from below. First, we establish inequalities involving the torsional rigidity and discuss rigidity results…

A discrete conformality for polyhedral metrics on surfaces is introduced in this paper which generalizes earlier work on the subject. It is shown that each polyhedral metric on a surface is discrete conformal to a constant curvature…

We present upper and lower bounds for symmetrized topological complexity $TC^\Sigma(X)$ in the sense of Basabe-Gonz\'alez-Rudyak-Tamaki. The upper bound comes from equivariant obstruction theory, and the lower bounds from the cohomology of…

The formal rigidity of the Witt and Virasoro algebras was first established by the author in [4]. The proof was based on some earlier results of the author and Goncharowa, and was not presented there. In this paper we give an elementary…

A spherical quadrilateral is a bordered surface homeomorphic to a closed disk, with four distinguished boundary points called corners, equipped with a Riemannian metric of constant curvature 1, except at the corners, and such that the…
