In his 1990 paper, Jones proved the following: given $E \subseteq \mathbb{R}^2$, there exists a curve $\Gamma$ such that $E \subseteq \Gamma$ and \[ \mathscr{H}^1(\Gamma) \sim \text{diam}\, E + \sum_{Q} \beta_{E}(3Q)^2\ell(Q).\] Here,…

We are interested in quantitative rectifiability results for subsets of infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$. We prove a version of Azzam and Schul's $d$-dimensional Analyst's Travelling Salesman Theorem in this setting by showing for any…
In his 1990 Inventiones paper, P. Jones characterized subsets of rectifiable curves in the plane via a multiscale sum of $\beta$-numbers. These $\beta$-numbers are geometric quantities measuring how far a given set deviates from a best…
Given a metric space $X$, an Analyst's Traveling Salesman Theorem for $X$ gives a quantitative relationship between the length of a shortest curve containing any subset $E\subseteq X$ and a multi-scale sum measuring the ``flatness'' of $E$.…
This paper gives a concise proof of the Jordan curve theorem on discrete surfaces. We also embed the discrete surface in the 2D plane to prove the original version of the Jordan curve theorem. This paper is a simple version of L. Chen, Note…

In this paper we study the Plateau problem for disk-type surfaces contained in conic regions of $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ and with prescribed mean curvature $H$. Assuming a suitable growth condition on $H$, we prove existence of a least energy…
The ``analyst's traveling salesman theorem'' of geometric measure theory characterizes those subsets of Euclidean space that are contained in curves of finite length. This result, proven for the plane by Jones (1990) and extended to…
Let $\mathbb{G}$ be any Carnot group. We prove that, if a subset of $\mathbb{G}$ is contained in a rectifiable curve, then it satisfies Peter Jones' geometric lemma with some natural modifications. We thus prove one direction of the…
Let $f$ be a meromorphic function with simply connected domain $G\subset\mathbb{C}$, and let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{C}$ be a smooth Jordan curve. We call a component of $f^{-1}(\Gamma)$ in $G$ a $\Gamma$-$pseudo$-$lemniscate$ of $f$. In this…
Symmetry postulates play a crucial role in various approaches to reconstruct quantum theory from a few basic principles. Discrete and continuous symmetries are under consideration. The continuous case better matches the physical needs for…
The rigidity of the positive mass theorem states that the only complete asymptotically flat manifold of nonnegative scalar curvature and zero mass is Euclidean space. We prove a corresponding stability theorem for spaces that can be…
According to a general definition of discrete curves, surfaces, and manifolds. This paper focuses on the Jordan curve theorem in 2D discrete spaces. The Jordan curve theorem says that a (simply) closed curve separates a simply connected…
We prove that a Jordan $\calc^1$-curve in the plane contains any non-flat triangle up to translation and homothety with positive ratio. This is false if the curve is not $C^1$. The proof uses a bit configuration spaces, differential and…
