This is a continuation of the joint paper with the same title by A.Belenkiy and Yu.Burago. It is proved here that two homeomorphic closed Alexandrov surfaces (of bounded integral curvature) are bi-Lipschitz with a constant depending only on…

Given an arbitrary complex-valued infinite matrix A and a positive integer n we introduce a naturally associated polynomial basis B_A of C[x0...xn]. We discuss some properties of the locus of common zeros of all polynomials in B_A having a…

Let $x:M^m\to \bar M$, with $m\geq 3$, be an isometric immersion of a complete noncompact manifold $M$ in a complete simply-connected manifold $\bar M$ with sectional curvature satisfying $-c^2\leq K_{\bar M}\leq 0$, for some constant $c$.…

We consider the problem of determining a polyhedral conductivity inclusion embedded in a homogeneous isotropic medium from boundary measurements. We prove global Lipschitz stability for the polyhedral inclusion from the local…

We prove that all ($\alpha$-$\beta$)-shifts with $0\le \alpha<1$ and $\beta>2$ are saturated, that is, for any invariant measure, the topological entropy of the set of generic points coincides with the metric entropy.

We give a metric characterisation of when the Lipschitz-free space over a separable ultrametric space is a dual Banach space. In the case where the Lipschitz-free space has a predual, we show that this predual is M-embedded if and only if…

We develop a notion of entropy, using hyperbolic time, for laminations by hyperbolic Riemann surfaces. When the lamination is compact and transversally smooth, we show that the entropy is finite and the Poincare metric on leaves is…

This work focuses on important step in quantitative topology: given homotopic mappings from $S^m$ to $S^n$ of Lipschitz constant $L$, build the (asymptotically) simplest homotopy between them (meaning having the least Lipschitz constant).…

For bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms of a compact manifold it is known that topological entropy is always finite. For compact manifolds of dimension two or greater, we show that in the closure of the space of bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms, with…

Let $M$ be a smooth Riemannian manifold which is the union of a compact part and a finite number of Euclidean ends, $\RR^n \setminus B(0,R)$ for some $R > 0$, each of which carries the standard metric. Our main result is that the Riesz…

We propose a new strong Riemannian metric on the manifold of (parametrized) embedded curves of regularity $H^s$, $s\in(3/2,2)$. We highlight its close relationship to the (generalized) tangent-point energies and employ it to show that this…

We prove Zimmer's conjecture for $C^2$ actions by finite-index subgroups of $\mathrm{SL}(m,\mathbb{Z})$ provided $m>3$. The method utilizes many ingredients from our earlier proof of the conjecture for actions by cocompact lattices in…

The article considers the Lorentz space $L_{p,\tau}(\mathbb{T}^{m})$, $2\pi$ of periodic functions of many variables and spaces with mixed logarithmic smoothness. Equivalent norms of a space with mixed logarithmic smoothness are found and…

Certain semi-Riemannian metrics can be decomposed into a Riemannian part and an isochronal part. The properties of such metrics are particularly easy to visualize in a coordinate-free way, using isometric embedding. We present such an…

We study the ambient Lipschitz geometry of semialgebraic surfaces. It was discovered in \cite{BBG} that ambient Lipschitz Geometry is different from the outer Lipschtz geometry. We show that two surface germs in $\mathbb{R}^3$, Lipschitz…

Motivated by applications for simulating quantum many body functions, we propose a new universal ansatz for approximating anti-symmetric functions. The main advantage of this ansatz over previous alternatives is that it is bi-Lipschitz with…

We show that if $y=(y_n)_{n\ge 1}$ is a bounded sequence with zero average along every infinite arithmetic progression then for every $N\ge 2$ there exist (unilateral or bilateral) subshifts $\Sigma$ over $N$ symbols, with entropy…

We present the proof of Berger and Turaev of Herman's positive entropy conjecture. In every neighbourhood of identity in the set of smooth symplectic diffeomorphisms of the 2-dimensional disc, there exists a diffeomorphism with positive…

We prove that the existence of a positively defined, invariant Einstein metric $m$ on a connected homogeneous space $G/H$ of a compact Lie group $G$ is the consequence of non-contractibility of some compact set $C=X_{G,H}^{\Sigma}$ (B\"ohm…

We provide another approach to Friedland's result that the topological entropy $h$ of a symmetric nearest-neighbor subshift is computable. Instead of the previous algebraic technique, our approach is mostly combinatorial and involves only…
