In this paper we continue an earlier study of ends non-compact manifolds. The over-arching goal is to investigate and obtain generalizations of Siebenmann's famous collaring theorem that may be applied to manifolds having non-stable…
We prove that a set of finite perimeter is indecomposable if and only if it is, up to a choice of suitable representative, connected in the 1-fine topology. This gives a topological characterization of indecomposability which is new even in…
We show that directed minimal cones in (n+1)-dimensional Euclidean space which have at most one singularity are - besides the trivial cases: empty set, whole space - half spaces. Using blow-up techniques, this result can be used to get…
A short introduction is given on the functional renormalization group method, putting emphasis on its nonperturbative aspects. The method enables to find nontrivial fixed points in quantum field theoretic models which make them free from…
In the setting of subFinsler Carnot groups, we consider curves that satisfy the normal equation coming from the Pontryagin Maximum Principle. We show that, unless it is constant, each such a curve leaves every compact set, quantitatively.…
A finitely generated group is lacunary hyperbolic if one of its asymptotic cones is an $\mathbb{R}$-tree. In this article we give a necessary and sufficient condition on lacunary hyperbolic groups in order to be stable under free product by…
An interesting result by T. Kato and A. Pazy says that a contractive semigroup (T(t)) on a uniformly convex space X is holomorphic iff limsup_{t \downarrow 0} ||T(t)-Id|| < 2. We study extensions of this result which are valid on arbitrary…
We study the Sard problem for the endpoint map in some well-known classes of Carnot groups. Our first main result deals with step 2 Carnot groups, where we provide lower bounds (depending only on the algebra of the group) on the codimension…
In this paper we start a detailed study of a new notion of rectifiability in Carnot groups: we say that a Radon measure is $\mathscr{P}_h$-rectifiable, for $h\in\mathbb N$, if it has positive $h$-lower density and finite $h$-upper density…
We study the global behavior of (weakly) stable constant mean curvature hypersurfaces in general Riemannian manifolds. By using harmonic function theory, we prove some one-end theorems which are new even for constant mean curvature…
It is, by now, classical that lattices in higher rank semisimple groups have various rigidity properties. In this work, we add another such rigidity property to the list: uniform stability with respect to the family of unitary operators on…
We study left-invariant distances on Lie groups for which there exists a one-parameter family of homothetic automorphisms. The main examples are Carnot groups, in particular the Heisenberg group with the standard dilations. We are…
In this paper we extend the notion of rearrangement of nonnegative functions to the setting of Carnot groups. We define rearrangement with respect to a given family of anisotropic balls B_r or equivalently with respect to a gauge |x|, and…
We show that every isoperimetric set in R^N with density is bounded if the density is continuous and bounded by above and below. This improves the previously known boundedness results, which basically needed a Lipschitz assumption; on the…
For Cartan geometries admitting automorphisms with isotropies satisfying a particular, loosely dynamical property on their model geometries, we demonstrate the existence of an open subset of the geometry with trivial holonomy. This…
In this article we extend the notion of $L^p$-measure subgroups couplings, a quantitative asymmetric version of measure equivalence that was introduced by Delabie, Koivisto, Le Ma\^itre and Tessera for finitely generated groups, to the…
We characterize Carnot groups admitting a 1-quasiconformal metric inversion as the Lie groups of Heisenberg type whose Lie algebras satisfy the $J^2$-condition, thus characterizing a special case of inversion invariant bi-Lipschitz…
In a previous paper we developed a regularity and compactness theory in Euclidean ambient spaces for codimension 1 weakly stable CMC integral varifolds satisfying two (necessary) structural conditions. Here we generalize this theory to the…
We show that the Eisenbud-Goto conjecture holds for (homogeneous) seminormal simplicial affine semigroup rings. Moreover, we prove an upper bound for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity in terms of the dimension, which is similar as in the…
We formalize the notion of limit of an inverse system of metric spaces with $1$-Lipschitz projections having unbounded fibers. The purpose is to use sub-Riemannian groups for metrizing the space of signatures of rectifiable paths in…
