We prove an isoperimetric inequality for probability measures $\mu$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with density proportional to $\exp(-\phi(\lambda | x|))$, where $|x|$ is the euclidean norm on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and $\phi$ is a non-decreasing convex…

We consider the sub-Riemannian $3$-sphere $(\mathbb{S}^3,g_h)$ obtained by restriction of the Riemannian metric of constant curvature $1$ to the planar distribution orthogonal to the vertical Hopf vector field. It is known that…

We establish a structure theorem for minimizing sequences for the isoperimetric problem on noncompact $\mathsf{RCD}(K,N)$ spaces $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathcal{H}^N)$. Under the sole (necessary) assumption that the measure of unit balls is…

We fully characterize the set of finite shapes with minimal perimeter on hyperbolic lattices given by regular tilings of the hyperbolic plane whose tiles are regular $p$-gons meeting at vertices of degree $q$, with $1/p+1/q<\frac{1}{2}$. In…

We study the isoperimetric structure of Riemannian manifolds that are asymptotic to cones with non-negative Ricci curvature. Specifically, we generalize to this setting the seminal results of G. Huisken and S.-T. Yau on the existence of a…

In the Heisenberg group H^n, we prove quantitative isoperimetric inequalities for Pansu's spheres, that are known to be isoperimetric under various assumptions. The inequalities are shown for suitably restricted classes of competing sets…

The isoperimetric problem is one of the oldest in geometry and it consists of finding a surface of minimum area that encloses a given volume $V$. It is particularly important in physics because of its strong relation with stability, and…

Stochastic incompleteness of a Riemannian manifold $M$ amounts to the nonconservation of probability for the heat semigroup on $M$. We show that this property is equivalent to the existence of nonnegative, nontrivial, bounded (sub)solutions…

We prove topological regularity results for isoperimetric sets in PI spaces having a suitable deformation property, which prescribes a control on the increment of the perimeter of sets under perturbations with balls. More precisely, we…

In this paper, the isoperimetric problem in Randers planes, $(\mathbb{R}^2,F=\alpha +\beta)$, which are slight deformation of the Euclidean plane $(\mathbb{R}^2,\alpha)$ by suitable one forms $\beta$, have been studied. We prove that the…

In a previous work, we studied isoparametric functions on Riemannian manifolds, especially on exotic spheres. One result there says that, in the family of isoparametric hypersurfaces of a closed Riemannian manifold, there exist at least one…

In this paper, we study a new class of Finsler metrics, F=\alpha\phi(b^2,s), s:=\beta/\alpha, defined by a Riemannian metric \alpha and 1-form \beta. It is called general (\alpha, \beta) metric. In this paper, we assume \phi be coefficient…

The present work is devoted to investigate anisotropic conformal transformation of conic pseudo-Finsler surfaces $(M,F)$, that is, $ F(x,y)\longmapsto \overline{F}(x,y)=e^{\phi(x,y)}F(x,y)$, where the function $\phi(x,y)$ depends on both…
