We show that a geodesic metric space is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov if and only if intersections of balls have bounded eccentricity. In particular, $\R$-trees are characterized among geodesic metric spaces by the property that the…

In this paper, we prove some exact estimates for the discrete Neumann energy of a ball and a circular ring in Euclidean space for points located on circles. The proofs are based on dissymmetrization and analysis of the asymptotic behavior…

We~prove uniqueness of the Moebius invariant semi-inner product on hyperbolic-harmonic functions on the unit ball of the real n-space, i.e. on functions annihilated by the hyperbolic Laplacian on the ball.

The orthogonality of Hilbert spaces whose elements can be represented as simple and double layer potentials is determined. Conditions of well-posed solvability of integral equations for the sum of simple and double layer potentials…

Periodic geodesics on the modular surface correspond to periodic orbits of the geodesic flow in its unit tangent bundle $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z})\backslash\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{R})$. The complement of any finite number of orbits is a…

We prove a variant of Rauch's hot spots conjecture for hyperbolic planar domains with small Neumann or mixed Dirichlet-Neumann eigenvalues. We conclude, for instance, that on bounded convex domains in the hyperbolic plane with sufficiently…

In this note we link symplectic and convex geometry by relating two seemingly different open conjectures: a symplectic isoperimetric-type inequality for convex domains, and Mahler's conjecture on the volume product of centrally symmetric…

We show that large classes of non-arithmetic hyperbolic $n$-manifolds, including the hybrids introduced by Gromov and Piatetski-Shapiro and many of their generalizations, have only finitely many finite-volume immersed totally geodesic…

The main goal of this paper is to reveal the geometric meaning of the maximal number of exceptional values of Gauss maps for several classes of immersed surfaces in space forms, for example, complete minimal surfaces in the Euclidean…

Using symmetrization techniques, we show that, for every $N \geq 2$, any second eigenfunction of the fractional Laplacian in the $N$-dimensional unit ball with homogeneous Dirichlet conditions is nonradial, and hence its nodal set is an…

We prove the conjecture that a monopole in three-dimensional anti-de Sitter space can be completely determined by its ``holographic'' image on the conformal boundary two-sphere.

We prove the convex combination theorem for hyperbolic n-manifolds. Applications are given both in high dimensions and in 3 dimensions. One consequence is that given two geometrically finite subgroups of a discrete group of isometries of…

The second eigenvalue of the Robin Laplacian is shown to be maximal for the disk among simply-connected planar domains of fixed area when the Robin parameter is scaled by perimeter in the form $\alpha/L(\Omega)$, and $\alpha$ lies between…

We give an upper bound for the number of compact essential orientable non-isotopic surfaces, with Euler characteristic at least some constant $\chi$, properly embedded in a finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$, closed or cusped. This…

In this article, we use the second intrinsic volume to define a metric on the space of homothetic classes of Gaussian bounded convex bodies in a separable real Hilbert space. Using kernels of hyperbolic type, we can deduce that this space…

Geodesic balls in a simply connected space forms $\mathbb{S}^n$, $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ or $\mathbb{H}^{n}$ are distinguished manifolds for comparison in bounded Riemannian geometry. In this paper we show that they have the maximum possible…

For a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Sigma$ in a Riemannian surface $M$ satisfying certain curvature condition, we prove that $$\mu_{3-\beta_1} \leq \lambda_{1},$$ where $\mu_k$ ($\lambda_k$ resp.) is the $k$-th Neumann (Dirichlet resp.)…
