We improve the estimates for the Ekeland--Hofer--Zehnder capacity of convex bodies by Gluskin and Ostrover. In the course of our argument we show that a closed characteristic of minimal action on the boundary of a centrally symmetric convex…
We discuss generalizations of the well-known theorem of Hilbert that there is no complete isometric immersion of the hyperbolic plane into Euclidean 3-space. We show that this problem is expressed very naturally as the question of the…
In this work we bring together tools and ideology from two different fields, Symplectic Geometry and Asymptotic Geometric Analysis, to arrive at some new results. Our main result is a dimension-independent bound for the symplectic capacity…
The hexagon is the least-perimeter tile in the Euclidean plane for any given area. On hyperbolic surfaces, this "isoperimetric" problem differs for every given area, as solutions do not scale. Cox conjectured that a regular $k$-gonal tile…
Through highly non-constructive methods, works by Bestvina, Culler, Feighn, Morgan, Paulin, Rips, Shalen, and Thurston show that if a finitely presented group does not split over a virtually solvable subgroup, then the space of its discrete…
We prove an inequality bounding the renormalized area of a complete minimal surface in hyperbolic space in terms of the conformal length of its ideal boundary.
Given $N$ geodesic caps on the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^d$, and whose total normalized surface area sums to one, what is the maximal surface area their union can cover? In this work, we provide an asymptotically sharp upper bound for an…
We study the problem of discrete geometric packing. Here, given weighted regions (say in the plane) and points (with capacities), one has to pick a maximum weight subset of the regions such that no point is covered more than its capacity.…
A convex body $R$ in the hyperbolic plane is reduced if any convex body $K\subset R$ has a smaller minimal width than $R$. We answer a few of Lassak's questions about ordinary reduced polygons regarding its perimeter, diameter and…
We study the topology of (properly) immersed complete minimal surfaces $P^2$ in Hyperbolic and Euclidean spaces which have finite total extrinsic curvature, using some isoperimetric inequalities satisfied by the extrinsic balls in these…
This (quasi-)survey addresses the quasi-isometry classification of locally compact groups, with an emphasis on amenable hyperbolic locally compact groups. This encompasses the problem of quasi-isometry classification of homogeneous…
We study the motion of a particle in the hyperbolic plane (embedded in Minkowski space), under the action of a potential that depends only on one variable. This problem is the analogous to the spherical pendulum in a unidirectional force…
We define a capacity which measures the size of Weinstein tubular neighbourhoods of Lagrangian submanifolds. In symplectic vector spaces this leads to bounds on the codisc radius for any closed Lagrangian submanifold in terms of Viterbo's…
This paper is a continuation of our paper about boundary rigidity and filling minimality of metrics close to flat ones. We show that compact regions close to a hyperbolic one are boundary distance rigid and strict minimal fillings. We also…
We investigate the existence of a maximiser among open, bounded, convex sets in $\R^d,\,d\ge 3$ for the product of torsional rigidity and Newtonian capacity (or logarithmic capacity if $d=2$), with constraints involving Lebesgue measure or…
For a transitive sectional-hypebolic set $\Lambda$ with positive volume on a $d$-dimensional manifold $M$($d\ge3$), we show that $\Lambda=M$ and $\Lambda$ is a uniformly hyperbolic set without singularities
We investigate extremality properties of shape functionals which are products of Newtonian capacity $\cp(\overline{\Om})$, and powers of the torsional rigidity $T(\Om)$, for an open set $\Om\subset \R^d$ with compact closure…
This paper addresses the so-called conformal capacities in $\mathbb R^n$, $n\ge 3$, through comparing three existing definitions (due to Betsakos, Colesanti-Cuoghi, Anderson-Vamananmurthy-Fuglede respectively) and studying their associated…
An infinite cluster $\mathbf E$ in $\mathbb R^d$ is a sequence of disjoint measurable sets $E_k\subset \mathbb R^d$, $k\in \mathbb N$, called regions of the cluster. Given the volumes $a_k\ge 0$ of the regions $E_k$, a natural question is…
A hyperbolic set on a compact manifold M, satisfies the property: given two of your any points p and q, such that for all positive \epsilon>0, there is a trajectory in the hyperbolic set from a point \epsilon-close to p to a point…
