This paper studies the large $p$ asymptotics of three geometric quantities on complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds: the $p-$capacity of a compact set, the first Dirichlet $p-$eigenvalue, and the Maz'ya constant, thereby offering a new…
In this article, we develop foundational theory for geometries of the space of closed $G_2$-structures in a given cohomology class as an infinite-dimensional manifold. We introduce Sobolev-type metrics, construct their Levi-Civita…
We study topological, metric and fractal properties of set of numbers $[0;1]$ with given asymptotic mean of digits in their ternary representation. We investigate connection of these numbers and numbers with a given frequency of digits.
Our aim is to give a friendly introduction for students to systolic inequalities. We will stress the relationships between the classical formulation for Riemannian metrics and more recent developments related to symplectic measurements and…

A list of open problems on holomorphic symplectic, contact and Poisson manifolds.
We investigate the interaction between systolic geometry and positive scalar curvature through spinorial methods. Our main theorem establishes an upper bound for the two-dimensional stable systole on certain high-dimensional manifolds with…
Let $G \subsetneq \mathbb{R}^n$ be a domain and let $d_1$ and $d_2$ be two metrics on $G$. We compare the geometries defined by the two metrics to each other for several pairs of metrics. The metrics we study include the distance ratio…
In the lecture notes, the author will survey the development of conformal geometry on four dimensional manifolds. The topic she chooses is one on which she has been involved in the past twenty or more years: the study of the integral…
These lectures contain an introduction to supersymmetric theories and the minimal supersymmetric standard model. Phenomenological and cosmological consequences of supersymmetry are also discussed.
We present a survey of some results and questions related to the notion of scalar curvature in the setting of symplectic supermanifolds.
We investigate the geometric and topological structure of equidistant decompositions of Riemannian manifolds.
These notes combine material from short lecture courses given in Paris, France, in July 2001 and in Srni, the Czech Republic, in January 2003. They discuss groups of symplectomorphisms of closed symplectic manifolds (M,\om) from various…
We show that suitably defined systolic ratios are globally bounded from above on the space of rotationally symmetric spindle orbifolds and that the upper bound is attained precisely at so-called Besse metrics, i.e. Riemannian orbifold…
In May 2015, a conference entitled "Groups, Geometry, and 3-manifolds" was held at the University of California, Berkeley. The organizers asked participants to suggest problems and open questions, related in some way to the subject of the…
The equivariant Gromov--Hausdorff convergence of metric spaces is studied. Where all isometry groups under consideration are compact Lie, it is shown that an upper bound on the dimension of the group guarantees that the convergence is by…
We discuss two concepts of metric and linear connections in noncommutative geometry, applying them to the case of the product of continuous and discrete (two-point) geometry.
We apply a local systolic-diastolic inequality for contact forms and odd-symplectic forms on three-manifolds to bound the magnetic length of closed curves with prescribed geodesic curvature (also known as magnetic geodesics) on an oriented…
This paper is a review on recently found connection between geodesically equivalent metrics and integrable geodesic flows. Suppose two different metrics on one manifold have the same geodesics. We show that then the geodesic flows of these…
