Any germ of a complex analytic space is equipped with two natural metrics: the {\it outer metric} induced by the hermitian metric of the ambient space and the {\it inner metric}, which is the associated riemannian metric on the germ. We…
We classify semi-algebraic surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with isolated singularities up to bi-Lipschitz homeomorphisms with respect to the inner distance. In particular, we obtain complete classifications for the Nash surfaces and the complex…
We investigate connections between Lipschitz geometry of real algebraic varieties and properties of their arc spaces. For this purpose we develop motivic integration in the real algebraic set-up. We construct a motivic measure on the space…
A germ of normal complex analytical surface is called a Hirzebruch-Jung singularity if it is analytically isomorphic to the germ at the 0-dimensional orbit of an affine toric surface. Two such germs are known to be isomorphic if and only if…
The main result of the paper states that a connected complex affine algebraic curve is Lipschitz normally embedded (shortened to LNE afterwards) in $\mathbb{C}^n$ if and only if its germ at any singular point is a finite union of…
We investigate slicings of combinatorial manifolds as properly embedded co-dimension 1 submanifolds. A focus is given to dimension 3 where slicings are normal surfaces. In the case of 2-neighborly 3-manifolds and quadrangulated slicings, a…
We present a series of examples of pairs of singular semialgebraic surfaces (real semialgebraic sets of dimension two) in ${\mathbb R}^3$ and ${\mathbb R}^4$ which are bi-Lipschitz equivalent with respect to the outer metric, ambient…
We determine the local geometric structure of two-dimensional metric spaces with curvature bounded above as the union of finitely many properly embedded/branched immersed Lipschitz disks. As a result, we obtain a graph structure of the…
We prove that for any $d>0$ there exists an embedding of the Riemann sphere $\mathbb P^1$ in a smooth complex surface, with self-intersection $d$, such that the germ of this embedding cannot be extended to an embedding in an algebraic…
The aim of this paper is to study the Lipschitz normally embedded property for a set and its medial axis. We consider if and when a non-LNE set implies non-LNE medial axis and converse. We present an example a of Lipschitz normally set that…
In this article, we study geometric aspects of semi-arithmetic Riemann surfaces by means of number theory and hyperbolic geometry. First, we show the existence of infinitely many semi-arithmetic Riemann surfaces of various shapes and prove…
Let M be a real analytic manifold modeled on a locally convex space and K be a non-empty compact subset of M. We show that if an open neighborhood of K in M admits a complexification which is a regular topological space, then the germ of…
Minimal surfaces in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group can be constructed by means of a Riemannian approximation scheme, as limit of Riemannian minimal surfaces. We study the regularity of Lipschitz, non-characteristic minimal surfaces…
We introduce a sectional criterion for testing if complex analytic germs $(X,0) \subset (\bC^n, 0)$ are Lipschitz non normally embedded.
It is known by a result of Mendes and Sampaio that the Lipschitz normal embedding of a subanalytic germ is fully characterized by the Lipschitz normal embedding of its link. In this note, we show that the result still holds for definable…
We compare ambient and outer Lipschitz geometry of Lipschitz normally embedded H\"older triangles in $\mathbb{R}^4$. In contrast to the case of $\mathbb{R}^3$ there are infinitely many equivalence classes. The equivalence classes are…
In this paper we explore the generalized Nash problem for arcs on a germ of smooth surface: given two prime divisors above its special point, to determine whether the arc space of one of them is included in the arc space of the other one.…
In the Teichm\"uller space of a hyperbolic surface of finite type, we construct geodesic lines for Thurston's asymmetric metric having the property that when they are traversed in the reverse direction, they are also geodesic lines (up to…
In this paper, we study Multi-$\mathcal{K}$-equivalence of multi-germs of functions on the plane, definable in a polynomially bounded o-minimal structure. We partition the germ of the plane at origin into zones of arcs in such a way that it…
We present a variety of geometrical and combinatorial tools that are used in the study of geometric structures on surfaces: volume, contact, symplectic, complex and almost complex structures. We start with a series of local rigidity results…
