Let $E_d(n)$ be the maximum number of pairs that can be selected from a set of $n$ points in $R^d$ such that the midpoints of these pairs are convexly independent. We show that $E_2(n)\geq \Omega(n\sqrt{\log n})$, which answers a question…

Let $H := \begin{pmatrix} 1 & {\mathbf R} & {\mathbf R} \\ 0 & 1 &{\mathbf R} \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{pmatrix}$ denote the Heisenberg group with the usual Carnot-Carath\'eodory metric $d$. It is known (since the work of Pansu and Semmes) that the…

For special $d$-dimensional hyperbolic shells $E$ with $ d\geq 5$ we show that the number of lattice points in $E$ intersected with a $d$-dimensional cube $C_r$ of edge length $r$, can be approximated by the volume of $E\cap C_r$, as $r$…

Hilbert-Efimov theorem states that any complete surface with curvature bounded above by a negative constant can not be isometrically imbedded in $\mathbb{R}^3.$ We demonstrate that any simply-connected smooth complete surface with curvature…

We study McDuff-Salamon's Problem 46 by showing that there exist closed manifolds of dimension $\geq 6$ admitting cohomologous symplectic forms with different Gromov widths. The examples are motivated by Ruan's early example of deformation…

Let $n$ be a sufficiently large natural number and let $B$ be an origin-symmetric convex body in $R^n$ in the $\ell$-position, and such that the normed space $(R^n,\|\cdot\|_B)$ admits a $1$-unconditional basis. Then for any…

In this paper, we firstly verify that if $M$ is a complete self-shrinker with polynomial volume growth in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, and if the squared norm of the second fundamental form of $M$ satisfies $0\leq|A|^2-1\leq\frac{1}{18}$, then…

In this paper we study the hyperbolicity in the sense of Gromov of domains in $\mathbb{R}^d$ $(d\geq3)$ with respect to the minimal metric introduced by Forstneri\v{c} and Kalaj. In particular, we prove that every bounded strongly minimally…

The main result of the paper: Given any $\varepsilon>0$, every locally finite subset of $\ell_2$ admits a $(1+\varepsilon)$-bilipschitz embedding into an arbitrary infinite-dimensional Banach space. The result is based on two results which…

A compact metric surface $M$ isometrically fills a closed metric curve $C$ if $\partial M=C$ and $d_M(x,y)=d_C(x,y)$ for every $x,y\in C=\partial M$; that is, $M$ does not introduce any ``shortcuts'' between points on its boundary. Gromov's…

Although the Nash theorem solves the isometric embedding problem, matters are inherently more involved if one is further seeking an embedding that is well-behaved from the standpoint of submanifold geometry. More generally, consider a…

Gr\"unbaum's inequality guarantees that the centroid of a convex body has halfspace depth at least $1/e$: every halfspace containing the centroid captures at least a $1/e$ fraction of the body's volume. For mixed-integer convex sets…
