We extend Federer's coarea formula to mappings $f$ belonging to the Sobolev class $W^{1,p}(R^n;R^m)$, $1 \le m < n$, $p>m$, and more generally, to mappings with gradient in the Lorentz space $L^{m,1}(R^n)$. This is accomplished by showing…

We consider Hardy operators, i.e., homogeneous Schr\"odinger operators consisting of the ordinary or fractional Laplacian in a half-space plus a potential, which only depends on the appropriate power of the distance to the boundary of the…

Given a flat metric one may generate a local Hamiltonian structure via the fundamental result of Dubrovin and Novikov. More generally, a flat pencil of metrics will generate a local bi-Hamiltonian structure, and with additional…

We study harmonic maps from Riemannian manifolds into arbitrary non-positively curved and CAT(-1) metric spaces. First we discuss the domain variation formula with special emphasis on the error terms. Expanding higher order terms of this…

We obtain a compact Sobolev embedding for $H$-invariant functions in compact metric-measure spaces, where $H$ is a subgroup of the measure preserving bijections. In Riemannian manifolds, $H$ is a subgroup of the volume preserving…

An important result in the theory of harmonic maps is due to Benoist--Hulin: given a quasi-isometry $f:X\to Y$ between pinched Hadamard manifolds, there exists a unique harmonic map at a finite distance from $f$. Here we show existence of…

Let $(S,g_0)$ be a hyperbolic surface, $\rho$ be a Hitchin representation for $PSL(n,\mathbb R)$, and $f$ be the unique $\rho$-equivariant harmonic map from $(\widetilde S, \widetilde g_0)$ to the corresponding symmetric space. We show its…

Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a doubling metric measure space endowed with a Dirichlet form $\E$ deriving from a "carr\'e du champ". Assume that $(X,d,\mu,\E)$ supports a scale-invariant $L^2$-Poincar\'e inequality. In this article, we study the…

Let $(N,\rho)$ be a Riemannian manifold, $S$ a surface of genus at least two and let $f\colon S \to N$ be a continuous map. We consider the energy spectrum of $(N,\rho)$ (and $f$) which assigns to each point $[J]\in \mathcal{T}(S)$ in the…

In this paper, we describe in detail a model of geometric-functional variability between fshapes. These objects were introduced for the first time by the authors in [Charlier et al. 2015] and are basically the combination of classical…

We study the structure of Sobolev spaces on the cartesian/warped products of a given metric measure space and an interval. Our main results are: - the characterization of the Sobolev spaces in such products - the proof that, under natural…

The present paper introduces the concept of monotone Hopf-harmonics in $2D$ as an alternative to harmonic homeomorphisms. It opens a new area of study in Geometric Function Theory (GFT). Much of the foregoing is motivated by the principle…

We construct an explicit linear map from compact, conserved thermodynamic/effective-medium perturbations of the stress-energy tensor to the metric response in static, spherically symmetric spacetimes, and from there to geometric observables…

We study properties of Sobolev-type metrics on the space of immersed plane curves. We show that the geodesic equation for Sobolev-type metrics with constant coefficients of order 2 and higher is globally well-posed for smooth initial data…

A unified approach to embedding theorems for Sobolev type spaces of vector-valued functions, defined via their symmetric gradient, is proposed. The Sobolev spaces in question are built upon general rearrangement-invariant norms. Optimal…

The theory of geometric quantum mechanics describes a quantum system as a Hamiltonian dynamical system with a complex projective Hilbert space as its phase space, thus equipped with a Riemannian metric in addition to a symplectic structure.…

This paper considers the properties of Dirichlet Spaces of Homogeneous type which consist of band limited functions that are nearly exponential localizations on $\mathbb{R}^k.$ This is a powerful tool in harmonic analysis and it makes…

We prove that closed negatively curved locally symmetric spaces are characterized up to isometry among all homotopy equivalent negatively curved manifolds by the Lyapunov spectra of the periodic orbits of their geodesic flows. This is done…

The energy of harmonic sections of flat bundles of nonpositively curved (NPC) length spaces over a Riemann surface $S$ is a function $E_\rho$ on Teichm\"uller space $\Teich$ which is a qualitative invariant of the holonomy representation…

We prove that if $\Phi:X\to Y$ a mapping of weak bounded length distortion from a quasiconvex and complete metric space $X$ to any metric space $Y$, then for any Lipschitz mapping $f:\mathbb{R}^k\supset E\to X$ we have that ${\mathcal…
