We show that for every complete metric space $M$ there exists another complete metric space $N$ of the same density character such that the curve-flat quotient of $N$ is isometric to $M$. Moreover, we show that if $M$ is compact and…
We show that several operator ideals coincide when intersected with the class of linearizations of Lipschitz maps. In particular, we show that the linearization $\widehat{f}$ of a Lipschitz map $f:M\to N$ is Dunford-Pettis if and only if it…
If $M$ is the underlying smooth oriented $4$-manifold of a Del Pezzo surface, we consider the set of Riemannian metrics $h$ on $M$ such that $W^+(\omega , \omega )> 0$, where $W^+$ is the self-dual Weyl curvature of $h$, and $\omega$ is a…
Let $M$ be a compact, orientable, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold, $n\geq2$, and let $F$ be the energy functional acting on the space $\Xi (M)$ of $C^{\infty }$ vector fields of $M$, \[ F(X):=\frac{\int_{M}\left\Vert \nabla X\right\Vert…
We prove that for any given compact Riemannian manifold $N$ of dimension $n+1 \geq 3$ and any non-negative Lipschitz function $g$ on $N$, there exists a quasi-embedded, boundaryless hypersurface $M \subset N,$ of class $C^{2, \alpha}$ for…
We show that any smooth bi-Lipschitz $h$ can be represented exactly as a composition $h_m \circ ... \circ h_1$ of functions $h_1,...,h_m$ that are close to the identity in the sense that each $\left(h_i-\mathrm{Id}\right)$ is Lipschitz, and…
Assume that $(\mathcal{N},\hbar)$ and $(\mathcal{M},\wp)$ are two Riemann surfaces with conformal metrics $\hbar$ and $\wp$. We prove that if there is a harmonic homeomorphism between an annulus $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathcal{N}$ with a…
In this paper we prove the Lipschitz regularity for local minimizers of convex variational integrals of the form \[ \mathfrak{F}( v, \Omega )= \int_{\Omega} \! F(x, Dv(x)) \, dx, \] where, for ${n > 2}$ and $N\ge 1$, $\Omega$ is a bounded…
Let $(S,h)$ be a closed hyperbolic surface and $M$ be a quasi-Fuchsian 3-manifold. We consider incompressible maps from $S$ to $M$ that are critical points of an energy functional $F$ which is homogeneous of degree $1$. These "minimizing"…
We give characterizations of the bounded subanalytic $\mathscr{C}^\infty$ submanifolds $M$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ for which the space of Neumann regular functions is dense in Sobolev spaces. By ``Neumann regular function'', we mean a function…
We study $p$--harmonic maps with Dirichlet boundary conditions from a planar domain into a general compact Riemannian manifold. We show that as $p$ approaches $2$ from below, they converge up to a subsequence to a minimizing singular…
Loewner's equation provides a way to encode a simply connected domain or equivalently its uniformizing conformal map via a real-valued driving function of its boundary. The first main result of the present paper is that the Dirichlet energy…
We consider harmonic maps$u(z): \mathcal{X}_z\to N$ in a fixed homotopy class from Riemann surfaces $\mathcal{X}_z$ of genus $g\geq 2$ varying in the Teichm\"u{}ller space $\mathcal T$ to a Riemannian manifold $N$ with non-positive…
