We obtain sufficient conditions exlcuding the existence of non-trivial distribution sections of bundles over the boundary of symmetric spaces of negative curvature which are invariant with respect to a geometrically finite group of…
We propose a definition of non-collapsed space with Ricci curvature bounded from below and we prove the versions of Colding's volume convergence theorem and of Cheeger-Colding dimension gap estimate for ${\sf RCD}$ spaces. In particular…
We characterize the finite dimensional asymmetric normed spaces which are right bounded and the relation of this property with the natural compactness properties of the unit ball, as compactness and strong compactness. In contrast with some…
We fully characterize those von Neumann algebras having the ball-covering property. We also study the ball-covering property of noncommutative symmetric spaces. In particular, we provide a number of new examples of non-separable…
We show that if a noncollapsed $CD(K,n)$ space $X$ with $n\ge 2$ has curvature bounded above by $\kappa$ in the sense of Alexandrov then $K\le (n-1)\kappa$ and $X$ is an Alexandrov space of curvature bounded below by $K-\kappa (n-2)$. We…
We consider the covering of a ball in certain normed spaces by its congruent subsets and show that if the finite number of sets is not greater than the dimensionality of the space, then the centre of the ball either belongs to the interior…
We study branched covering spaces in several contexts, proving that under suitable circumstances the cover satisfies the same upper curvature bounds as the base space. The first context is of a branched cover of an arbitrary metric space…
In this paper we extend Efimov's Theorem by proving that any complete surface in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with Gauss curvature bounded above by a negative constant outside a compact set has finite total curvature, finite area and is properly…
In the present paper, we consider the family of all compact Alexandrov spaces with curvature bound below having a definite upper diameter bound of a fixed dimension. We introduce the notion of essential coverings by contractible metric…
We prove that, given any covering of any separable infinite-dimensional uniformly rotund and uniformly smooth Banach space $X$ by closed balls each of positive radius, some point exists in $X$ which belongs to infinitely many balls.
We study graphs with nonnegative Bakry-\'Emery curvature or Ollivier curvature outside a finite subset. For such a graph, via introducing the discrete Gromov-Hausdorff convergence we prove that the space of bounded harmonic functions is…
In this paper, we study the boundary behaviors of compact manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and with nonempty boundary. Using a general version of Positive Mass Theorem of Schoen-Yau and Witten, we prove the following theorem: For…
We prove that the highest density of non-overlapping translates of a given centrally symmetric convex domain relative to its outer parallel domain of given outer radius is attained by a lattice packing in the Euclidean plane. This…
We prove that various spaces of constrained positive scalar curvature metrics on compact 3-manifolds with boundary, when not empty, are contractible. The constraints we mostly focus on are given in terms of local conditions on the mean…
In this paper,\ the authors define a space with an uniform base at non-isolated points, give some characterizations of images of metric spaces by boundary-compact maps, and study certain relationship among spaces with special base…
We generalize the classical notion of packing a set by balls with identical radii to the case where the radii may be different. The largest number of such balls that fit inside the set without overlapping is called its {\em non-uniform…
We show that if a $CD(K,n)$ space $(X,d,f\mathcal{H}^n)$ with $n\geq 2$ has curvature bounded from above by $\kappa$ in the sense of Alexandrov then $f=const$.
Ketterer and Rajala showed an example of metric measure space, satisfying the measure contraction property $MCP(0,3)$, that has different topological dimensions at different regions of the space. In this article I propose a refinement of…
We define the compact universal cover of a compact, metrizable connected space (i.e. a continuum) X to be the inverse limit of all continua that regularly cover X. We show that such covers do indeed form an inverse system with bonding maps…
In this note we show that every (real or complex) vector bundle over a compact rank one symmetric space carries, after taking the Whitney sum with a trivial bundle of sufficiently large rank, a metric with nonnegative sectional curvature.…
