We show that closed aspherical manifolds supporting an affine structure, whose holonomy map is injective and contains a pure translation, must have vanishing simplicial volume. This provides some further evidence for the veracity of the…
A Young subgroup of the symmetric group $\mathcal{S}_{N}$ with three factors, is realized as the stabilizer $G_{n}$ of a monomial $x^{\lambda}$ ( $=x_{1}^{\lambda_{1}}x_{2}^{\lambda_{2}}\cdots x_{N}^{\lambda_{N}}$) with $\lambda=\left(…
We study special functions on euclidean spaces from the viewpoint of riemannian symmetric spaces. Here the euclidean space $E^n = G/K$ where $G$ is the semidirect product $R^n \cdot K$ of the translation group with a closed subgroup $K$ of…
We generalize valuations on polyhedral cones to valuations on fans. For fans induced by hyperplane arrangements, we show a correspondence between rotation-invariant valuations and deletion-restriction invariants. In particular, we define a…
We prove that if a topological sphere smoothly embedded into $\mathbb{R}^3$ with normal curvatures absolutely bounded by $1$ is contained in an open ball of radius $2$, then the region it bounds must contain a unit ball. This result…
In this paper we deal with the problem of recovering functions from their spherical mean transform $\mathcal{R}$, which integrates functions on circles in the plane, in case where the centers of the circles of integration are located on a…

We prove several sharp distortion and monotonicity theorems for spherically convex functions defined on the unit disk involving geometric quantities such as spherical length, spherical area and total spherical curvature. These results can…
A basilar property and a useful tool in the theory of Sobolev spaces is the density of smooth compactly supported functions in the space $W^{k,p}(\R^n)$ (i.e. the functions with weak derivatives of orders $0$ to $k$ in $L^p$). On Riemannian…
In this paper we prove the conjecture of Korevaar and Meyers: for each $N\ge c_dt^d$ there exists a spherical $t$-design in the sphere $S^d$ consisting of $N$ points, where $c_d$ is a constant depending only on $d$.
This paper presents necessary, sufficient, and equivalent conditions for the spherical convexity of non-homogeneous quadratic functions. In addition to motivating this study and identifying useful criteria for determining whether such…

In this note, as a particular case of a more general result, we obtain the following theorem: Let $\Omega\subseteq {\bf R}^n$ be a non-empty bounded open set and let $f:\overline {\Omega}\to {\bf R}^n$ be a continuous function which is…

Given a spherical spacelike three-geometry, there exists a very simple algebraic condition which tells us whether, and in which, Schwarzschild solution this geometry can be smoothly embedded. One can use this result to show that any given…
We consider complete non-compact manifolds with either a sub-quadratic growth of the norm of the Riemann curvature, or a sub-quadratic growth of both the norm of the Ricci curvature and the squared inverse of the injectivity radius. We show…
