We discuss in which sense general metric measure spaces possess a first order differential structure. Building on this, we then see that on spaces with Ricci curvature bounded from below a second order calculus can be developed, permitting…
Basic aspects of differential geometry can be extended to various non-classical settings: Lipschitz manifolds, rectifiable sets, sub-Riemannian manifolds, Banach manifolds, Weiner space, etc. Although the constructions differ, in each of…
The notion of tamed Dirichlet space was proposed by Erbar, Rigoni, Sturm and Tamanini as a Dirichlet space having a weak form of Bakry-\'Emery curvature lower bounds in distribution sense. After their work, Braun established a vector…

We develop the theory of tamed spaces which are Dirichlet spaces with distribution-valued lower bounds on the Ricci curvature and investigate these from an Eulerian point of view. To this end we analyze in detail singular perturbations of…
We obtain a compactness result for various classes of Riemannian metrics in dimension four; in particular our method applies to anti-self-dual metrics, Kahler metrics with constant scalar curvature, and metrics with harmonic curvature. With…
In this paper we study $2$nd order $L^\infty$ variational problems, through seeking to minimise a supremal functional involving the Hessian of admissible functions as well as lower-order terms. Specifically, given a bounded domain…

We investigate the first-order differential calculus over extended metric-topological measure spaces. The latter are quartets $\mathbb X=(X,\tau,{\sf d},\mathfrak m)$, given by an extended metric space $(X,{\sf d})$ together with a weaker…
In this paper, we consider the Dirichlet problem for a new class of augmented Hessian equations. Under sharp assumptions that the matrix function in the augmented Hessian is regular and there exists a smooth subsolution, we establish global…
Recently Gigli developed a Sobolev calculus on non-smooth spaces using module theory. In this paper it is shown that his theory fits nicely into the theory of differentiability spaces initiated by Cheeger, Keith and others. A relaxation…
We prove that on a large family of metric measure spaces, if the $L^p$-gradient estimate for heat flows holds for some $p>2$, then the $L^1$-gradient estimate also holds. This result extends Savar\'e's result on metric measure spaces, and…
We consider the moduli space of the extremal K\"ahler metrics on compact manifolds. We show that under the conditions of two-sided total volume bounds, $L^{n\over2}$-norm bounds on $\Riem$, and Sobolev constant bounds, this Moduli space can…
The space of Lam\'e functions of order m is isomorphic to the space of pairs (elliptic curve, Abelian differential) where the differential has a single zero of order 2m at the origin and m double poles with vanishing residues. We describe…
In this article, we derive estimates of Teichm\"uller modular forms, and associated invariants. Let $\mathcal{M}_{g}$ denote the moduli space of compact hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of genus $g\geq 2$, and let $\overline{M}_{g}$ be the…
The paper surveys some recent results concerning vector analysis on fractals. We start with a local regular Dirichlet form and use the framework of 1-forms and derivations introduced by Cipriani and Sauvageot to set up some elements of a…

In order to develop a differential calculus for error propagation we study local Dirichlet forms on probability spaces with square field operator $\Gamma$ -- i.e. error structures -- and we are looking for an object related to $\Gamma$…
