In recent years, considerable advances have been made in the study of properties of metric spaces in terms of their doubling dimension. This line of research has not only enhanced our understanding of finite metrics, but has also resulted…
The space of shapes of a polyhedron with given total angles less than 2\pi at each of its n vertices has a Kaehler metric, locally isometric to complex hyperbolic space CH^{n-3}. The metric is not complete: collisions between vertices take…
This paper consists of two results dealing with balanced metrics (in S. Donaldson terminology) on nonconpact complex manifolds. In the first one we describe all balanced metrics on Cartan domains. In the second one we show that the only…
We prove the existence of complete cohomogeneity one triaxial K\"ahler-Einstein metrics in dimension four under an action of the Euclidean group $E(2)$. We also demonstrate local existence of Ricci flat K\"ahler metrics of a related type…
Under appropriate assumptions on the $N(\Omega)$-fucntion, the De Giorgi process is presented in the framework of Musielak-Orlicz-Sobolev space to prove the H\"{o}lder continuity of fully nonlinear elliptic problems. As the applications,…
In this paper the theory of uniformly convex metric spaces is developed. These spaces exhibit a generalized convexity of the metric from a fixed point. Using a (nearly) uniform convexity property a simple proof of reflexivity is presented…
Shimizu and Takahashi have shown that every decreasing sequence of nonempty, bounded, closed, convex subsets of a complete, uniformly Takahashi convex metric space has nonempty intersection. It is well known that the Menger convexity is a…
Let $X\hookrightarrow \cpn $ be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension $n$. Let $\lambda$ be an algebraic one parameter subgroup of $G:=\gc$. Let $ 0\leq l\leq n+1$. We associate to the coefficients $F_{l}(\lambda)$ of the…
We prove that a metric measure space $(X,d,m)$ satisfying finite dimensional lower Ricci curvature bounds and whose Sobolev space $W^{1,2}$ is Hilbert is rectifiable. That is, a $RCD^*(K,N)$-space is rectifiable, and in particular for…
We show that Hermitian metrics with vanishing holomorphic curvature on compact complex manifolds with pseudoeffective canonical bundle are conformally balanced. Pluriclosed metrics with vanishing holomorphic curvature on compact K\"ahler…
We study the space of Sasaki metrics on a compact manifold $M$ by introducing an odd-dimensional analogue of the $J$-flow. That leads to the notion of critical metric in the Sasakian context. In analogy to the K\"ahler case, on a polarised…
We establish a uniform Sobolev inequality for K\"ahler metrics, which only require an entropy bound and no lower bound on the Ricci curvature. We further extend our Sobolev inequality to singular K\"ahler metrics on K\"ahler spaces with…
In this article, we construct a new para-K\"ahler structure $({\mathcal G},{\mathcal J},\Omega)$ in the space of oriented geodesics ${\mathbb L}(M)$ in a non-flat, real space form $M$. We first show that the para-K\"ahler metric ${\mathcal…
Finite energy pluripotential theory accommodates the variational theory of equations of complex Monge-Amp\`ere type arising in K\"ahler geometry. Recently it has been discovered that many of the potential spaces involved have a rich metric…
Conventional gauge-fixing schemes such as R$_\xi$ gauges may lead to a violation of the Higgs-boson low-energy theorem beyond the tree level. To elucidate this fact, we study a simple model whose U(1) gauge symmetry is spontaneously broken,…
Let $(X, d)$ be a compact metric space and let $\mathcal{M}(X)$ denote the space of all finite signed Borel measures on $X$. Define $I \colon \mathcal{M}(X) \to \R$ by \[I(\mu) = \int_X \int_X d(x,y) d\mu(x) d\mu(y),\] and set $M(X) = \sup…
A classical theorem, mainly due to Aleksandrov and Pogorelov, states that any Riemannian metric on $S^2$ with curvature $K>-1$ is induced on a unique convex surface in $H^3$. A similar result holds with the induced metric replaced by the…
For some centrally symmetric convex bodies $K\subset \mathbb R^n$, we study the energy integral $$ \sup \int_{K} \int_{K} \|x - y\|_r^{p}\, d\mu(x) d\mu(y), $$ where the supremum runs over all finite signed Borel measures $\mu$ on $K$ of…
We study the metric and topological properties of the space $\mathscr{D}(G)$ of left-invariant hyperbolic pseudometrics on the non-elementary hyperbolic group $G$ that are quasi-isometric to a word metric, up to rough similarity. This space…
