We construct quasiisometries of nilpotent Lie groups. In particular, for any simply connected nilpotent Lie group N, we construct quasiisometries from N to itself that is not at finite distance from any map that is a composition of left…

We show that every nilpotent group of class at most two may be embedded in a central extension of abelian groups with bilinear cocycle. The embedding is shown to depend only on the base group. Some refinements are obtained by considering…

We consider Lie groups equipped with arbitrary distances. We only assume that the distance is left-invariant and induces the manifold topology. For brevity, we call such object metric Lie groups. Apart from Riemannian Lie groups,…

This paper deals with the problem of finding bi-Lipschitz behavior in non-degenerate Lipschitz maps between metric measure spaces. Specifically, we study maps from (subsets of) Ahlfors regular PI spaces into sub-Riemannian Carnot groups. We…

We discuss the notion of sublinearly bilipschitz equivalences (SBE), which generalize quasi-isometries, allowing some additional terms that behave sublinearly with respect to the distance from the origin. Such maps were originally motivated…

We give sufficient conditions for a metric space to bilipschitz embed in L_1. In particular, if X is a length space and there is a Lipschitz map u:X--->R such that for every interval I in R, the connected components of the inverse image…

For each left-invariant semi-Riemannian metric $g$ on a Lie group $G$, we introduce the class of bi-Lipschitz Riemannian Clairaut metrics, whose completeness implies the completeness of $g$. When the adjoint representation of $G$ satisfies…

Given a finite type degree-wise nilpotent $L_\infty$-algebra, we construct an abelian group that acts on the set of Maurer-Cartan elements of the given $L_\infty$-algebra so that the quotient by this action becomes the moduli space of…

In this work we investigate solvable and nilpotent Lie groups with special metrics. The metrics of interest are left-invariant Einstein and algebraic Ricci soliton metrics. Our main result shows that the existence of a such a metric is…

We characterize Carnot groups admitting a 1-quasiconformal metric inversion as the Lie groups of Heisenberg type whose Lie algebras satisfy the $J^2$-condition, thus characterizing a special case of inversion invariant bi-Lipschitz…

The Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ equipped with a sub-Riemannian metric is one of the most well known examples of a doubling metric space which does not admit a bi-Lipschitz embedding into any Euclidean space. In this paper we investigate…
