The present work considers the properties of generally convex sets in the $n$-dimensional real Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n>1$, known as weakly $m$-convex, $m=1,2,\ldots,n-1$. An open set of $\mathbb{R}^n$ is called weakly $m$-convex…

We prove that any weakly non-collapsed RCD space is actually non-collapsed, up to a renormalization of the measure. This confirms a conjecture raised by De Philippis and the second named author in full generality. One of the auxiliary…

We characterize the three-dimensional spaces admitting at least six or at least seven equidistant points. In particular, we show the existence of $C^\infty$ norms on $\R^3$ admitting six equidistant points, which refutes a conjecture of…

We introduce "weakly chained spaces", which need not be locally connected or path connected, but for which one has a reasonable notion of generalized fundamental group and associated generalized universal cover. We show that in the compact…

In this paper, we introduce the new class of continua; weakly infinite-dimensional closed set-aposyndetic continua. With this notion, we show that there exists a non-D-continuum such that each positive Whitney level of the hyperspace of the…

In this paper, we propose the study of a conjecture whose affirmative solution would provide an example of a non-convex Chebyshev set in an infinite-dimensional real Hilbert space.

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of geometric objects. We call a point $x \in P$ a strong centerpoint of $P$ w.r.t $\mathcal{F}$ if $x$ is contained in all $F \in \mathcal{F}$ that contains more…

For the non-rotating gaseous stars modeled by the compressible Euler-Poisson system with general pressure law, Lin and Zeng [18] proved a turning point principle, which gives the sharp linear stability/instability criteria for the…

It is conjectured that all decomposable (i.e. interior can be triangulated without adding new vertices) polyhedra with vertices in convex position are infinitesimally rigid and only recently has it been shown that this is indeed true under…

This thesis is a study of large sets of unit vectors in $\cx^n$ such that the absolute value of their standard inner products takes on only a small number of values. We begin with bounds: what is the maximal size of a set of lines with only…

The existence of positive weak solutions to a singular quasilinear elliptic system in the whole space is established via suitable a priori estimates and Schauder's fixed point theorem.

We show the short-time existence and nonlinear stability of vortex sheets for the nonisentropic compressible Euler equations in two spatial dimensions, based on the weakly linear stability result of Morando--Trebeschi (2008) [20]. The…

In this work, we introduce the geometric concept of one-sided weakly porous sets in the real line and show that a set $E\subset\mathbb{R}$ satisfies $d(\cdot,E)^{-\alpha}\in A_1^+(\mathbb{R})\cap L^1_\textrm{loc}(\mathbb{R})$ for some…

We prove that the Dirichlet problem for the Lane-Emden equation in a half-space has no positive solutions which grow at most like the distance to the boundary to a power given by the natural scaling exponent of the equation; in other words,…

We characterize Ascoli spaces by showing that a Tychonoff space $X$ is Ascoli iff the canonical map from the free locally convex space $L(X)$ over $X$ into $C_k\big(C_k(X)\big)$ is an embedding of locally convex spaces. We prove that an…

The present work considers the properties of classes of generally convex sets in the plane known as $1$-semiconvex and weakly $1$-semiconvex. More specifically, the examples of open and closed weakly $1$-semiconvex but non $1$-semiconvex…

We consider kinetic systems and prove their stability working in weighted spaces in which the systems are symmetric. We prove stability for various explicit and implicit semi-discrete and fully discrete schemes. The applications include…

The notion of super weak compactness for subsets of Banach spaces is a strengthening of the weak compactness that can be described as a local version of super-reflexivity. A recent result of K. Tu which establishes that the closed convex…

We obtain some nonexistence results for complete noncompact stable hyppersurfaces with nonnegative constant scalar curvature in Euclidean spaces. As a special case we prove that there is no complete noncompact strongly stable hypersurface…

We show that, for every set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional unit cube, there is an empty axis-parallel box of volume at least $\Omega(d/n)$ as $n\to\infty$ and $d$ is fixed. In the opposite direction, we give a construction without an…
