We give a condition on the curvature tensors of Riemannian manifolds that admit Lipschitz approximation by polyhedral metrics with curvature bounded below or above. We show that this condition is also sufficient for the existence of local…

The metric tensor of a Riemannian manifold can be approximated using Regge finite elements and such approximations can be used to compute approximations to the Gauss curvature and the Levi-Civita connection of the manifold. It is shown that…

Recall that the radius of a compact metric space $(X, dist)$ is given by $rad\ X = \min_{x\in X} \max_{y\in X} dist(x,y)$. In this paper we generalize Berger's $\frac{1}{4}$-pinched rigidity theorem and show that a closed, simply connected,…

This article is concerned with the approximation of unbounded convex sets by polyhedra. While there is an abundance of literature investigating this task for compact sets, results on the unbounded case are scarce. We first point out the…

We propose a new approach to the study of compact Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative Ricci curvature and strictly convex boundary or positive Ricci curvature and convex boundary. Several conjectures are formulated. Some partial results…

We approximate the spectral data (eigenvalues and eigenfunctions) of compact Riemannian manifold by the spectral data of a sequence of (computable) discrete Laplace operators associated to some graphs immersed in the manifold. We give an…

In this paper, we proved a compactness result about Riemannian manifolds with an arbitrary pointwisely pinched Ricci curvature tensor.

We show that, by sampling a sufficiently large number of random points in a neighborhood of a compact submanifold M of a Riemannian manifold N, one can recover the topology of M with high confidence. This holds under the assumptions on the…

Let $M^n$ be an $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary $\partial M$. Assume that Ricci curvature is bounded from below by $(n-1)k$, for $k\in \RR$, we give a sharp estimate of the upper bound of $\rho(x)=\dis(x, \partial M)$, in…

The purpose of this paper is to study holomorphic approximation and approximation of $\bar\partial$-closed forms in complex manifolds of complex dimension $n\geq 1$. We consider extensions of the classical Runge theorem and the Mergelyan…

In this paper, we successfully set up a generalized sphere theorem for compact Riemannian manifolds with radial Ricci curvature bounded.

The Runge approximation theorem for holomorphic maps (U -> C) is a fundamental result in complex analysis. The aim of this article is to prove such a result for (pseudo-)holomorphic maps from a compact Riemann surface to a compact…

(1) For a compact Riemannian manifold without boundary $(M,g)$ containing $n+1$ points $p_i$ and the $n$-dimensional standard simplex $\Delta$, the miniser of \[ E: M \times \Delta \to {\mathbf R}, (a,\lambda) \mapsto \lambda^0 d^2(a,p_0) +…

This work is motivated by two problems: 1) The approach of manifolds and spaces by triangulations. 2) The complexity growth in sequences of polyhedra. Considering both problems as related, new criteria and methods for approximating smooth…

A famous theorem of Weyl states that if $M$ is a compact submanifold of euclidean space, then the volumes of small tubes about $M$ are given by a polynomial in the radius $r$, with coefficients that are expressible as integrals of certain…

The ratio of convexity radius over injectivity radius may be made arbitrarily small within the class of compact Riemannian manifolds of any fixed dimension at least two. This is proved using Gulliver's method of constructing manifolds with…

We define the notion of an approximate triangulation for a manifold $M$ embedded in euclidean space. The basic idea is to build a nested family of simplicial complexes whose vertices lie in $M$ and use persistent homology to find a complex…
