A periodic geodesic on a surface has a natural lift to the unit tangent bundle; when the complement of this lift is hyperbolic, its volume typically grows as the geodesic gets longer. We give an upper bound for this volume which is linear…

We consider Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms $\phi$ of the unit cotangent bundle over a closed Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ which extend to Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of $T^*M$ equal to the time-1-map of the geodesic flow for $|p| \ge 1$. For…

Bray's football theorem (\cite{bray2009penrose}) is a weakening of Bishop theorem in dimension 3. It gives a sharp volume upper bound for a three dimensional manifold with scalar curvature larger than $n(n-1)$ and Ricci curvature larger…

We study the accelerated expansion of the Universe through its consequences on a congruence of geodesics. We make use of the Raychaudhuri equation which describes the evolution of the expansion rate for a congruence of timelike or null…

We consider global geometric properties of a codimension one manifold embedded in Euclidean space, as it evolves under an isotropic and volume preserving Brownian flow of diffeomorphisms. In particular, we obtain expressions describing the…

We prove a Lipschitz-Volume rigidity theorem for the non-collapsed Gromov-Hausdorff limits of manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded from below. This is a counterpart of the Lipschitz-Volume rigidity in Alexandrov geometry.

For a proper, Gromov-hyperbolic metric space and a discrete, non-elementary, group of isometries, we define a natural subset of the limit set at infinity of the group called the ergodic limit set. The name is motivated by the fact that…

The geodesic deviation equation, describing the relative accelerations of nearby particles, and the Raychaudhury equation, giving the evolution of the kinematical quantities associated with deformations (expansion, shear and rotation) are…

This paper explores the behavior of the torsional rigidity of a precompact domain as the ambient manifold evolves under a geometric flow. Specifically, we derive bounds on torsional rigidity under the Ricci Flow for Heisenberg spaces and…

The volume entropy of a compact metric measure space is known to be the exponential growth rate of the measure lifted to its universal cover at infinity. For a compact Riemannian $n$-manifold with a negative lower Ricci curvature bound and…

We present the Tetrahedral Compactness Theorem which states that sequences of Riemannian manifolds with a uniform upper bound on volume and diameter that satisfy a uniform tetrahedral property have a subsequence which converges in the…

We consider a Jordan domain diffeomorphic to a closed two-dimensional disk with a smooth boundary. Assuming the Gauss curvature of the domain has a negative lower bound, the Gauss-Bonnet formula provides an upper bound for the total…

Examples show that Riemannian manifolds with almost-Euclidean lower bounds on scalar curvature and Perelman entropy need not be close to Euclidean space in any metric space sense. Here we show that if one additionally assumes an…

We make some improvements to our previous results. First, we prove a version of our volume growth theorem which does not require any assumption on the first Betti number. Second, we show that our local regularity theorem only requires a…

We show that the Betti numbers of finite-volume negatively curved orbifolds grow at most linearly with the volume, with coefficients in an arbitrary field. In particular, this gives a linear bound for the Betti numbers of finite-volume…

In this article we exhibit the largest constant in a quadratic isoperimetric inequality which ensures that a geodesic metric space is Gromov hyperbolic. As a particular consequence we obtain that Euclidean space is a borderline case for…

We show that every non-elementary group $G$ acting properly and cocompactly by isometries on a proper geodesic Gromov hyperbolic space $X$ is growth tight. In other words, the exponential growth rate of $G$ for the geometric…

A recent paper [CGT] studies the evolution of star-shaped mean convex hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space by a class of nonhomogeneous expanding curvature flows. In the present paper we consider the same problem in the real, complex and…

In this note we reprove a theorem of Gromov using Ricci flow. The theorem states that a, possibly non-constant, lower bound on the scalar curvature is stable under $C^0$-convergence of the metric.

We study the asymptotic behaviour of simply connected, Riemannian manifolds $X$ of strictly negative curvature admitting a non-uniform lattice $\Gamma$. If the quotient manifold $\bar X= \Gamma \backslash X$ is asymptotically $1/4$-pinched,…
