We study the possible existence of a Newtonian regime of gravity in $1+1$ dimensions, considering metrics in both the Kerr-Schild and conformal forms. In the former case, the metric gives the exact solution of the Poisson equation in flat…

We adapt to an infinite dimensional ambient space E.R. Reifenberg's epiperimetric inequality and a quantitative version of D. Preiss' second moments computations to establish that the set of regular points of an almost mass minimizing…

We study how small is the set of critical values of the distance function from a compact (resp. closed) set in the plane or in a connected complete two-dimensional Riemannian manifold. We show that for a compact set, the set of critical…

Given a simple graph $G$ and an integer $k$, the goal of $k$-Clique problem is to decide if $G$ contains a complete subgraph of size $k$. We say an algorithm approximates $k$-Clique within a factor $g(k)$ if it can find a clique of size at…

In this paper we characterize sparse solutions for variational problems of the form $\min_{u\in X} \phi(u) + F(\mathcal{A} u)$, where $X$ is a locally convex space, $\mathcal{A}$ is a linear continuous operator that maps into a finite…

Given a compact set $E \subset \mathbb{R}^{d - 1}$, $d \geq 1$, write $K_{E} := [0,1] \times E \subset \mathbb{R}^{d}$. A theorem of C. Bishop and J. Tyson states that any set of the form $K_{E}$ is minimal for conformal dimension: if…

Let $X_1,\ldots,X_n$ be a sequence of independent random points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with common Lebesgue density $f$. Under some conditions on $f$, we obtain a Poisson limit theorem, as $n \to \infty$, for the number of large probability…

We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for the differentiability of the distance function generated by a nonempty closed set K in a real normed linear space X under a proximinality condition on K. We do not assume the uniform…

In this paper we consider the problem of minimizing functionals of the form $E(u)=\int_B f(x,\nabla u) \,dx$ in a suitably prepared class of incompressible, planar maps $u: B \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^2$. Here, $B$ is the unit disk and…

Given a connected Lipschitz domain U we let L(U) be the subset of functions in 2nd order Sobolev space whose gradient (in the sense of trace) is equal to the inward pointing unit normal to U. The the Aviles Giga functional over L(U) serves…

We study the Lusin approximation problem for real-valued measurable functions on Carnot groups. We prove that k-approximate differentiability almost everywhere is equivalent to admitting a Lusin approximation by $C^{k}_{\mathbb{G}}$ maps.…

Let $E,F$ be exact operators (For example subspaces of the $C^*$-algebra $K(H)$ of all the compact operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space $H$). We study a class of bounded linear maps $u\colon E\to F^*$ which we call tracially…

In this paper we extend a recent result of Collin-Rosenberg ({\it a solution to the minimal surface equation in the Euclidean disc has radial limits almost everywhere}) to a large class of differential operators in Divergence form.…

We consider the problem of jointly minimizing forms of two Boolean functions $f, g \colon \{0,1\}^J \to \{0,1\}$ such that $f + g \leq 1$ and so as to separate disjoint sets $A \cup B \subseteq \{0,1\}^J$ such that $f(A) = \{1\}$ and $g(B)…

Let $(M, g, J, f)$ be an irreducible non-trivial K\"{a}hler gradient Ricci soliton of real dimension $2n$. We show that its group of isometries is of dimension at most $n^2$ and the case of equality is characterized. As a consequence, our…

In this paper we consider a wide class of generalized Lipschitz extension problems and the corresponding problem of finding absolutely minimal Lipschitz extensions. We prove that if a minimal Lipschitz extension exists, then under certain…

In this paper, we discuss some dimension results for triangle sets of compact sets in $\mathbb{R}^2$. In particular, we prove that for any compact set $F$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$, the triangle set $\Delta(F)$ satisfies \[ \dim_{\mathrm{A}}…
