In this work we introduce a topological method for the search of fixed points and periodic points for continuous maps defined on generalized rectangles in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces. We name our technique "Stretching Along the…

Two simple predicates are adopted and certain real-valued piecewise continuous functions are constructed from them. This type of maps will be called quasi-step maps and aim to separate the fixed points of an iteration map in an interval.…

On a Riemannian manifold with a positive lower bound on the Ricci tensor, the distance of isoperimetric sets from geodesic balls is quantitatively controlled in terms of the gap between the isoperimetric profile of the manifold and that of…

We prove that every nearly spherical, positively curved surface is the contractive, volume-preserving image of a round sphere. The proof combines three main tools: the Ricci flow on surfaces, the Kim-Milman construction, and a multiscale…

We give a short proof of the contractibility of the space of geodesic triangulations with fixed combinatorial type of a convex polygon in the Euclidean plane. Moreover, for any $n>0$, we show that there exists a space of geodesic…

Discrete forms of the mean and directed curvature are constructed on piecewise flat manifolds, providing local curvature approximations for smooth manifolds embedded in both Euclidean and non-Euclidean spaces. The resulting expressions take…

Algorithms for the computation of the forward and inverse geodesic problems for an ellipsoid of revolution are derived. These are accurate to better than 15 nm when applied to the terrestrial ellipsoids. The solutions of other problems…

From the work of Phong and Sturm in 2007, for a polarised projective manifold and an ample test configuration, one can associate the geodesic ray of plurisubharmonic metrics on the polarising line bundle using the solution of the…

We construct explicit examples of geodesics in the mapping class group and show that the shadow of a geodesic in mapping class group to the curve graph does not have to be a quasi-geodesic. We also show that the quasi-axis of a…

We study the problem of partitioning a given simple polygon $P$ into a minimum number of connected polygonal pieces, each of bounded size. We describe a general technique for constructing such partitions that works for several notions of…

We extend the Local-to-Global-Principle used in the proof of convexity theorems for momentum maps to not necessarily closed maps whose target space carries a convexity structure which need not be based on a metric. Using a new factorization…

In this paper, we study the topology of complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds with asymptotically nonnegative Ricci curvature. We show that a complete noncompact manifold with asymptoticaly nonnegative Ricci curvature and sectional…

We give a new and constructive proof of the existence of global-in-time weak solutions of the 3-dimensional incompressible semi-geostrophic equations (SG) in geostrophic coordinates, for arbitrary initial measures with compact support. This…

In this paper, we focus on homogeneous spaces which are constructed from two strongly isotropy irreducible spaces, and prove that any geodesic orbit metric on these spaces is naturally reductive.

This is an invitation to the probabilistic approach for constructing K\"ahler-Einstein metrics on complex projective algebraic manifolds X. The metrics in question emerge in the large N-limit from a canonical way of sampling N points on X,…

We investigate the influence of uniformly positive scalar curvature on the size of a non-collapsed Ricci limit space coming from a sequence of $n$-manifolds with non-negative Ricci curvature and uniformly positive scalar curvature. We prove…

Inspired by the prospect of having discretized spaces emerge from random graphs, we construct a collection of simple and explicit exponential random graph models that enjoy, in an appropriate parameter regime, a roughly constant vertex…

We consider a geometric property of the closest-points projection to a geodesic in Teichm\"uller space: the projection is called contracting if arbitrarily large balls away from the geodesic project to sets of bounded diameter. (This…

A typical computational geometry problem begins: Consider a set P of n points in R^d. However, many applications today work with input that is not precisely known, for example when the data is sensed and has some known error model. What if…

We introduce a new perspective on the classical Nirenberg problem of understanding the possible Gauss curvatures of metrics on $S^{2}$ conformal to the round metric. A key tool is to employ the smooth Cheeger-Gromov compactness theorem to…
