The Bishop-Gromov theorem upperbounds the rate of growth of volume of geodesic balls in a space, in terms of the most negative component of the Ricci curvature. In this paper we prove a strengthening of the Bishop-Gromov bound 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…
Turbulent shear flows, such as those occurring in the wall region of turbulent boundary layers, manifest a substantial increase of intermittency with respect to isotropic conditions. This suggests a close link between anisotropy and…
The Cheeger constant of a graph, or equivalently its coboundary expansion, quantifies the expansion of the graph. This notion assumes an implicit choice of a coefficient group, namely, $\mathbb{F}_2$. In this paper, we study Cheeger-type…
