It is known that if finite subsets of a locally finite metric space $M$ admit $C$-bilipschitz embeddings into $\ell_p$ $(1\le p\le \infty)$, then for every $\epsilon>0$, the space $M$ admits a $(C+\epsilon)$-bilipschitz embedding into…

For $p \in (1,\infty)\setminus \{2\}$, some properties of the space $\mathscr{M}_p$ of multipliers on $\ell^p_A$ are derived. In particular, the failure of the weak parallelogram laws and the Pythagorean inequalities is demonstrated for…

We present two fast constructions of weak*-copies of $\ell ^\infty$ in $H^{\infty}$ and show that such copies are necessarily weak*-complemented. Moreover, via a Paley-Wiener type of stability theorem for bases, a connection can be made in…

This paper gives some relating results for various concepts of convexity in metric spaces such as midpoint convexity, convex structure, uniform convexity and near-uniform convexity, Busemann curvature and its relation to convexity. Some…

We show that in doubling, geodesic metric measure spaces (including, for example, Euclidean space), sets of positive measure have a certain large-scale metric density property. As an application, we prove that a set of positive measure in…

We provide examples of non-locally compact geodesic Ptolemy metric spaces which are not uniquely geodesic. On the other hand, we show that locally compact, geodesic Ptolemy metric spaces are uniquely geodesic. Moreover, we prove that a…

We give a geometric characterization of extremal sets in ell_p spaces that generalizes our previous result for such sets in Hilbert spaces.

Lipschitz decomposition is a useful tool in the design of efficient algorithms involving metric spaces. While many bounds are known for different families of finite metrics, the optimal parameters for $n$-point subsets of $\ell_p$, for $p >…

Injective metric spaces, or absolute 1-Lipschitz retracts, share a number of properties with CAT(0) spaces. In the 1960es, J. R. Isbell showed that every metric space X has an injective hull E(X). Here it is proved that if X is the vertex…

Let $(X,\omega)$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold of dimension $n$, and $\theta$ be a closed smooth real $(1,1)$-form representing a big and nef cohomology class. We introduce a metric $d_p, p\geq 1$, on the finite energy space…

Given a parabolic geometry, it is sometimes possible to find special metrics characterised by some invariant conditions. In conformal geometry, for example, one asks for an Einstein metric in the conformal class. Einstein metrics have the…

We investigate modularity of elliptic curves over a general totally real number field, establishing a finiteness result for the set non-modular $j$-invariants. By analyzing quadratic points on some modular curves, we show that all elliptic…

Let $\mu$ be a nonnegative Borel measure on the open unit disk $\mathbb{D}\subset\mathbb{C}$. This note shows how to decide that the M\"obius invariant space $\mathcal{Q}_p$, covering $\mathcal{BMOA}$ and $\mathcal{B}$, is boundedly (resp.,…

We consider epimorphisms and several variant notions -- split, effective, regular, strong, and extremal -- and determine which of these coincide in the metric coarse and coarsely Lipschitz categories. In particular, we characterise extremal…

Let $X$ be a sequence space and denote by $Z(X)$ the subset of $X$ formed by sequences having only a finite number of zero coordinates. We study algebraic properties of $Z(X)$ and show (among other results) that (for $p \in [1,\infty]$)…

We establish the first pointwise ergodic theorems along thin sets of prime numbers; a set with zero density with respect to the primes. For instance we will be able to achieve this with the Piatetski-Shapiro primes. Our methods will be…

Let $\mathcal{M}(\Omega, \mu)$ denote the algebra of all scalar-valued measurable functions on a measure space $(\Omega, \mu)$. Let $B \subset \mathcal{M}(\Omega, \mu)$ be a set of finitely supported measurable functions such that the…

We study complex surfaces with locally CAT(0) polyhedral Kahler metrics and construct such metrics on CP^2 with various orbifold structures. In particular, in relation to questions of Gromov and Davis-Moussong we construct such metrics on a…

We determine explicit birational models over Q for the modular surfaces parametrising pairs of N-congruent elliptic curves in all cases where this surface is an elliptic surface. In each case we also determine the rank of the Mordell-Weil…

L^p spaces of mappings taking values in arbitrary metric spaces, which we call nonlinear Lebesgue spaces, play an important role in several fields of mathematics. For instance, membership in these spaces is typically required for transport…
