The maximum principle is one of the most important tools in the analysis of geometric partial differential equations. Traditionally, the maximum principle is applied to a scalar function defined on a manifold, but in recent years more…

In this paper we study the relationship between two fundamental regularity properties of an $s$-dimensional Calder\'{o}n-Zygmund operator (CZO) acting on a Borel measure $\mu$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$, with $s\in (0,d)$. In the classical case when…

In this paper we establish a gap phenomenon for immersed surfaces with arbitrary codimension, topology and boundaries that satisfy one of a family of systems of fourth-order anisotropic geometric partial differential equations. Examples…

Let $\mathcal G$ be the Cayley graph of a finitely generated, infinite group $\Gamma$. We show that $\Gamma$ has the Haagerup property if and only if for every $\alpha<1$, there is a $\Gamma$-invariant bond percolation $\mathbb P$ on…

We prove that for $d\ge 2,\, k\ge 2$, if the Hausdorff dimension of a compact set $E\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is greater than $\frac{d^2}{2d-1}$, then, for any given $r > 0$, there exist $(x^1, \dots, x^{k+1})\in E^{k+1}$, $(y^1, \dots,…

We introduce the notion of a two-scale branching function associated with an arbitrary metric space, which encodes the lower and upper box dimensions as well as the Assouad spectrum. If the metric space is quasi-doubling, this function is…

Gradient-like diffeomorphisms of a closed surface $M^2$ are characterized by a finite hyperbolic limit set and the absence of intersections of invariant manifolds of distinct saddle points. In the case where such diffeomorphisms $f_0,…

In a recent paper, Chan, \L aba, and Pramanik investigated geometric configurations inside thin subsets of the Euclidean set possessing measures with Fourier decay properties. In this paper we ask which configurations can be found inside…

We develop regularity theory for critical points of variational integrals defined on Hessian spaces of functions on open, bounded subdomains of $\mathbb{R}^n$, under compactly supported variations. The critical point solves a fourth order…

For a group $\Gamma$, a $\Gamma$-labelled graph is an undirected graph $G$ where every orientation of an edge is assigned an element of $\Gamma$ so that opposite orientations of the same edge are assigned inverse elements. A path in $G$ is…

We prove that any weakly acausal curve $\Gamma$ in the boundary of Anti-de Sitter (2+1)-space is the asymptotic boundary of two spacelike $K$-surfaces, one of which is past-convex and the other future-convex, for every $K\in(-\infty,-1)$.…

Let $\Gamma < G := \operatorname{SO}(d+1, 1)$ for $d \geq 1$ be a Zariski dense, geometrically finite, discrete subgroup with critical exponent strictly greater than $d/2$. We show that $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)$ admits a strong spectral…

Let $\Gamma$ be a graph. Under suitable geometric assumptions on $\Gamma$, we give several equivalent characterizations of Sobolev and Hardy-Sobolev spaces on $\Gamma$, in terms of maximal functionals, Haj{\l} asz type functionals or atomic…

The existence of two geometrically distinct closed geodesics on an $n$-dimensional sphere $S^n$ with a non-reversible and bumpy Finsler metric was shown independently by Duan--Long [7] and the author [27]. We simplify the proof of this…

The problem of the existence of an equi-partition of a curve in $\R^n$ has recently been raised in the context of computational geometry. The problem is to show that for a (continuous) curve $\Gamma : [0,1] \to \R^n$ and for any positive…

Divergence functions of a metric space estimate the length of a path connecting two points $A$, $B$ at distance $\le n$ avoiding a large enough ball around a third point $C$. We characterize groups with non-linear divergence functions as…
