In this paper we develop methods to extend the minimal hypersurface approach to positive scalar curvature problems to all dimensions. This includes a proof of the positive mass theorem in all dimensions without a spin assumption. It also…
We define the compact universal cover of a compact, metrizable connected space (i.e. a continuum) X to be the inverse limit of all continua that regularly cover X. We show that such covers do indeed form an inverse system with bonding maps…
Let $M$ be a $2$-space form. Let $P$ be a convex polygon in $M$. For these polygons, we define (and justify) a curvature $\kappa_i$ at each vertex $A_i$ of the polygon and and prove the following Blaschke's type theorem: If $P$ is a convex…
In this paper, we study the anisotropic Minkowski problem. It is a problem of prescribing the anisotropic Gauss-Kronecker curvature for a closed strongly convex hypersurface in Euclidean space as a function on its anisotropic normals in…
A closure system with the anti-exchange axiom is called a convex geometry. One geometry is called a sub-geometry of the other if its closed sets form a sublattice in the lattice of closed sets of the other. We prove that convex geometries…
We use Reznick's Theorem for positive homogeneous polynomials to prove an elliptic regularity result for representations of enveloping algebras of Lie algebras. This allows us to relax a technical condition for a sum of squares…
We give an extension to a nonconvex setting of the classical radial representation result for lower semicontinuous envelope of a convex function on the boundary of its effective domain. We introduce the concept of radial uniform upper…
In this paper we examine different aspects of the geometry of closed conformal vector fields on Riemannian manifolds. We begin by getting obstructions to the existence of closed conformal and nonparallel vector fields on complete manifolds…
In this paper we study several aspects of the geometry of conformally stationary Lorentz manifolds, and particularly of GRW spaces, due to the presence of a closed conformal vector field. More precisely, we begin by extending to these…
We introduce a direct generalization of the Weinstein conjecture to closed, Lichnerowicz exact, locally conformally symplectic manifolds, (for short $\lcs$ manifolds). This conjectures existence of certain 2-curves in the manifold, which we…
We investigate star-covering properties of $\Psi$-like spaces. We show star-Lindel\"ofness is reflected by open perfect mappings. In addition, we offer a new equivalence of CH.
We show the geometric syzygy conjecture in positive characteristic. Specifically, if C is a general smooth curve of genus g defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p, then all linear syzygy spaces are spanned by…
We investigate generalized quadratic forms with values in the set of rational integers over quadratic fields. We characterize the real quadratic fields which admit a positive definite binary generalized form of this type representing every…
The notions of joint and outer spectral radii are extended to the setting of Hilbert $C^*$-bimodules. A Rota-Strang type characterisation is proved for the joint spectral radius. In this general setting, an approximation result for the…
We give a survey on the theory of representation-finite and certain minimal representation-infinite algebras.The main goals are the existence of multiplicative bases and of coverings with good properties. Both are attained via…
We discuss the notions of circumradius, inradius, diameter, and minimum width in generalized Minkowski spaces (that is, with respect to gauges), i.e., we measure the "size" of a given convex set in a finite-dimensional real vector space…
We continue to investigate various diagonalization properties for sequences of open covers of separable metrizable spaces introduced in Part I. These properties generalize classical ones of Rothberger, Menger, Hurewicz, and Gerlits-Nagy. In…
Comparison theorems are foundational to our understanding of the geometric features implied by various curvature constraints. This paper considers manifolds with a positive lower bound on either scalar, 2-Ricci, or Ricci curvature, and…
Covering numbers of convex bodies based on homothetical copies and related illumination numbers are well-known in combinatorial geometry and, for example, related to Hadwiger's famous covering problem. Similar numbers can be defined by…
We produce new upper and lower bounds for the s-Frobenius number by relating it to the so called s-covering radius of a certain convex body with respect to a certain lattice; this generalizes a well-known theorem of R. Kannan for the…
