In this short paper we show a sufficient condition for the solvability of the Dirichlet problem at infinity in Riemannian cones (as defined below).This condition is related to a celebrated result of Milnor that classifies parabolic…

Building on Whitney's classical method of triangulating smooth manifolds, we show that every compact $d$-dimensional smooth manifold admits a triangulation with dual graph of twin-width at most $d^{O(d)}$. In particular, it follows that…

Manifold reconstruction has been extensively studied for the last decade or so, especially in two and three dimensions. Recently, significant improvements were made in higher dimensions, leading to new methods to reconstruct large classes…

Let $M, N$ the be smooth manifolds, $\mathcal{C}^{r}(M,N)$ the space of ${C}^{r}$ maps endowed with weak $C^{r}$ Whitney topology, and $\mathcal{B} \subset \mathcal{C}^{r}(M,N)$ an open subset. It is proved that for $0\leq r<s\leq\infty$…

We prove Cheeger-Gromov convergence for a subsequence of a given sequence of manifolds-with-boundary of bounded geometry. The method of the proof is to reduce, via height functions, the problem to the setting of Hamilton's compactnes…

Whitney's extension problem, i.e., how one can tell whether a function $f : X \to \mathbb R$, $X \subseteq \mathbb R^n$, is the restriction of a $C^m$-function on $\mathbb R^n$, was solved in full generality by Charles Fefferman in 2006. In…

Relying on a recent criterion, due to A.~Petrunin [18], to check if a complete, non-compact, Riemannian manifold admits an isometric embedding into a Euclidean space with positive reach, we extend to manifolds with such property the…

Let $X=C[0,1]$, and $Y$ be an arbitrary Banach space. Consider a collection of open segments $\{V_i \}\subset X$. Suppose the map $f: \cup_i V_i \to Y$ has $q$ bounded Fr\'echet derivatives ($q=0,1,...,\infty$), and $f$ and all its…

We characterize which mappings from a compact subset of $\mathbb{R}$ into the Heisenberg group can be extended to a $C^{m,\omega}$ horizontal curve for a given modulus of continuity $\omega$. We motivate our characterization by showing that…
