Given a combinatorial description $C$ of a polyhedron having $E$ edges, the space of dihedral angles of all compact hyperbolic polyhedra that realize $C$ is generally not a convex subset of $\mathbb{R}^E$ \cite{DIAZ}. If $C$ has five or…

It is shown that every even, zonal measure on the Euclidean unit sphere gives rise to an isoperimetric inequality for sets of finite perimeter which directly implies the classical Euclidean isoperimetric inequality. The strongest member of…

We show that 3-dimensional polyhedral manifolds with nonnegative curvature in the sense of Alexandrov can be approximated by nonnegatively curved 3-dimensional Riemannian manifolds.

Let $S$ be an integral domain with field of fractions $F$ and let $A$ be an $F$-algebra. An $S$-subalgebra $R$ of $A$ is called $S$-nice if $R$ is lying over $S$ and the localization of $R$ with respect to $S \setminus \{ 0 \}$ is $A$. Let…

In this paper we introduce, by means of the category of exterior spaces and using a process that generalizes the Alexandroff compactification, an analogue notion of numerable covering of a space in the proper and exterior setting. An…

We have proved that homeomorphisms of domains of Euclidean space, inverse of which distort the modulus of families of curves by Poletskii type, have a continuous extension to isolated boundary point.

Under an infinitesimal version of the Bishop-Gromov relative volume comparison condition for a measure on an Alexandrov space, we prove a topological splitting theorem of Cheeger-Gromoll type. As a corollary, we prove an isometric splitting…

We introduce topological definitions of expansivity, shadowing, and chain recurrence for homeomorphisms. They generalize the usual definitions for metric spaces. We prove various theorems about topologically Anosov homeomorphisms (maps that…

Classical H.Minkowski theorems on existence and uniqueness of convex polyhedra with prescribed directions and areas of faces as well as the well-known generalization of H.Minkowski uniqueness theorem due to A.D.Alexandrov are extended to a…

In the following text we show that the Alexandroff space $X$ is uniformizable if and only if the collection of all smallest neighbourhoods is a partition of $X$. Moreover the Alexandroff space $X$ is uniformizable and functional Alexandroff…

We have studied homeomorphisms that satisfy the Poletsky-type inverse inequality in the domain of the Euclidean space. It is proved that the uniform limit of the family of such homeomorphisms is either a homeomorphism into the Euclidean…

We prove that the boundary of an orbit space or more generally a leaf space of a singular Riemannian foliation is an Alexandrov space in its intrinsic metric, and that its lower curvature bound is that of the leaf space. A rigidity theorem…

In this note we will discuss a potentially interesting extension of some recent results on primitive solutions to completely integrable partial differential equations. We will discuss a family distributions that are holomorphic on the…

Abstract. In this paper we prove several rigidity theorems related to and including Lytchak's problem. The focus is on Alexandrov spaces with \curv\geq1, nonempty boundary, and maximal radius \frac{\pi}{2}. We exhibit many such spaces that…

We introduce the class of almost symmetric submanifolds of Euclidean space, a close relative of symmetric submanifolds and (contact) sub-Riemannian symmetric spaces. More specifically, we prove that every full irreducible almost symmetric…

The classical Minkowski formula is extended to spacelike codimension-two submanifolds in spacetimes which admit "hidden symmetry" from conformal Killing-Yano two-forms. As an application, we obtain an Alexandrov type theorem for spacelike…

We study submetries between Alexandrov spaces and show how some of the usual features of Riemannian submersions fail due to the lack of smoothness.

We prove that a space whose topological complexity equals 1 is homotopy equivalent to some odd-dimensional sphere. We prove a similar result, although not in complete generality, for spaces X whose higher topological complexity TC_n(X) is…

In this article we provide a classification of the projective transformations in $PSL(n+1,\Bbb{C})$ considered as automorphisms of the complex projective space $\Bbb{P}^n$. Our classification is an interplay between algebra and dynamics,…

The space of orientation-compatible almost complex structures on the six-dimensional sphere naturally contains a copy of seven-dimensional real projective space. We show that the inclusion induces an isomorphism on fundamental groups and…
