About a decade ago Thurston proved that a vast collection of 3-manifolds carry metrics of constant negative curvature. These manifolds are thus elements of {\em hyperbolic geometry}, as natural as Euclid's regular polyhedra. For a closed…

Metric embeddings into structured spaces, particularly hierarchically well-separated trees (HSTs), are a fundamental tool in the design of online algorithms. In the classical online embedding setting, points arrive sequentially and must be…

We show that, for a separable and complete metric space $M$, the Lipschitz-free space $\mathcal F(M)$ embeds linearly and almost-isometrically into $\ell_1$ if and only if $M$ is a subset of an $\mathbb R$-tree with length measure 0.…

In this paper, we introduce a class of fractals named homogeneous sets based on some measure versions of homogeneity, uniform perfectness and doubling. This fractal class includes all Ahlfors-David regular sets, but most of them are…

We show that compact Riemannian manifolds, regarded as metric spaces with their global geodesic distance, cannot contain a number of rigid structures such as (a) arbitrarily large regular simplices or (b) arbitrarily long sequences of…

We give a new proof for the local existence of a smooth isometric embedding of a smooth $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with nonzero Riemannian curvature tensor into $6$-dimensional Euclidean space. Our proof avoids the sophisticated…

Given a Banach space $X$ and a real number $\alpha\ge 1$, we write: (1) $D(X)\le\alpha$ if, for any locally finite metric space $A$, all finite subsets of which admit bilipschitz embeddings into $X$ with distortions $\le C$, the space $A$…

We study generalizations of classical metric embedding results to the case of quasimetric spaces; that is, spaces that do not necessarily satisfy symmetry. Quasimetric spaces arise naturally from the shortest-path distances on directed…

A graph is called (generically) rigid in R^d if, for any choice of sufficiently generic edge lengths, it can be embedded in R^d in a finite number of distinct ways, modulo rigid transformations. Here, we deal with the problem of determining…

We present a numerical method for solving Weyl's embedding problem which consists of finding a global isometric embedding of a positively curved and positive-definite spherical 2-metric into the Euclidean three space. The method is based on…

Consider the sum of the first $N$ eigenspaces for the Laplacian on a Riemannian manifold. A basis for this space determines a map to Euclidean space and for $N$ sufficiently large the map is an embedding. In analogy with a fruitful idea of…

We show that, for all $\alpha\geq 0$, the generalized Grushin plane $\mathbb{G}_{\alpha}$ is bi-Lipschitz homeomorphic to a $2$-dimensional quasiplane in the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{[\alpha ]+2}$, where $[\alpha]$ is the integer part…

The isometric embedding problem for Riemannian manifolds, which connects intrinsic and extrinsic geometry, is a central question in differential geometry with deep theoretical significance and wide-ranging applications. Despite extensive…

We study trapped surfaces from the point of view of local isometric embedding into three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. When a two-surface is embedded into three-dimensional Euclidean space, the problem of finding all surfaces applicable…

The main purpose of the paper is to prove the following results: Let $A$ be a locally finite metric space whose finite subsets admit uniformly bilipschitz embeddings into a Banach space $X$. Then $A$ admits a bilipschitz embedding into $X$.…

We show that a uniformly acute triangulation of the plane is rigid under Luo's discrete conformal change, extending previous results on hexagonal triangulations. Our result is a discrete analogue of the conformal rigidity of the plane. We…

For real projective spaces, (a) the Euclidean immersion dimension, (b) the existence of axial maps, and (c) the topological complexity are known to be three facets of the same problem. But when it comes to embedding dimension, the classical…

We study the a.s. convergence of a sequence of random embeddings of a fixed manifold into Euclidean spaces of increasing dimensions. We show that the limit is deterministic. As a consequence, we show that many intrinsic functionals of the…

The Lipschitz geometry of segments of the infinite Hamming cube is studied. Tight estimates on the distortion necessary to embed the segments into spaces of continuous functions on countable compact metric spaces are given. As an…

A well-known open problem asks whether every bi-Lipschitz homeomorphism of $\mathbb{R}^d$ factors as a composition of mappings of small distortion. We show that every bi-Lipschitz embedding of the unit cube $[0,1]^d$ into $\mathbb{R}^d$…
