We consider several geometric inequalities in general relativity involving mass, area, charge, and angular momentum for asymptotically hyperboloidal initial data. We show how to reduce each one to the known maximal (or time symmetric) case…
Let $f$ be an analytic function on the unit disc which is in the Dirichlet class, so the Euclidean area of the image, counting multiplicity, is finite. The Euclidean length of a radial arc of hyperbolic length $\rho$ is then $o(\rho^1/2)$.…
The "Perpendicular Bisectors Construction" is a natural way to seek a replacement for the circumcenter of a noncyclic quadrilateral in the plane. In this paper, we generalize this iterative construction to a construction on polytopes with…
In this paper, we introduce an asymmetric metric on the space of marked Euclidean triangles, and we prove several properties of this metric, including two equivalent definitions of this metric, one of them comparing ratios of functions of…
We prove a sharp logarithmic Sobolev inequality which holds for submanifolds in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension and codimension. Like the Michael-Simon Sobolev inequality, this inequality includes a term involving the mean curvature.
We prove weighted isoperimetric inequalities for smooth, bounded, and simply connected domains. More precisely, we show that the moment of inertia of inner parallel curves for domains with fixed perimeter attains its maximum for a disk.…
The main result is that every complete finite area hyperbolic metric on a sphere with punctures can be uniquely realized as the induced metric on the surface of a convex ideal polyhedron in hyperbolic 3-space. A number of other observations…
Consider the Poincare disc model for hyperbolic geometry. In this paper, a convenient computational formula is developed along with an aesthetic geometric interpretation. Two proofs, one geometric and one analytical, of each result are…
A hyperbolic polygon is defined to be cyclic, horocyclic, or equidistant if its vertices lie on a metric circle, horocycle, or a component of the equidistant locus to a hyperbolic geodesic, respectively. Convex such $n$-gons are…
We begin by studying the surface area of an ellipsoid in n-dimensional Euclidean space as the function of the lengths of the semi-axes. We write down an explicit formula as an integral over the unit sphere in n-dimensions and use this…
We prove general theorems for isoperimetric problems on lattices of the form ${\mathbb{Z}}^{k} \times {\mathbb{N}}^{d}$ which state that the perimeter of the optimal set is a monotonically increasing function of the volume under certain…
In this paper we consider the isoperimetric problem with double density in an Euclidean space, that is, we study the minimisation of the perimeter among subsets of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with fixed volume, where volume and perimeter are relative to…
We prove that if a proper metric space is quasi-isometric to a finitely generated group and to a space with a horoball over a finitely generated group, then that space is quasi-isometric to a rank-one symmetric space or the real line.
In this paper we study the quantitative isoperimetric inequality in the plane. We prove the existence of a set $\Omega$, different from a ball, which minimizes the ratio $\delta(\Omega)/\lambda^2(\Omega)$, where $\delta$ is the…
The Euclidean concentration inequality states that, among sets with fixed volume, balls have $r$-neighborhoods of minimal volume for every $r>0$. On an arbitrary set, the deviation of this volume growth from that of a ball is shown to…
A polygon is \textit{small} if it has unit diameter. The maximal area of a small polygon with a fixed number of sides $n$ is not known when $n$ is even and $n\geq14$. We determine an improved lower bound for the maximal area of a small…
We give three new proofs of the triangle inequality in Euclidean Geometry. There seems to be only one known proof at the moment. It is due to properties of triangles, but our proofs are due to circles or ellipses. We aim to prove the…
We classify the volume preserving stable hypersurfaces in the real projective space $\mathbb{RP}^n$. As a consequence, the solutions of the isoperimetric problem are tubular neighborhoods of projective subspaces $\mathbb{RP}^k\subset…
We establish some characterizations of elliptic hyperboloids (resp., ellipsoids) in the $(n+1)$-dimensional Euclidean space ${\Bbb E}^{n+1}$, using the $n$-dimensional area of the sections cut off by hyperplanes and the $(n+1)$-dimensional…
A simple $n$-gon is a polygon with $n$ edges with each vertex belonging to exactly two edges and every other point belonging to at most one edge. Brass asked the following question: For $n \geq 5$ odd, what is the maximum perimeter of a…
