In this work we consider a question in the calculus of variations motivated by riemannian geometry, the isoperimetric problem. We show that solutions to the isoperimetric problem, close in the flat norm to a smooth submanifold, are…

We establish conditions for a continuous map of nonzero degree between a smooth closed manifold and a negatively curved manifold of dimension greater than four to be homotopic to a smooth cover, and in particular a diffeomorphism when the…

The existence of quasimorphisms on groups of homeomorphisms of manifolds has been extensively studied under various regularity conditions, such as smooth, volume-preserving, and symplectic. However, in this context, nothing is known about…

This paper studies the local stable and unstable manifolds of equilibria for quasilinear and fully nonlinear PDEs. These manifolds are fundamental objects in the analysis of local dynamics. While their existence is well understood for ODEs,…

In this paper, we extend the celebrated global regularity theory of Naber-Valtorta [Ann. Math. 2017] to 1/2-harmonic mappings into manifolds. Inspired by their work, we first adapt Lin's defect measure theory [Ann. Math. 1999] to such maps…

The Assouad and lower dimensions and dimension spectra quantify the regularity of a measure by considering the relative measure of concentric balls. On the other hand, one can quantify the smoothness of an absolutely continuous measure by…

We present and analyze rigorously a quadratically convergent algorithm to compute an invariant circle for 2-dimensional maps along with the corresponding foliation by stable manifolds. We prove that when the algorithm starts from an initial…

We revisit the subject of perturbatively quantizing the nonlinear sigma model in two dimensions from a rigorous, mathematical point of view. Our main contribution is to make precise the cohomological problem of eliminating potential…

Quasiconformal maps in the complex plane are homeomorphisms that satisfy certain geometric distortion inequalities; infinitesimally, they map circles to ellipses with bounded eccentricity. The local distortion properties of these maps give…
