We prove that the metric balls of a Hilbert geometry admit a volume growth at least polynomial of degree their dimension. We also characterise the convex polytopes as those having exactly polynomial volume growth of degree their dimension.

We provide upper bounds on the size of the homology of a closed aspherical Riemannian manifold that only depend on the systole and the volume of balls. Further, we show that linear growth of mod p Betti numbers or exponential growth of…

We consider harmonic functions of polynomial growth of some order $d$ on Cayley graphs of groups of polynomial volume growth of order $D$ w.r.t. the word metric and prove the optimal estimate for the dimension of the space of such harmonic…

We give lower bounds for the growth of the number of Reeb chords and for the volume growth of Reeb flows on spherizations over closed manifolds M that are not of finite type, have virtually polycyclic fundamental group, and satisfy a mild…

We study the geometry of horospheres in Teichm\"uller space of Riemann surfaces of genus g with n punctures, where $3g-3+n\geq 2$. We show that every $C^1$-diffeomorphism of Teichm\"uller space to itself that preserves horospheres is an…

Let $(X,d)$ be an $n$-dimensional Alexandrov space whose Hausdorff measure $\mathcal{H}^n$ satisfies a condition giving the metric measure space $(X,d,\mathcal{H}^n)$ a notion of having nonnegative Ricci curvature. We examine the influence…

We show that set of points nondense under the $\times n$-map on the circle and dense for the geodesic flow under the induced map on the circle corresponding to the expanding horospherical subgroup has full Haudorff dimension. We also show…

Suppose $(M^{n},g)$ is a Riemannian manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, and let $h_{d}(M)$ be the dimension of the space of harmonic functions with polynomial growth of growth order at most $d$. Colding and Minicozzi proved that…

A a Heintze group is a Lie group of the form $N\rtimes_\alpha \mathbb{R}$, where $N$ is a simply connected nilpotent Lie group and $\alpha$ is a derivation of $\mathrm{Lie}(N)$ whose eigenvalues all have positive real parts. We show that if…

We study the volume growth of hyperkaehler manifolds of type $A_{\infty}$ constructed by Anderson-Kronheimer-LeBrun and Goto. These are noncompact complete 4-dimensional hyperkaehler manifolds of infinite topological type. These manifolds…

Let $X=G/K$ be a symmetric space of noncompact type and rank $k\ge 2$. We prove that horospheres in $X$ are Lipschitz $(k-2)$--connected if their centers are not contained in a proper join factor of the spherical building of $X$ at…

We approach the quasi-isometric classification questions on Lie groups by considering low dimensional cases and isometries alongside quasi-isometries. First, we present some new results related to quasi-isometries between Heintze groups.…

We examine topological properties of pointed metric measure spaces $(Y, p)$ that can be realized as the pointed Gromov-Hausdorff limit of a sequence of complete, Riemannian manifolds $\{(M^n_i, p_i)\}_{i=1}^{\infty}$ with nonnegative Ricci…

We survey the Hilbert geometry of convex polytopes. In particular we present two important characterisations of these geometries, the first one in terms of the volume growth of their metric balls, the second one as a bi-lipschitz class of…

The filling volume functions of the n-th quaternionic Heisenberg group grow, up to dimension n, as fast as the ones of the Euclidean space. We identify the growth rate of the filling volume function in dimension n+1, which is strictly…

We use Busemann functions to construct volume preserving mappings in an asymptotically harmonic manifold. If the asymptotically harmonic manifold satisfies the visibility condition, we construct mappings which preserve distances in some…

In this article, we provide some volume growth estimates for complete noncompact gradient Ricci solitons and quasi-Einstein manifolds similar to the classical results by Bishop, Calabi and Yau for complete Riemannian manifolds with…

The Dehn function and its higher-dimensional generalizations measure the difficulty of filling a sphere in a space by a ball. In nonpositively curved spaces, one can construct fillings using geodesics, but fillings become more complicated…

Consider a stationary Poisson process of horospheres in a $d$-dimensional hyperbolic space. In the focus of this note is the total surface area these random horospheres induce in a sequence of balls of growing radius $R$. The main result is…

We study the volume growth of metric balls as a function of the radius in discrete spaces, and focus on the relationship between volume growth and discrete curvature. We improve volume growth bounds under a lower bound on the so-called…
