We study the fluid-mediated approach of a deformable axisymmetric object towards a rigid substrate, focusing on how its shape influences contact formation. For low approach velocities and large Stokes numbers, we show that sharper profiles…

We develop the notion of higher Cheeger constants for a measurable set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^N$. By the $k$-th Cheeger constant we mean the value \[h_k(\Omega) = \inf \max \{h_1(E_1), \dots, h_1(E_k)\},\] where the infimum is taken…
We study Riemannian manifolds with boundary under a lower Ricci curvature bound, and a lower mean curvature bound for the boundary. We prove a volume comparison theorem of Bishop-Gromov type concerning the volumes of the metric…
We establich quantitative stability estimates for the Trudinger-Moser inequality on smooth, bounded domains in the Euclidean plane. More specifically, we prove that the deficit in the Trudinger-Moser inequality quadratically controls the…

The purpose of this note is to provide a summary of the recent work of the authors on two variations of the pointwise convergence problem for the solutions to the fractional Schr\"odinger equations; convergence along a tangential line and…
In this paper we introduce a class of polygonal complexes for which we can define a notion of sectional combinatorial curvature. These complexes can be viewed as generalizations of 2-dimensional Euclidean and hyperbolic buildings. We focus…
The Cheeger constant of a graph is the smallest possible ratio between the size of a subgraph and the size of its boundary. It is well known that this constant must be at least $\frac{\lambda_1}{2}$, where $\lambda_1$ is the smallest…
We show that any two geometric triangulations of a closed hyperbolic, spherical or Euclidean manifold are related by a sequence of Pachner moves and barycentric subdivisions of bounded length. This bound is in terms of the dimension of the…
The Cheeger constant of a graph, or equivalently its coboundary expansion, quantifies the expansion of the graph. This notion assumes an implicit choice of a coefficient group, namely, $\mathbb{F}_2$. In this paper, we study Cheeger-type…
