We study the problem of constructing $C^{1,\theta}$ isometric immersions of Riemannian metrics on $n$-dimensional domains into $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$. While the classical Nash--Kuiper theorem established the flexibility of $C^1$ isometries,…

We prove that, given a $C^2$ Riemannian metric $g$ on the $2$-dimensional disk $D_2$, any short $C^1$ immersion of $(D_2,g)$ into $\mathbb R^3$ can be uniformly approximated with $C^{1,\alpha}$ isometric immersions for any $\alpha <…

In this paper we study the embedding of Riemannian manifolds in low codimension. The well-known result of Nash and Kuiper says that any short embedding in codimension one can be uniformly approximated by $C^1$ isometric embeddings. This…

The Nash-Kuiper Theorem states that the collection of $C^1$-isometric embeddings from a Riemannian manifold $M^n$ into $\mathbb{E}^N$ is $C^0$-dense within the collection of all smooth 1-Lipschitz embeddings provided that $n < N$. This…

In this paper, we obtain the following generalisation of isometric $C^1$-immersion theorem of Nash and Kuiper. Let $M$ be a smooth manifold of dimension $m$ and $H$ a rank $k$ subbundle of the tangent bundle $TM$ with a Riemannian metric…

We prove a version of Whitney's strong embedding theorem for isometric embeddings within the general setting of the Nash-Kuiper h-principle. More precisely, we show that any $n$-dimensional smooth compact manifold admits infinitely many…

We use a new method to give conditions for the existence of a local isometric immersion of a Riemannian $n$-manifold $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^{n+k}$, for a given $n$ and $k$. These equate to the (local) existence of a $k$-tuple of scalar fields…

We obtain global extensions of the celebrated Nash-Kuiper theorem for $C^{1,\theta}$ isometric immersions of compact manifolds with optimal H\"older exponent. In particular for the Weyl problem of isometrically embedding a convex compact…

We consider isometric immersions of complete connected Riemannian manifolds into space forms of nonzero constant curvature. We prove that if such an immersion is compact and has semi-definite second fundamental form, then it is an embedding…

Although the Nash theorem solves the isometric embedding problem, matters are inherently more involved if one is further seeking an embedding that is well-behaved from the standpoint of submanifold geometry. More generally, consider a…

Manifold learning has been proven to be an effective method for capturing the implicitly intrinsic structure of non-Euclidean data, in which one of the primary challenges is how to maintain the distortion-free (isometry) of the data…

The celebrated Nash Embedding Theorem asserts that every closed Riemannian manifold can be isometrically embedded into a sufficiently high-dimensional Euclidean space. In this paper, we prove an analogous result in the conformally compact…
