In this paper we obtain an analogue of Toponogov theorem in dimension 3 for compact manifolds $M^3$ with nonnegative Ricci curvature and strictly convex boundary $\partial M$. Here we obtain a sharp upper bound for the length…
A theorem of W. Derrick ensures that the volume of any Riemannian cube $([0,1]^n,g)$ is bounded below by the product of the distances between opposite codimension-1 faces. In this paper, we establish a discrete analog of Derrick's…
Let U be the complement of a smooth anticanonical divisor in a del Pezzo surface of degree at most 7 over a number field k. We show that there is an effective uniform bound for the size of the Brauer group of U in terms of the degree of k.
The Hayman-Wu theorem states that the preimage of a line or circle L under a conformal mapping from the unit disc to a simply-connected domain U has total Euclidean length bounded by an absolute constant. The best possible constant is known…
We improve by an exponential factor the best known asymptotic upper bound for the density of sets avoiding 1 in Euclidean space. This result is obtained by a combination of an analytic bound that is an analogue of Lovasz theta number and of…
We derive upper and lower bounds on the sum of distances of a spherical code of size $N$ in $n$ dimensions when $N\sim n^\alpha, 0<\alpha\le 2.$ The bounds are derived by specializing recent general, universal bounds on energy of spherical…
We establish general bounds on the topology of free boundary minimal surfaces obtained via min-max methods in compact, three-dimensional ambient manifolds with mean convex boundary. We prove that the first Betti number is lower…
In this paper we prove that a flat free-boundary minimal $n$-disk, $n\geq3$, in the unit Euclidean ball $B^{n+1}$ is the unique compact free boundary minimal hypersurface in the unit Euclidean ball which the squared norm of the second…
It is known that the surface of a cone over the unit disc with large height has smaller distortion than the standard embedding of the 2-sphere in $\mathbb R^3$. In this note we show that distortion minimisers exist among convex embedded…
In this article, we study a free boundary isometric embedding problem for abstract Riemannian two-manifolds with the topology of the disc. Under the assumption of positive Gauss curvature and geodesic curvature of the boundary being equal…
We present a constructive lower bound of $\Omega(1/\sqrt{\varepsilon})$ for Frank-Wolfe (FW) when both the objective and the constraint set are smooth and strongly convex, showing that the known uniform $\mathcal{O}(1/\sqrt{\varepsilon})$…
A simple n-gon is a polygon with n edges such that each vertex belongs to exactly two edges and every other point belongs to at most one edge. Brass, Moser and Pach asked the following question: For n > 3 odd, what is the maximum perimeter…
We prove that the area of a free boundary minimal surface $\Sigma^2 \subset B^n$, where $B^n$ is a geodesic ball contained in a round hemisphere $\mathbb{S}^n_+$, is at least as big as that of a geodesic disk with the same radius as $B^n$;…
We construct a subset $A$ of the unit disc with the following properties. (i) The set $A$ is the finite union of disjoint line segments. (ii) The shadow of $A$ is arbitrarily close to the shadow of the unit disc in "most" directions. (iii)…
We are given a set of weighted unit disks and a set of points in Euclidean plane. The minimum weight unit disk cover (\UDC) problem asks for a subset of disks of minimum total weight that covers all given points. \UDC\ is one of the…

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 $o(\rho^1/2)$.…

We study the simplex method over polyhedra satisfying certain "discrete curvature" lower bounds, which enforce that the boundary always meets vertices at sharp angles. Motivated by linear programs with totally unimodular constraint…
