This paper describes the theory of Minkowski problems for geometric measures in convex geometric analysis. The theory goes back to Minkowski and Aleksandrov and has been developed extensively in recent years. The paper surveys classical and…
Physical reasons suggested in \cite{Ha-Ha} for the \emph{Quantum Gravity Problem} lead us to study \emph{type-changing metrics} on a manifold. The most interesting cases are \emph{Transverse Riemann-Lorentz Manifolds}. Here we study the…
We give a complete solution of a problem in submanifold theory posed and partially solved by the eminent algebraic geometer Pierre Samuel in 1947. Namely, to determine all pairs of immersions of a given manifold into Euclidean space that…

We relate $L^p$ convergence of metric tensors or volume convergence to a given smooth metric to Intrinsic Flat and Gromov-Hausdorff convergence for sequences of Riemannian manifolds. We present many examples of sequences of conformal…
This monograph is the core of my book "Elliptic PDEs, Measures and Capacities: From the Poisson equation to Nonlinear Thomas-Fermi Problems" which has received the 2014 EMS Monograph Award and is available in the series EMS Tracts in…
Recently, Taneja studied two one parameter generalizations of J-divergence, Jensen-Shannon divergence and Arithmetic-Geometric divergence. These two generalizations in particular contain measures like: Hellinger discrimination, symmetric…
This book provides a self-contained introduction to the topology and geometry of surfaces and three-manifolds. The main goal is to describe Thurston's geometrisation of three-manifolds, proved by Perelman in 2002. The book is divided into…
In this survey, 37 questions on point-countable covers and sequence-covering mappings are listed, in which some of these questions have been answered. These questions are mainly related to the theory of generalized metric spaces, involving…
This extended preface [to the Book `Bayesian Nonparametrics', Cambridge University Press, 2010, by NL Hjort, CC Holmes, P Mueller, SG Walker] is meant to explain why you are right to be curious about Bayesian nonparametrics -- why you may…
We introduce a geometry on the cone of positive closed currents of bidegree (p,p) and apply it to define the intersection of such currents. We also construct and study the Green currents and the equilibrium measure for horizontal-like…
We give a complete list of normal forms for the 2-dimensional metrics that admit a transitive Lie pseudogroup of geodesic-preserving transformations and we show that these normal forms are mutually non-isometric. This solves a problem posed…
In the present article the geometry of semi-Riemannian manifolds with nonholonomic constraints is studied. These manifolds can be considered as analogues to the sub-Riemannian manifolds, where the positively definite metric is substituted…
We solve the problem of best approximation by partial isometries of given rank to an arbitrary rectangular matrix, when the distance is measured in any unitarily invariant norm. In the case where the norm is strictly convex, we parametrize…
We consider extensions of quasiconformal maps and the uniformization theorem to the setting of metric spaces $X$ homeomorphic to $\mathbb R^2$. Given a measure $\mu$ on such a space, we introduce $\mu$-quasiconformal maps $f:X \to \mathbb…
This is a preliminary investigation of the geometry and dynamics of rational maps with only two critical points. (originally titled ``On Bicritical Rational Maps'' in September 1997; revised and retitled April 1999)
In this paper, as a result of a theorem of Serre on congruence properties, a complete solution is given for an open question (see the text) presented recently by Kim, Koo and Park. Some further questions and results on similar types of…
The HOM-problem, which asks whether the image of a regular tree language under a tree homomorphism is again regular, is known to be decidable. Since then, weighted versions of this problem for different semirings have also been…
This is a sequel to the survey given by the author in Surveys in Differential Geometry Vol. 6 in 1999. The present survey covers selected developments since 1999 to 2011 dealing with the construction of Einstein metrics on bundles and…
We review the special geometry of N = 2 supersymmetric vector and hypermultiplets with emphasis on recent developments and applications. A new formulation of the local c-map based on the Hesse potential and special real coordinates is…
