Isotropic positive definite functions on spheres play important roles in spatial statistics, where they occur as the correlation functions of homogeneous random fields and star-shaped random particles. In approximation theory, strictly…

The first main result is a topological rigidity theorem for complete immersed hypersurfaces of spherical space forms which extends similar results due to do Carmo/Warner, Wang/Xia and Longa/Ripoll. Under certain sharp conditions on the…

Suppose that $F$ is a smooth and connected complex surface (not necessarily compact) containing a smooth rational curve with positive self-intersection. We prove that if there exists a non-constant meromorphic function on $F$, then the…

Here, a natural extension of Sobolev spaces is defined for a Finsler structure $F$ and it is shown that the set of all real $C^{\infty}$ functions with compact support on a forward geodesically complete Finsler manifold $(M, F)$, is dense…

John's fundamental theorem characterizing the largest volume ellipsoid contained in a convex body $K$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has seen several generalizations and extensions. One direction, initiated by V. Milman is to replace ellipsoids by…

Let $\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)$ be the space of Lipschitz functions on a complete metric space $(M,d)$ that vanish at a point $0\in M$. We investigate its dual $\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)^*$ using the de Leeuw transform, which allows representing each…

We analyze the relationship between Borel measures and continuous linear functionals on the space $\mathrm{Lip}_0(M)$ of Lipschitz functions on a complete metric space $M$. In particular, we describe continuous functionals arising from…

We prove partial regularity of stationary solutions and minimizers $u$ from a set $\Omega\subset \mathbb R^n$ to a Riemannian manifold $N$, for the functional $\int_\Omega F(x,u,|\nabla u|^2) dx$. The integrand $F$ is convex and satisfies…

In this paper, we study the (possible) solutions of the equation $\exp_{*}(f)=g$, where $g$ is a slice regular never vanishing function on a circular domain of the quaternions $\mathbb{H}$ and $\exp_{*}$ is the natural generalization of the…

Symmetry plays a basic role in variational problems (settled e.g. in $\mathbb R^{n}$ or in a more general manifold), for example to deal with the lack of compactness which naturally appear when the problem is invariant under the action of a…

We show the existence of the strong solutions of the Monge-Ampere equation for the log-concave measures without any regularity assumption. In particular the measures with density of the form $\exp -f$, where $f$ is an $H$-convex function…

Let $F$ be a $p$-adic field and let $G$ be a connected reductive group defined over $F$. We assume $p$ is big. Denote $\mathfrak{g}$ the Lie algebra of $G$. To each vertex $s$ of the reduced Bruhat-Tits' building of $G$, we associate as…

In 1966, P. G\"unther proved the following result: Given a continuous function $f$ on a compact surface $M$ of constant curvature -1 and its periodic lift $\tilde{f}$ to the universal covering, the hyperbolic plane, then the averages of the…

Whittaker functions are special functions that arise in $p$-adic number theory and representation theory. They may be defined on representations of reductive groups as well as their metaplectic covering groups: fascinatingly, many of their…

Let $P$ be a linear, second-order, elliptic operator with real coefficients defined on a noncompact Riemannian manifold $M$ and satisfies $P1=0$ in $M$. Assume further that $P$ admits a minimal positive Green function in $M$. We prove that…

In this work we present a new, natural, definition for the mean width of log-concave functions. We show that the new definition coincide with a previous one by B. Klartag and V. Milman, and deduce some properties of the mean width,…

For a class of symplectic manifolds, we introduce a functional which assigns a real number to any pair of continuous functions on the manifold. This functional has a number of interesting properties. On the one hand, it is Lipschitz with…

Riemannian Geometry, Topology and Dynamics permit to introduce partially defined holomorphic functions on the variety of representations of the fundamental group of a manifold. The functions we consider are the complex valued Ray-Singer…

For a mapping $f\colon X\to Y$ between metric spaces the function $\text{lip} f\colon X\to[0,\infty]$ defined by $\text{lip} f(x)=\liminf_{r\to0}\frac{\text{diam} f(B(x,r))}{r}$ is termed the lower scaled oscillation or little lip function.…
