In this article, we investigate the volume comparison with respect to scalar curvature. In particular, we show volume comparison holds for small geodesic balls of metrics near a V-static metric. For closed manifold, we prove the volume…

We prove hyperbolic 3-manifolds are geometrically inflexible: a unit quasiconformal deformation of a Kleinian group extends to an equivariant bi-Lipschitz diffeomorphism between quotients whose pointwise bi-Lipschitz constant decays…

We consider the following generalisation of a well-known problem in Riemannian geometry: When is a smooth real-valued function s on a given compact n-dimensional manifold M (with or without boundary) the scalar curvature of some smooth…

Motivated by a classical comparison result of J. C. F. Sturm we introduce a curvature-dimension condition CD(k,N) for general metric measure spaces and variable lower curvature bound k. In the case of non-zero constant lower curvature our…

We prove that if $(X,\mathsf{d},\mathfrak{m})$ is a metric measure space with $\mathfrak{m}(X)=1$ having (in a synthetic sense) Ricci curvature bounded from below by $K>0$ and dimension bounded above by $N\in [1,\infty)$, then the classic…

Sectional curvature bounds are of central importance in the study of Riemannian manifolds, both in smooth differential geometry and in the generalized synthetic setting of Alexandrov spaces. Riemannian metrics along with metric spaces of…

We characterize model theoretic properties of the Urysohn sphere as a metric structure in continuous logic. In particular, our first main result shows that the theory of the Urysohn sphere is $\text{SOP}_n$ for all $n\geq 3$, but does not…

Let $M$ be a closed $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with positive scalar curvature, $R_g \geq 6$. We show that $M$ contains a non-trivial closed geodesic of length less than $22500$. This confirms a conjecture of M. Gromov in dimension…
