We prove that every mod 2 integral cycle $T$ in a Riemannian manifold $\mathcal{M}$ can be approximated in flat norm by a cycle which is a smooth submanifold $\Sigma$ of nearly the same area, up to a singular set of codimension 3; in…
If a continuous map f: X->Q is approximable arbitrary closely by embeddings X->Q, can some embedding be taken onto f by a pseudo-isotopy? This question, called Isotopic Realization Problem, was raised by Shchepin and Akhmet'ev. We consider…
We prove that every smoothly immersed 2-torus of $\mathbb{R}^4$ can be approximated, in the C0-sense, by immersed polyhedral Lagrangian tori. In the case of a smoothly immersed (resp. embedded) Lagrangian torus of $\mathbb{R}^4$, the…
It is proved that any smooth manifold $\mathcal M$ of dimension $m$ admits a smooth polynomially convex embedding into $\mathbb C^n$ when $n\geq \lfloor 5m/4\rfloor$. Further, such embeddings are dense in the space of smooth maps from…
In this work we characterize the subsets of ${\mathbb R}^n$ that are images of Nash maps $f:{\mathbb R}^m\to{\mathbb R}^n$. We prove Shiota's conjecture and show that a subset ${\mathcal S}\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ is the image of a Nash map…
Following Ghomi and Tabachnikov we study topological obstructions to totally skew embeddings of a smooth manifold M in Euclidean spaces. This problem is naturally related to the question of estimating the geometric dimension of the stable…
We will describe some results regarding the algorithmic nature of homeomorphism problems for manifolds; in particular, the following theorem. Theorem 1: Every PL or smooth simply connected manifold M^n of dimension n at least 5 can be…
The manifold hypothesis says that natural high-dimensional data lie on or around a low-dimensional manifold. The recent success of statistical and learning-based methods in very high dimensions empirically supports this hypothesis,…
The Whitney embedding theorem gives an upper bound on the smallest embedding dimension of a manifold. If a data set lies on a manifold, a random projection into this reduced dimension will retain the manifold structure. Here we present an…
We consider a complete nonnegative biminimal submanifold M (that is, a complete biminimal submanifold with lambda>=0) in a Euclidean space E^N. Assume that the immersion is proper, that is, the preimage of every compact set in E^N is also…
Let $T\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ be a semialgebraic set and let $\mu\ge0$ be a non-negative integer. We say that $T$ is a {\em Nash $\mu$-approximation target space} (or a $({\mathcal N},\mu)$-${\tt ats}$ for short) if it has the following…
Let $f\colon M^{2n}\to\mathbb{R}^{2n+\ell}$, $n \geq 5$, denote a conformal immersion into Euclidean space with codimension $\ell$ of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $n$ and free of flat points. For codimensions $\ell=1,2$ we show…
In this paper, we study the weighted $n$-dimensional badly approximable points on manifolds. Given a $C^n$ differentiable non-degenerate submanifold $\mathcal{U} \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we will show that any countable intersection of the…
The purpose of this paper is to present, for all $n\ge 3$, very simple examples of continuous maps $f:M^{n-1} \to M^{n}$ from closed $(n-1)$-manifolds $M^{n-1}$ into closed $n$-manifold $M^n$ such that even though the singular set $S(f)$ of…
Let $(M^n, g)$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold with nonpositive bisectional curvature. We show that a finite cover is biholomorphic and isometric to a flat torus bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold $N^k$ with $c_1 < 0$. This confirms a…
We consider a complete biharmonic immersed submanifold $M$ in an Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^N$. Assume that the immersion is proper, that is, the preimage of every compact set in $\mathbb{E}^N$ is also compact in $M$. Then, we prove that…
Let $Y\subset{\mathbb R}^n$ be a triangulable set and let $r$ be either a positive integer or $r=\infty$. We say that $Y$ is a $\mathscr{C}^r$-approximation target space, or a $\mathscr{C}^r\text{-}\mathtt{ats}$ for short, if it has the…
Pach showed that every $d+1$ sets of points $Q_1,\dotsc,Q_{d+1} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ contain linearly-sized subsets $P_i\subset Q_i$ such that all the transversal simplices that they span intersect. We show, by means of an example, that a…
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 a rigidity theorem in Poisson geometry around compact Poisson submanifolds, using the Nash-Moser fast convergence method. In the case of one-point submanifolds (fixed points), this immediately implies a stronger version of Conn's…
