Embedding of the brane metric into Euclidean (2+4)-space is found. Brane geometry can be visualized as the surface of the hyper-sphere in six dimensions which 'radius' is governed by the cosmological constant. Minkowski space in this…

Let $(M,g)$ be a $C^\infty$-smooth, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold which is diffeomorphic to $\RR^n$ and admit an action of a properly discontinuous and cocompact group. This work proves the existence of a $C^\infty$ equivariant…

Let $(M,d)$ be a bounded countable metric space and $c>0$ a constant, such that $d(x,y)+d(y,z)-d(x,z) \ge c$, for any pairwise distinct points $x,y,z$ of $M$. For such metric spaces we prove that they can be isometrically embedded into any…

In this paper, isometric embedding results of Greene, Gromov and Rokhlin are extended to what are called "indefinite metric polyhedra". Two definitions for an indefinite metric polyhedron are given, an intuitive definition and a more useful…

We study the geometric Whitney problem on how a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ can be constructed to approximate a metric space $(X,d_X)$. This problem is closely related to manifold reconstruction where a smooth $n$-dimensional submanifold…
