Coarse geometry studies metric spaces on the large scale. Our goal here is to study dynamics from a coarse point of view. To this end we introduce a coarse version of topological entropy, suitable for unbounded metric spaces, consistent…

We investigate local and metric geometry of weighted Carnot-Carath\'eodory spaces which are a wide generalization of sub-Riemannian manifolds and arise in nonlinear control theory, subelliptic equations etc. For such spaces the intrinsic…

We consider various notions of Mayer--Vietoris squares in algebraic geometry. We use these to generalize a number of gluing and pushout results of Moret-Bailly, Ferrand--Raynaud, Joyet and Bhatt. An important intermediate step is Gabber's…

Given a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ with a lower Ricci curvature bound, we consider barycenters in the Wasserstein space $\mathcal{W}_2(M)$ of probability measures on $M$. We refer to them as Wasserstein barycenters, which by…

In this survey article, we discuss some recent progress on geometric analysis on manifold with ends. In the final section, we construct manifolds with ends with oscillating volume functions which may turn out to have a different heat kernel…

A characterization is presented of barycenters of the Radon probability measures supported on a closed convex subset of a given space. A case of particular interest is studied, where the underlying space is itself the space of finite signed…

Discrete conformal mappings based on circle packing, vertex scaling, and related structures has had significant activity since Thurston proposed circle packing as a way to approximate conformal maps in the 1980s. The first convergence…

A new gridding technique for the solution of partial differential equations in cubical geometry is presented. The method is based on volume penalization, allowing for the imposition of a cubical geometry inside of its circumscribing sphere.…

The initial techniques developed in Euclid's Elements, well before the use of the parallel postulate, are reexamined in order to clarify even the most obscure details, particularly those related to equality, superposition and angle…

Motivated by the circumcentered Douglas--Rachford method recently introduced by Behling, Bello Cruz and Santos to accelerate the Douglas--Rachford method, we study the properness of the circumcenter mapping and the circumcenter method…

We introduce weak barycenters of a family of probability distributions, based on the recently developed notion of optimal weak transport of mass by Gozlanet al. (2017) and Backhoff-Veraguas et al. (2020). We provide a theoretical analysis…

We give a short and simple proof of a recent result of Dobbins that any point in an $nd$-polytope is the barycenter of $n$ points in the $d$-skeleton. This new proof builds on the constraint method that we recently introduced to prove…

Let (X, d) be a Cat(k) space and P a bounded subset of X . If k > 0 then it is required that the diameter of P be less than Pi/(4 sqrt(k)) . Let u: P to R be a bounded non-negative function from P to R. The existence of a unique point in X…
