We study the canonical metric on a compact Riemann surface of genus at least two. While it is known that the canonical metric is of nonpositive curvature, we show that its Gaussian curvatures are not bounded away from zero nor negative…

In this paper, we will determine the topological types of hyperbolic 3-anifolds H^3/G such that G is a geometric limit of any algebraically convergent sequence of quasi-Fuchsian groups.

We prove that the boundary of an almost minimizer of the intrinsic perimeter in a plentiful group can be approximated by intrinsic Lipschitz graphs. Plentiful groups are Carnot groups of step~$2$ whose center of the Lie algebra is generated…

We mainly investigate some properties of quasiconformal mappings between smooth 2-dimensional surfaces with boundary in the Euclidean space, satisfying certain partial differential equations (inequalities) concerning Laplacian, and in…

We prove Thurston's bending measure conjecture for quasifuchsian once punctured torus groups. The conjecture states that the bending measures of the two components of the convex hull boundary uniquely determine the group.

We introduce a CR-invariant class of Lorentzian metrics on a circle bundle over a 3-dimensional CR-structure, which we call quasi-Fefferman metrics. These metrics generalise the Fefferman metric but allow for more control of the Ricci…

We obtain fractal Lipschitz-Killing curvature-direction measures for a large class of self-similar sets F in R^d. Such measures jointly describe the distribution of normal vectors and localize curvature by analogues of the higher order mean…

We parametrize the commensurability classes of curves on Shimura surfaces that are totally geodesic, i.e., the commensurability classes of so-called $\mathbb{C}$-Fuchsian subgroups. In particular, if a Shimura surface contains one…

We introduce a method for analyzing the convex hull of a set in non-positively curved piecewise Euclidean polygonal complexes and we apply this method to prove that, with the usual action of Fm x Zn on the metric product of the Cayley graph…

Examples of almost-positively and quasi-positively curved spaces of the form M=H((G,h)xF) were discovered recently. Here, h is a left-invariant metric on a compact Lie group G, F is a compact Riemannian manifold on which the subgroup H of G…

In this article we introduce the notion of a k-almost-quasifibration and give many examples. We also show that a large class of these examples are not quasifibrations. As a consequence, supporting the Asphericity conjecture of [19], we…

A set of n non-collinear points in the Euclidean plane defines at least n different lines. Chen and Chv\'tal in 2008 conjectured that the same results is true in metric spaces for an adequate definition of line. More recently, it was…

It is known that the almost-Kaehler anti-self-dual metrics on a given 4-manifold sweep out an open subset in the moduli space of anti-self-dual metrics. However, we show here by example that this subset is not generally closed, and so need…

This work presents an explicit description of the Fisher-Rao Riemannian metric on the Hilbert manifold of equivalent centered Gaussian measures on an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. We show that the corresponding quantities from the…

With respect to every Riemannian metric, the Teichm\"uller metric, and the Thurston metric on Teichm\"uller space, we show that there exist measured foliations on surfaces whose extremal length functions are not convex. The construction…

Relying on the notions of submodular function and partial metric, we introduce normed inverse semigroups as a generalization of normed groups and sup-semilattices equipped with an upper valuation. We define the property of skew-convexity…

Let $S_{g,n}$ be a surface of genus $g > 1$ with $n>0$ punctures equipped with a complete hyperbolic cusp metric. Then it can be uniquely realized as the boundary metric of an ideal Fuchsian polyhedron. In the present paper we give a new…

We show that any closed biquotient with finite fundamental group admits metrics of positive Ricci curvature. Also, let M be a closed manifold on which a compact Lie group G acts with cohomogeneity one, and let L be a closed subgroup of G…

We show that the set of Finsler metrics on a manifold contains an open everywhere dense subset of Finsler metrics with infinite-dimensional holonomy groups.

The hyperbolic space $ \H^d$ can be defined as a pseudo-sphere in the $(d+1)$ Minkowski space-time. In this paper, a Fuchsian group $\Gamma$ is a group of linear isometries of the Minkowski space such that $\H^d/\Gamma$ is a compact…
