Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian manifold not containing any totally geodesic surface. Our main result shows that then the area of any complete surface immersed into $M$ is bounded by a multiple of its extrinsic curvature energy, i.e. by a…

A celebrated theorem of Kanai states that quasi-isometries preserve isoperimetric inequalities between uniform Riemannian manifolds (with positive injectivity radius) and graphs. Our main result states that we can study the (Cheeger)…

The minrank of a graph $G$ is the minimum rank of a matrix $M$ that can be obtained from the adjacency matrix of $G$ by switching some ones to zeros (i.e., deleting edges) and then setting all diagonal entries to one. This quantity is…

The problem of obtaining the lower bounds on the restriction of Laplacian eigenfunctions to hypersurfaces inside a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ is challenging and has been attempted by many authors \cite{BR, GRS, Jun, ET}. This paper…
