We prove the absence of a universal diameter bound on lengths of curves in a sweep-out of a Riemannian 2-sphere. If such bound existed it would yield a simple proof of existence of short geodesic segments and closed geodesics on a sphere of…

We give a new approach to the infinitesimal structure of Lipschitz maps into L^1. As a first application, we give an alternative proof of the main theorem from an earlier paper, that the Heisenberg group does not admit a bi-Lipschitz…

We establish that every $K$-quasiconformal mapping of $w$ of the unit disk $\ID$ onto a $C^2$-Jordan domain $\Omega$ is Lipschitz provided that $\Delta w\in L^p(\ID)$ for some $p>2$. We also prove that if in this situation $K\to 1$ with…

We consider immersions admitting uniform representations as an L-Lipschitz graph. In codimension 1, we show compactness for such immersions for arbitrary fixed finite L and uniformly bounded volume. The same result is shown in arbitrary…

Given a sweepout of a Riemannian 2-sphere which is composed of curves of length less than L, we construct a second sweepout composed of curves of length less than L which are either constant curves or simple curves. This result, and the…

The $p$-widths of a closed Riemannian manifold are a nonlinear analogue of the spectrum of its Laplace--Beltrami operator, which corresponds to areas of a certain min-max sequence of possibly singular minimal submanifolds. We show that the…

We study the ambient Lipschitz geometry of semialgebraic surfaces. It was discovered in \cite{BBG} that ambient Lipschitz Geometry is different from the outer Lipschtz geometry. We show that two surface germs in $\mathbb{R}^3$, Lipschitz…

We establish that over a C^{2,1} manifold the exponential map of any Lipschitz connection or spray determines a local Lipeomophism and that, furthermore, reversible convex normal neighborhoods do exist. To that end we use the method of…

Let $X$ be a metric space and let $\mu$ be a probability measure on it. Consider a Lipschitz map $T: X \rightarrow \Rn$, with Lipschitz constant $\leq 1$. Then one can ask whether the image $TX$ can have large projections on many…

We prove that the reconstruction of a certain type of length spaces from their travel time data on a closed subset is Lipschitz stable. The travel time data is the set of distance functions from the entire space, measured on the chosen…

We prove $L^q$ bounds on the restriction of spectral clusters to submanifolds in Riemannian manifolds equipped with metrics of $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity for $0 \leq \alpha \leq 1$. Our results allow for Lipschitz regularity when $\alpha…

The classic Lusternik--Schnirelmann theorem states that there are three distinct simple periodic geodesics on any Riemannian 2-sphere $M$. It has been proven by Y. Liokumovich, A. Nabutovsky and R. Rotman that the shortest three such curves…

We consider Lipschitz maps with values in quasi-metric spaces and extend such maps to finitely many points. We prove that in this context every 1-Lipschitz map admits an extension such that its Lipschitz constant is bounded from above by…

We prove that any metric surface (that is, metric space homeomorphic to a 2-manifold with boundary) with locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of polyhedral surfaces with controlled geometry. We use this result,…

We consider the direction set determined by various subsets $E$ of Euclidean space and show that there is a trichotomy: Either (i) The subset is the graph of a Lipschitz function and the direction set is not dense in the sphere, (ii) The…

We prove the existence of immersed closed curves of constant geodesic curvature in an arbitrary Riemannian 2-sphere for almost every prescribed curvature. To achieve this, we develop a min-max scheme for a weighted length functional.

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Lipschitz map, or more generally a uniformly Lipschitz family of maps, to factor the Hamming cubes. This is an extension to Lipschitz maps of a particular spatial result of Bourgain, Milman,…

In this paper we consider determining a minimal surface embedded in a Riemannian manifold $\Sigma\times \mathbb{R}$. We show that if $\Sigma$ is a two dimensional Riemannian manifold with boundary, then the knowledge of the associated…

We prove two rigidity theorems for maps between Riemannian manifolds. First, we prove that a Lipschitz map $f:M\to N$ between two oriented Riemannian manifolds, whose differential is almost everywhere an orientation-preserving isometry, is…

We prove that the outer Lipschitz geometry of a germ $(X,0)$ of a normal complex surface singularity determines a large amount of its analytic structure. In particular, it follows that any analytic family of normal surface singularities…
