We study compactness and boundedness of embeddings from Sobolev type spaces on metric spaces into $L^q$ spaces with respect to another measure. The considered Sobolev spaces can be of fractional order and some statements allow also…

We introduce the boundary measure at scale r of a compact subset of the n-dimensional Euclidean space. We show how it can be computed for point clouds and suggest these measures can be used for feature detection. The main contribution of…

In an attempt to develop higher-dimensional quasiconformal mappings on metric measure spaces with curvature conditions, i.e. from Ahlfors to Alexsandrov, we show that a non-collapsed $\mathrm{RCD}(0,n)$ space ($n\geq2$) with Euclidean…

The basic properties of Poincare gauge invariant Hilbert bundles over Lorentzian manifolds are derived. Quantum connections are introduced in such bundles, which govern a parallel transport that is shown to satisfy the strong equivalence…

Recent work has used optimal transport ideas to generalize the notion of (center-outward) quantiles to dimension $d\geq 2$. We study the robustness properties of these transport-based quantiles by deriving their breakdown point, roughly,…

We consider ultracold atoms in 2D-disordered optical potentials and calculate microscopic quantities characterizing matter wave quantum transport in the non-interacting regime. We derive the diffusion constant as function of all relevant…

Let $\mathcal{M} (X)$ denote the space of complete Riemannian metrics with non-positive sectional curvature and with negatively curved ends, on a manifold $X$. We show that $\mathcal{M} (\mathbb{R} \times S ^{1}) $ and $\mathcal{M}…

In this note, we extend diameter bounds of Simon, Topping, and Wu--Zheng to submanifolds with boundary and (potentially non-compact) ambient manifolds with minor curvature restrictions. The bound is dependent on both an integral of mean…

We discuss problems that relate curvature and concentration properties of eigenfunctions and quasimodes on compact boundaryless Riemannian manifolds. These include new sharp $L^q$-estimates, $q\in (2,q_c]$, $q_c=2(n+1)/(n-1)$, of…

In this note we study the conformal metrics of constant $Q$ curvature on closed locally conformally flat manifolds. We prove that for a closed locally conformally flat manifold of dimension $n\geq 5$ and with Poincar\"{e} exponent less than…

We develop a comprehensive geometric framework for defining spaces $\mathcal{G}(M,E)$ of nonlinear generalized sections of vector bundles $E \to M$ containing spaces of distributional sections $\mathcal{D}'(M, E)$. Our theory incorporates…

The divergence of curvature invariants at a given point signals the impossibility of extending the spacetime to that point, with the derivative order of these diverging invariants determining the differentiability class of the considered…

We study the convergence properties, in Hellinger and related distances, of nonparametric density estimators based on measure transport. These estimators represent the measure of interest as the pushforward of a chosen reference…

This is the second in the series of papers on transport phenomena along random rough surfaces. We apply our simple general approach\cite{r1} to transport in very narrow channels, when the particles wavelength is comparable to the width of…

We show that in every dimension $n \geq 8$, there exists a smooth closed manifold $M^n$ which does not admit a smooth positive scalar curvature ("psc") metric, but $M$ admits an $\mathrm{L}^\infty$-metric which is smooth and has psc outside…

It is proven that the Poincare symmetry determines equations of motion, which are for massless particles of any spin in d-dimensional spaces linear in the momentum. The proof is made only for even d and for fields with no gauge symmetry. We…

We study curvature dimension inequalities for the sub-Laplacian on contact Riemannian manifolds. This new curvature dimension condition is then used to obtain: 1) Geometric conditions ensuring the compactness of the underlying manifold…

We prove that various spaces of constrained positive scalar curvature metrics on compact 3-manifolds with boundary, when not empty, are contractible. The constraints we mostly focus on are given in terms of local conditions on the mean…

We prove an abstract structure theorem for weighted manifolds supporting a weighted $f$-Poincar\'e inequality and whose ends satisfy a suitable non-integrability condition. We then study how our arguments can be used to obtain full…
