We study the action on currents and differential forms on compact Riemannian manifolds under $C^0$-limits of diffeomorphisms. Using tools from geometric analysis, measure theory, and homotopy theory, we establish several convergence…

This survey summarizes recent progress on the flat chain conjecture, which asserts the equivalence between metric currents and flat chains with finite mass in the Euclidean space. In particular, we focus on recent work showing that the…

We introduce the metric fundamental class for metric spaces that are homeomorphic to compact, non-orientable, smooth manifolds with (possibly empty) boundary. This is an integer rectifiable current that provides an analytic representation…

Inspired by the Gromov-Hausdorff distance, we define the intrinsic flat distance between oriented $m$ dimensional Riemannian manifolds with boundary by isometrically embedding the manifolds into a common metric space, measuring the flat…

We combine Kirchheim's metric differentials with Cheeger charts in order to establish a non-embeddability principle for any collection $\mathcal C$ of Banach (or metric) spaces: if a metric measure space $X$ bi-Lipschitz embeds in some…

In this paper, we present an alternate, elementary proof of the local Lipschitz regularity of the suitable weak solution of heat flow of harmonic maps into CAT(0)-metric spaces, whose existence was established by Lin, Segatti, Sire, and…

We show that compact Riemannian manifolds, regarded as metric spaces with their global geodesic distance, cannot contain a number of rigid structures such as (a) arbitrarily large regular simplices or (b) arbitrarily long sequences of…

We find a compactification of the $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin component by studying the degeneration of the Blaschke metrics on the associated equivariant affine spheres. In the process, we establish the closure in the space of…

We show that for every complete metric space $M$ there exists another complete metric space $N$ of the same density character such that the curve-flat quotient of $N$ is isometric to $M$. Moreover, we show that if $M$ is compact and…

The full lattice convergence on a locally solid Riesz space is an abstraction of the topological, order, and relatively uniform convergences. We investigate four modifications of a full convergence $\mathbb{c}$ on a Riesz space. The first…

In this article, we study the relationship between the weak limit of a sequence of integral currents in a metric space and the possible Hausdorff limit of the sequence of supports. Due to cancellation, the weak limit is in general supported…

Bilipschitz invariant theory concerns low-distortion embeddings of orbit spaces into Euclidean space. To date, embeddings with the smallest-possible distortion are known for only a few cases, to include: (a) planar rotations, (b) real phase…
