Let $\Omega$ be a pseudoconvex domain in $\mathbb C^n$ satisfying an $f$-property for some function $f$. We show that the Bergman metric associated to $\Omega$ has the lower bound $\tilde g(\delta_\Omega(z)^{-1})$ where $\delta_\Omega(z)$…

We study Sobolev-type metrics of fractional order $s\geq0$ on the group $\Diff_c(M)$ of compactly supported diffeomorphisms of a manifold $M$. We show that for the important special case $M=S^1$ the geodesic distance on $\Diff_c(S^1)$…

Wang and Ye conjectured in [22]: Let $\Omega$ be a regular, bounded and convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. There exists a finite constant $C({\Omega})>0$ such that \[ \int_{\Omega}e^{\frac{4\pi u^{2}}{H_{d}(u)}}dxdy\le C(\Omega),\;\;\forall…

It has been recently established by the first and third author that on uniformly rectifiable sets the Green function is almost affine in the weak sense, and moreover, in some scenarios such Green function estimates are equivalent to the…

Let $p \in (1,\infty)$, $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$, and $\Omega\subsetneq \mathbb{R}^N$ be a $C^{1,\gamma}$-domain with a compact boundary $\partial \Omega$, where $\gamma\in (0,1]$. Denote by $\delta_{\Omega}(x)$ the distance of a point $x\in…

In this short survey we want to present some of the impact of Minkowski's successive minima within Convex and Discrete Geometry. Originally related to the volume of an $o$-symmetric convex body, we point out relations of the successive…

Let $\Sigma$ be a finite alphabet, $\Omega=\Sigma^{\mathbb{Z}^{d}}$ equipped with the shift action, and $\mathcal{I}$ the simplex of shift-invariant measures on $\Omega$. We study the relation between the restriction $\mathcal{I}_n$ of…

A homogeneous set of $n$ points in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space determines at least $\Omega(n^{2d/(d^2+1)} / \log^{c(d)} n)$ distinct distances for a constant $c(d)>0$. In three-space, we slightly improve our general bound and show…

The \emph{Monge-Amp\`ere} torsion deficit of an open, bounded convex set $\Omega\subset\R^n$ of class $C^2$ is the normalized gap between the value of the torsion functional evaluated on $\Omega$ and its value on the ball with the same…

In this paper we consider Riemannian manifolds of dimension at least $3$, with nonnegative Ricci curvature and Euclidean Volume Growth. For every open bounded subset with smooth boundary we establish the validity of an optimal Minkowski…

In this paper, we prove that for any bounded set of finite perimeter $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we can choose smooth sets $E_k \Subset \Omega$ such that $E_k \rightarrow \Omega$ in $L^1$ and \begin{align}…

We establish a general weak* lower semicontinuity result in the space $\BD(\Omega)$ of functions of bounded deformation for functionals of the form $$\Fcal(u) := \int_\Omega f \bigl(x, \Ecal u \bigr) \dd x + \int_\Omega f^\infty \Bigl(x,…

We prove that if $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ is a (not necessarily strictly) convex, $C^1$ domain, and $\mu$ and $\bar{\mu}$ are probability measures absolutely continuous with respect to surface measure on $\partial \Omega$, with…

Let $\Omega$ be a domain in $R^d$ and $d_\Gamma$ the Euclidean distance to the boundary $\Gamma$. We investigate whether the weighted Hardy inequality \[ \|d_\Gamma^{\delta/2-1}\varphi\|_2\leq…

Our work investigates varifolds $\Sigma \subset M$ in a Riemannian manifold, with arbitrary codimension and bounded mean curvature, contained in an open domain $\Omega$. Under mild assumptions on the curvatures of $M$ and on $\partial…

A distance function on the set of physical equivalence classes of Yang-Mills configurations considered by Feynman and by Atiyah, Hitchin and Singer is studied for both the $2+1$ and $3+1$-dimensional Hamiltonians. This set equipped with…

We introduce two measures of weak non-compactness $Ja_E$ and $Ja$ that quantify, via distances, the idea of boundary behind James' compactness theorem. These measures tell us, for a bounded subset $C$ of a Banach space $E$ and for given…

For a measure space $\Omega$ we extend the theory of Orlicz spaces generated by an even convex integrand $\varphi \colon \Omega \times X \to \left[ 0, \infty \right]$ to the case when the range Banach space $X$ is arbitrary. Besides…
