An almost Fuchsian 3-manifold is a quasi-Fuchsian manifold which contains an incompressible closed minimal surface with principal curvatures in the range of $(-1,1)$. Such a 3-manifold $M$ admits a foliation of parallel surfaces, whose…
We propose and investigate a numerical shooting method for computing geodesics in the Weil-Petersson ($WP$) metric on the universal Teichm\"uller space T(1). This space, or rather the coset subspace $\PSL_2(\R)\backslash\Diff(S^1)$, has…
Pulling back complex structures along a branched covering induces a holomorphic isometric embedding of Teichm\"uller spaces. We show that for dimension at least $2$, all isometric embeddings arise from branched coverings. This generalizes a…
We derive upper bounds on the difference between the orthogonal projections of a smooth function $u$ onto two finite element spaces that are nearby, in the sense that the support of every shape function belonging to one but not both of the…
We introduce and analyze an abstract algorithm that aims to find the projection onto a closed convex subset of a Hilbert space. When specialized to the fixed point set of a quasi nonexpansive mapping, the required sufficient condition…
The notion of quasi-unit has been introduced by Yosida in unital Riesz spaces. Later on, a fruitful potential theoretic generalization was obtained by Arsove and Leutwiler. Due to the work of Eriksson and Leutwiler, this notion also turned…
The goal of the chapter is to present certain aspects of the relationship between the study of simple closed geodesics and Teichm\"uller spaces.
By means of analytic methods the quasi-projectivity of the moduli space of algebraically polarized varieties with a not necessarily reduced complex structure is proven including the case of non-uniruled polarized varieties.
This paper is devoted to study of transformations on metric spaces. It is done in an effort to produce qualitative version of quasi-isometries which takes into account the asymptotic behavior of the Gromov product in hyperbolic spaces. We…
We investigate the concept of projective equivalence of connections in supergeometry. To this aim, we propose a definition for (super) geodesics on a supermanifold in which, as in the classical case, they are the projections of the integral…
Given a compact orientable surface with finitely many punctures $\Sigma$, let $\Cal S(\Sigma)$ be the set of isotopy classes of essential unoriented simple closed curves in $\Sigma$. We determine a complete set of relations for a function…
We work with the space $\mathcal C(S)$ of geodesic currents on a closed surface $S$ of negative Euler characteristic. By prior work of the author with Sebastian Hensel, each filling geodesic current $\mu$ has a unique length-minimizing…
We present an approximation to topological spaces by {\it noncommutative} lattices. This approximation has a deep physical flavour based on the impossibility to fully localize particles in any position measurement. The original space being…
We characterize the semiclosed projections and apply them to compute the Schur complement of a selfadjoint operator with respect to a closed subspace. These projections occur naturally when dealing with weak complementability.
Thurston boundary of the universal Teichm\"uller space $T(\mathbb{D})$ is the space $PML_{bdd}(\mathbb{D})$ of projective bounded measured laminations of $\mathbb{D}$. A geodesic ray in $T(\mathbb{D})$ is of generalized Teichm\"uller type…
Geodesics are studied in one of the Weyl metrics, referred to as the M--Q solution. First, arguments are provided, supporting our belief that this space--time is the more suitable (among the known solutions of the Weyl family) for…
It is known that if any function acting from precompact metric space to itself increases the distance between some pair of points then it must decrease distance between some other pair of points. We show that this is not the case for…
For metric spaces with curvature less than or equal to x, x<0, it is shown that a recurrent geodesic can be approximated by closed geodesics. A counter example is provided for the converse.
We construct a Banach space satisfying that the nearest point map (also called proximity mapping or metric projection) onto any compact and convex subset is continuous but not uniformly continuous. The space we construct is locally…
We show that strongly contracting geodesics in Outer space project to parameterized quasigeodesics in the free factor complex. This result provides a converse to a theorem of Bestvina--Feighn, and is used to give conditions for when a…
