After having investigated the geodesic triangles and their angle sums in Nil and $Sl\times\mathbb{R}$ geometries we consider the analogous problem in Sol space that is one of the eight 3-dimensional Thurston geometries. We analyse the…
We distinguish the axiomatic study of proofs in geometry from study about geometry from general axioms for mathematics. We briefly report on an abuse of that distinction and its unfortunate effect on US high school education. We review a…
The concept of graph flattenability, initially formalized by Belk and Connelly and later expanded by Sitharam and Willoughby, extends the question of embedding finite metric spaces into a given normed space. A finite simple graph $G=(V,E)$…
We study the theory of convergence for CAT$(0)$-lattices (that is groups $\Gamma$ acting geometrically on proper, geodesically complete CAT$(0)$-spaces) and their quotients (CAT$(0)$-orbispaces). We describe some splitting and collapsing…
In recent work, Franck Barthe and Mokshay Madiman introduced the concept of the Lyusternik region, denoted by $\Lambda_{n}(m)$, to better understand volumes of sumsets. They gave a characterization of $\Lambda_{n}(2)$ (the volumes of…
In light of the log-Brunn-Minkowski conjecture, various attempts have been made to define the geometric mean of convex bodies. Many of these constructions are fairly complex and/or fail to satisfy some natural properties one would expect of…
The classical theory of plane projective geometry is examined constructively, using both synthetic and analytic methods. The topics include Desargues's Theorem, harmonic conjugates, projectivities, involutions, conics, Pascal's Theorem,…
Metric measure spaces with synthetic Ricci bounds have attracted great interest in recent years, accompanied by spectacular breakthroughs and deep new insights. In this survey, I will provide a brief introduction to the concept of lower…
We prove that given a locally integrable function $f$ on an open set of an Euclidean space the distributional derivative $Xf$ with respect to a locally Lipshitzian vector field $X$ is locally integrable if, and only if, the function $f$…
Busemann-Petty type problems for the recently introduced complex projection, centroid and $L_p$-intersection body operators are examined. Moreover, it is shown that, as their real counterparts, they can be linked to the spherical Fourier…
This paper gives another proof of the key lemma in my recent paper which solves the optimal paper Moebius band conjecture of Halpern and Weaver, namely Lemma T. The proof here is longer but it offers more geometric intuition about what is…
Consider a uniformly distributed random linear subspace $L$ and a stochastically independent random affine subspace $E$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, both of fixed dimension. For a natural class of distributions for $E$ we show that the intersection…
We investigate polytopes inscribed into a sphere that are normally equivalent (or strongly isomorphic) to a given polytope $P$. We show that the associated space of polytopes, called the inscribed cone of $P$, is closed under Minkowski…
In this paper, we deal with the question; under what conditions the points $P_i(xi,yi)$ $(i = 1,\cdots, n)$ form a convex polygon provided $x_1 < \cdots < x_n$ holds. One of the main findings of the paper can be stated as follows: "Let…
This note is based on Professor Vitali Kapovitch's comparison geometry course at the University of Toronto. It delves into various comparison theorems, including those by Rauch and Toponogov, focusing on their applications, such as…
We introduce strings in metric spaces and define string complexes of metric spaces. We describe the class of 2-dimensional topological spaces which arise in this way from finite metric spaces.
The central focus of this paper is the $L_p$ dual Minkowski problem for $C$-compatible sets, where $C$ is a pointed closed convex cone in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with nonempty interior. Such a problem deals with the characterization of the $(p,…
We prove that the Gromov-Hausdorff distance from the circle with its geodesic metric to any simply connected geodesic space is never smaller than $\frac{\pi}{4}$. We also prove that this bound is tight through the construction of a simply…
We construct a polygonal spiral by arranging a sequence of regular $n$-gons such that each $n$-gon shares a specified side and vertex with the $(n+1)$-gon in the construction. By offering flexibility for determining the size of each $n$-gon…
We define coarse proximity structures, which are an analog of small-scale proximity spaces in the large-scale context. We show that metric spaces induce coarse proximity structures, and we construct a natural small-scale proximity…
