In low dimensional topology, we have some invariants defined by using solutions of some nonlinear elliptic operators. The invariants could be understood as Euler class or degree in the ordinary cohomology, in infinite dimensional setting.…

We derive asymptotic estimates at infinity for positive harmonic functions in a large class of non-smooth unbounded domains. These include domains whose sections, after rescaling, resemble a Lipschitz cylinder or a Lipschitz cone, e.g.,…

Brane cosmology presents many interesting possibilities including: phantom acceleration (w<-1), self-acceleration, unification of dark energy with inflation, transient acceleration, loitering cosmology, new singularities at which the Hubble…

We review some aspects of theories with compact extra dimensions. We consider the motivation and the theoretical basis of Large, Universal and Warped Extra Dimensions. We focus on those aspects that are potentially relevant in the…

We introduce a new quasi-isometry invariant of metric spaces called the hyperbolic dimension, hypdim, which is a version of the Gromov's asymptotic dimension, asdim. The hyperbolic dimension is at most the asymptotic dimension, however,…

We obtain bivariate asymptotics for one part monotone Hurwitz numbers in high genus (i.e. as both the size and the genus go to infinity). To do so, we start with a linear recurrence for these numbers obtained by Do and Chaudhuri. Then, we…

In this paper we study a homological version of the higher-dimensional divergence invariants defined by Brady and Farb. We show that they are quasi-isometry invariants in the class of proper cocompact Hadamard spaces in the sense of…

We give improvements of estimates of invariant metrics in the normal direction on strictly pseudoconvex domains. Specifically we will give the second term in the expansion of the metrics. This depends on an improved localisation result and…

We discuss recent developments related to certain blow up methods suitable for the analysis of cosmological singularities and asymptotics. We review results obtained in a variety of currently popular themes and describe ongoing research…

The geometry of closed surfaces equipped with a Euclidean metric with finitely many conical points of arbitrary angle is studied. The main result is that the image of a non-closed geodesic has 0 distance from the set of conical points.…

We state conjectures on the asymptotic behavior of the Masur-Veech volumes of strata in the moduli spaces of meromorphic quadratic differentials and on the asymptotics of their area Siegel-Veech constants as the genus tends to infinity.

A method to evaluate spin networks for (2+1)-dimensional quantum gravity is given. We analyse the evaluation of spin networks for Lorentzian, Euclidean and a new limiting case of Newtonian quantum gravity. Particular attention is paid to…

We give estimates on asymptotic dimensions of products of general hyperbolic spaces with following applications to the hyperbolic groups. We give examples of strict inequality in the product theorem for the asymptotic dimension in the class…

We show that the asymptotic dimension of a hyperbolic relatively hyperbolic graph is finite provided that this holds true uniformly for the peripheral subgraphs and for the electrifiation. We use this to show that the asymptotic dimension…

By recognizing them as fundamental groups of developable complexes of groups we prove that mapping class groups of compact orientable surfaces have finite asymptotic dimension.

We introduce the notion of negative topological dimension and the notion of weight for the asymptotic topological dimension. Quantizing of spaces of negative dimension is applied to linguistic statistics.

We compute the asymptotics of the number of connected branched coverings of a torus as their degree goes to infinity and the ramification type stays fixed. These numbers are equal to the volumes of the moduli spaces of pairs (curve,…

In this paper, we define asymptotic dimension of fuzzy metric spaces in the sense of George and Veeramini. We prove that asymptotic dimension is an invariant in the coarse category of fuzzy metric spaces. We also show several consequences…

We characterize higher rank model geometries -- Riemannian symmetric spaces, Euclidean buildings and products -- among Hadamard spaces by using antipodal sets at infinity.

We review the role that infinite-dimensional symmetries arising at the boundary of asymptotically flat spacetimes play in the context of the celestial holography program. Once recast into the language of conformal field theory, asymptotic…
