We state that any constant curvature Riemannian metric with conical singularities of constant sign curvature on a compact (orientable) surface $S$ can be realized as a convex polyhedron in a Riemannian or Lorentzian) space-form. Moreover…

The Weierstrass curve $X$ is a smooth algebraic curve determined by the Weierstrass canonical form, $y^r + A_{1}(x) y^{r-1} + A_{2}(x) y^{r-2} +\cdots + A_{r-1}(x) y + A_{r}(x)=0$, where $r$ is a positive integer, and each $A_j$ is a…

Prompted by a recent question of G. Hjorth as to whether a bounded Urysohn space is indivisible, that is to say has the property that any partition into finitely many pieces has one piece which contains an isometric copy of the space, we…

Given $\beta\in(1,2)$ the fat Sierpinski gasket $\mathcal S_\beta$ is the self-similar set in $\mathbb R^2$ generated by the iterated function system (IFS) \[ f_{\beta,d}(x)=\frac{x+d}{\beta},\quad d\in\mathcal A:=\{(0, 0), (1,0), (0,1)\}.…

A quasi-tree is a geodesic metric space quasi-isometric to a tree. We give a general construction of many actions of groups on quasi-trees. The groups we can handle include non-elementary (relatively) hyperbolic groups, rank 1 CAT(0)…

WWe define the notion of a random metric space and prove that with probability one such a space is isometricto the Urysohn universal metric space. The main technique is the study of universal and random distance matrices; we relate the…

We prove that complete warped product Einstein metrics with isometric bases, simply connected space form fibers, and the same Ricci curvature and dimension are isometric. In the compact case we also prove that the warping functions must be…

Consider a finite connected $2$-complex $X$ endowed with a piecewise Riemannian metric and whose fundamental group is freely indecomposable, of rank at least $3$, and in which every $2$-generated subgroup is free. In this paper we show that…

We show that many countable groups acting on trees, including free products of infinite countable groups and surface groups, are isomorphic to dense subgroups of isometry groups of bounded Urysohn spaces. This extends previous results of…

We study complete, connected and simply connected $n$-dim Riemannian manifold $M$ satisfying Ricci curvature lower bound. Further more, suppose that $M$ admits discrete isometric group actions $G$ so that the diameter of the quotient space…

We study probability measure preserving (p.m.p.) non-free actions of free groups and the associated IRS's. The perfect kernel of a countable group Gamma is the largest closed subspace of the space of subgroups of Gamma without isolated…

Suppose $(X_n)$ is a sequence of positive-dimensional smooth projective complete intersections over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with dimensions bounded from above and with characteristic zero lifts $(\tilde{X}_n)$ to smooth projective geometrically…

We study various covering spectra for complete noncompact length spaces with universal covers (including Riemannian manifolds and the pointed Gromov Hausdorff limits of Riemannian manifolds with lower bounds on their Ricci curvature). We…

We continue in this article the study of laminations dual to very small actions of a free group F on R-trees. We prove that this lamination determines completely the combinatorial structure of the R-tree (the so-called observers' topology).…

We show the theory of pointed $\R$-trees with radius at most $r$ is axiomatizable in a suitable continuous signature. We identify the model companion $\rbRT_r$ of this theory and study its properties. In particular, the model companion is…

We introduce a new quasi-isometry invariant $\subcorank X$ of a metric space $X$ called {\it subexponential corank}. A metric space $X$ has subexponential corank $k$ if roughly speaking there exists a continuous map $g:X\to T$ such that for…

Here we show existence of numerous subsets of Euclidean and metric spaces that, despite having empty interior, still support Poincar\'e inequalities. Most importantly, our methods do not depend on any rectilinear or self-similar structure…

We study the intrinsic structure of parametric minimal discs in metric spaces admitting a quadratic isoperimetric inequality. We associate to each minimal disc a compact, geodesic metric space whose geometric, topological, and analytic…

We consider generalized metric spaces taking distances in an arbitrary ordered commutative monoid, and investigate when a class $\mathcal{K}$ of finite generalized metric spaces satisfies the Hrushovski extension property: for any…

We construct large families of groups admitting free transitive actions on median spaces. In particular, we construct groups which act freely and transitively on the complete universal real tree with continuum valence such that any subgroup…
