We obtain an equivariant classification for orientable, closed, four-dimensional Alexandrov spaces admitting an isometric torus action. This generalizes the equivariant classification of Orlik and Raymond of closed four-dimensional…

Closed hyperbolic manifolds are proven to minimize volume over all Alexandrov spaces with curvature bounded below by -1 in the same bilipschitz class. As a corollary compact convex cores with totally geodesic boundary are proven to minimize…

A sharp lower bound for the injectivity radius in noncompact nonnegatively curved Riemannian manifolds involving their soul goes back to \v{S}arafutdinov. We generalize this bound to the setting of Alexandrov spaces. Our main theorem reads…

We prove that the Novikov conjecture holds for any discrete group admitting an isometric and metrically proper action on an admissible Hilbert-Hadamard space. Admissible Hilbert-Hadamard spaces are a class of (possibly infinite-dimensional)…

This paper is concerned with the computation of an optimal matching between two manifold-valued curves. Curves are seen as elements of an infinite-dimensional manifold and compared using a Riemannian metric that is invariant under the…

On a smooth connected manifold, we consider all possible locally elliptic and locally bounded measurable coefficient Riemannian metrics called rough Riemannian metrics. We equip this set with an extended metric which is connected if and…

Given a metric space X, one defines its Wasserstein space W2(X) as a set of sufficiently decaying probability measures on X endowed with a metric defined from optimal transportation. In this article, we continue the geometric study of W2(X)…

A generalized Stiefel manifold is the manifold of orthonormal frames in a vector space with a non-degenerated bilinear or hermitian form. In this article, the Isometry group of the generalized Stiefel manifolds are computed at least up to…

The Euclidean mixed isoperimetric-isodiametric inequality states that the round ball maximizes the volume under constraint on the product between boundary area and radius. The goal of the paper is to investigate such mixed…

Almost-isometries are quasi-isometries with multiplicative constant one. Lifting a pair of metrics on a compact space gives quasi-isometric metrics on the universal cover. Under some additional hypotheses on the metrics, we show that there…

We prove that any metric of non-positive curvature in the sense of Alexandrov on a compact surface can be isometrically embedded as a convex spacelike Cauchy surface in a flat spacetime of dimension (2+1). The proof follows from polyhedral…

In this paper, we investigate complete curvature-adapted submanifolds with maximal flat section and trivial normal holonomy group in symmetric spaces of compact type or non-compact type under certain condition, and derive the constancy of…

We establish the validity of the isoperimetric inequality (or equivalently, an $L^1$ Euclidean-type Sobolev inequality) on manifolds with asymptotically non-negative sectional curvature. Unlike previous results in the literature, our…

We present a general framework for automatic continuity results for groups of isometries of metric spaces. In particular, we prove automatic continuity property for the group of isometries of the Urysohn space and the Urysohn sphere, i.e.…

We prove that the isometry group $\Iso(\Ur)$ of the universal Urysohn metric space $\Ur$ equipped with the natural Polish topology is a L\'evy group in the sense of Gromov and Milman, that is, admits an approximating chain of compact (in…

As a continuation of [MY], we determine the topologies of collapsing three-dimensional compact Alexandrov spaces with nonempty boundary.

We study isometric actions of compact Lie groups on complete orientable positively curved $n$-manifolds whose orbit spaces have non-empty boundary in the sense of Alexandrov geometry. In particular, we classify quotients of the unit sphere…

The Isomorphism Conjecture is a conceptional approach towards a calculation of the algebraic K-theory of a group ring RG, where G is an infinite group. In this paper we prove the conjecture in dimensions n<2 for fundamental groups of closed…

In this expository paper, we discuss a unified framework for proving various geometric inequalities, based on the so-called Alexandrov-Bakelman-Pucci technique. Examples include Cabr\'e's proof of the classical isoperimetric inequality in…

In the present paper, we determine the topologies of three-dimensional closed Alexandrov spaces which converge to lower dimensional spaces in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology.
