A variant of Gromov's H{\"o}lder-equivalence problem, motivated by a pinching problem in Riemannian geometry, is discussed. A partial result is given. The main tool is a general coarea inequality satisfied by packing energies of maps.
These notes grew out of an expose on M. Gromov's paper "Convex sets and K\"ahler manifolds'' ("Advances in Differential Geometry and Topology,'' World Scientific, 1990) at the DMV-Seminar on "Combinatorical Convex Geometry and Toric…
This paper introduces a new construction of subcomplexes associated with a truncated multicomplex. Inspired by the machinery of spectral sequences, this construction yields a collection of interrelated subcomplexes whose differentials…
In the 1970s and again in the 1990s, Gromov gave a number of theorems and conjectures motivated by the notion that the real homotopy theory of compact manifolds and simplicial complexes influences the geometry of maps between them. The main…
In his work on singularities, expanders and topology of maps, Gromov showed, using isoperimetric inequalities in graded algebras, that every real valued map on the $n$-torus admits a fibre whose homological size is bounded below by some…
The simplicial volume is a homotopy invariant of manifolds introduced by Gromov in 1982. In order to study its main properties, Gromov himself initiated the dual theory of bounded cohomology, that developed into an active and independent…
These notes give an introduction to the equivalence problem of sub-Riemannian manifolds. We first introduce preliminaries in terms of connections, frame bundles and sub-Riemannian geometry. Then we arrive to the main aim of these notes,…
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…
This are the notes of a course, given by the first author for the Graduiertenkollegs (=graduate students) at the Ruhr-University Bochum, in December 1997. These lectures pursued two main tasks: FIRST - to give a systematic and…
We give alternative proofs of (unsharp) results of Gromov's on his H\''older equivalence problem: for which $\alpha$ does there exist a $C^\alpha$-homeomorphism of an open set of Euclidean space to an open set of a given Carnot group? We…
Poincar{\'e} and Sobolev inequalities for differential forms on Heisenberg balls, involving Rumin's differentials, are given. Furthermore, a global homotopy of Rumin's complex which improves differentiability of Rumin forms is provided on…
In 1969 M. Gromov in his PhD thesis greatly generalized Smale-Hirsch-Phillips immersion-submersion theory by proving what is now called the h-principle for invariant open differential relations over open manifolds. Gromov extracted the…
In this note we give an answer to a question about mixed volumes asked by Gromov in his paper "Convex Sets and Kahler Manifolds". For reader's convenience we remind definitions and some of the properties of mixed volumes and mixed…
This article is the first in the cycle from two parts. It develops the ideas of integral manifolds method of M. M. Bogolubov in the case of linear differential equations in $R^m$ with variable coefficients. We distinguish linear subspaces…
In Thurston's notes, he gives two different definitions of the Gromov norm (also called simplicial volume) of a manifold and states that they are equal but does not prove it. Gromov proves it in the special case of hyperbolic manifolds as a…
The goal of this article is to motivate and describe how Gromov-Witten theory can and has provided tools to understand the moduli space of curves. For example, ideas and methods from Gromov-Witten theory have led to both conjectures and…
We give a new CR invariant treatment of the bigraded Rumin complex and related cohomology groups via differential forms. A key benefit is the identification of balanced $A_\infty$-structures on the Rumin and bigraded Rumin complexes. We…
The aim of this monograph is twofold: to explain various nonautonomous integrable systems (discrete Painlev\'e all the way up to the elliptic level, as well as generalizations \`a la Garnier) using an interpretation of difference and…
We consider coefficient bodies $\mathcal M_n$ for univalent functions. Based on the L\"owner-Kufarev parametric representation we get a partially integrable Hamiltonian system in which the first integrals are Kirillov's operators for a…
The moduli space of isometry classes of Riemannian structures on a smooth manifold was emphasized by J.A.Wheeler in his superspace formalism of quantum gravity. A natural question concerning it is: What is a natural topology on such moduli…
