Applying the Bonk-Kleiner characterization of Ahlfors 2-regular quasispheres, we show that a metric two-sphere $X$ is a quasisphere if and only if $X$ is linearly locally connected and carries a weak metric doubling measure, i.e., a measure…

We study metric spaces homeomorphic to the 2-sphere, and find conditions under which they are quasisymmetrically homeomorphic to the standard 2-sphere. As an application of our main theorem we show that an Ahlfors 2-regular, linearly…

We show that, for each $n\ge 3$, there exists a smooth Riemannian metric $g$ on a punctured sphere $\mathbb{S}^n\setminus \{x_0\}$ for which the associated length metric extends to a length metric $d$ of $\mathbb{S}^n$ with the following…

Bonk and Kleiner showed that any metric sphere which is Ahlfors 2-regular and linearly locally contractible is quasisymmetrically equivalent to the standard sphere, in a quantitative way. We extend this result to arbitrary metric compact…

We establish uniformization results for metric spaces that are homeomorphic to the euclidean plane or sphere and have locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure. Applying the geometric definition of quasiconformality, we give a necessary and…

We study a quasisymmetric version of the classical Koebe uniformization theorem in the context of Ahlfors regular metric surfaces. In particular, we prove that an Ahlfors 2-regular metric surface X homeomorphic to a finitely connected…

We prove that every two-dimensional quasisphere is the limit of a sequence of smooth spheres that are uniform quasispheres. In the case of metric spheres of finite area we provide necessary and sufficient geometric conditions for a…

The classical uniformization theorem states that any simply connected Riemann surface is conformally equivalent to the disk, the plane, or the sphere, each equipped with a standard conformal structure. We give a similar uniformization for…

We prove that any metric surface (that is, metric space homeomorphic to a 2-manifold with boundary) with locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure is the Gromov-Hausdorff limit of polyhedral surfaces with controlled geometry. We use this result,…

We show that a locally Ahlfors 2-regular and locally linearly locally contractible metric surface is locally quasisymmetrically equivalent to the disk. We also discuss an application of this result to the problem of characterizing surfaces…

We investigate the quasisymmetric uniformization of a special class of metric surfaces known as paper surfaces, constructed as quotients of planar multipolygons via segment pairings, including infinite Type W identifications. These spaces,…

We study metric spheres Z obtained by gluing two hemispheres of the Euclidean sphere along an orientation-preserving homeomorphism mapping the equator onto itself, where the distance on Z is the canonical distance that is locally isometric…

We give a characterization of metric spaces quasisymmetrically equivalent to a finitely connected circle domain. This result generalizes the uniformization of Ahlfors 2-regular spaces by Merenkov and Wildrick.

The space of shapes of a polyhedron with given total angles less than 2\pi at each of its n vertices has a Kaehler metric, locally isometric to complex hyperbolic space CH^{n-3}. The metric is not complete: collisions between vertices take…

Let M be a closed minimal hypersurface in 5-dimensional Euclidean sphere with constant nonnegative scalar curvature. We prove that, if the sum of the cubes of all principal curvatures and the number of distinct principal curvatures are…

We show that there exists a metric with positive scalar curvature on S2xS1 and a sequence of embedded minimal cylinders that converges to a minimal lamination that, in a neighborhood of a strictly stable 2-sphere, is smooth except at two…

In this paper, we prove that the $3$-sphere endowed with an arbitrary Riemannian metric either contains at least two embedded minimal $2$-spheres or admits an optimal foliation by $2$-spheres. This generalizes recent results by…

In this survey we present the most recent developments in the uniformization of metric surfaces, i.e., metric spaces homeomorphic to two-dimensional topological manifolds. We start from the classical conformal uniformization theorem of…

Rigidity results are obtained for Riemannian $d$-manifolds with $\sec \geqslant 1$ and spherical rank at least $d-2>0$. Conjecturally, all such manifolds are locally isometric to a round sphere or complex projective space with the…

In this paper, we show that the analogue of Thurston's asymmetric metric on the Teichm{\"u}ller space of flat structures on the torus is weak Finsler and we give a geometric description of its unit sphere at each point in the tangent space…
