We develop a theory of large scale geometry of metrisable topological groups that, in a significant number of cases, allows one to define and identify a unique quasi-isometry type intrinsic to the topological group. Moreover, this…
Let ${\cal M}_{g,n}$ and ${\cal H}_{g,n}$, for $2g-2+n>0$, be, respectively, the moduli stack of $n$-pointed, genus $g$ smooth curves and its closed substack consisting of hyperelliptic curves. Their topological fundamental groups can be…
Lawson-Osserman constructed three types of non-parametric minimal cones of high codimensions based on Hopf maps between spheres, which correspond to Lipschitz but non-differentiable solutions to the minimal surface equations, thereby making…
In a family of compact, canonically polarized, complex manifolds the first variation of the lengths of closed geodesics is computed. As an application, we show the coincidence of the Fenchel-Nielsen and Weil-Petersson symplectic forms on…
We study contact 3-manifolds using the techniques of sub-Riemannian geometry and geometric measure theory, in particular establishing properties of their Lipschitz homotopy groups. We prove a biLipschitz version of the Theorem of Darboux: a…
We consider immersions admitting uniform representations as an L-Lipschitz graph. In codimension 1, we show compactness for such immersions for arbitrary fixed finite L and uniformly bounded volume. The same result is shown in arbitrary…
We find generators of the group of birational automorphisms of the Hessian surface of a general cubic surface. Its nonsingular minimal model is a K3 surface with the Picard lattice of rank 16. The latter embeds naturally in the even…
Consider a one-ended word-hyperbolic group. If it is the fundamental group of a graph of free groups with cyclic edge groups then either it is the fundamental group of a surface or it contains a finitely generated one-ended subgroup of…
We produce examples of complex algebraic surfaces with isolated singularities such that these singularities are not metrically conic, i.e. the germs of the surfaces near singular points are not bi-Lipschitz equivalent, with respect to the…
Given a bi-invariant metric on a group, we construct a version of an asymptotic cone without using ultrafilters. The new construction, called the directional asymptotic cone, is a contractible topological group equipped with a complete…
We provide a Rademacher theorem for intrinsically Lipschitz functions $\phi:U\subseteq \mathbb W\to \mathbb L$, where $U$ is a Borel set, $\mathbb W$ and $\mathbb L$ are complementary subgroups of a Carnot group, where we require that…
The action of the mapping class group of a surface on the collection of homotopy classes of disjointly embedded curves or arcs in the surface is discussed here as a tool for understanding Riemann's moduli space and its topological and…
We determine the local geometric structure of two-dimensional metric spaces with curvature bounded above as the union of finitely many properly embedded/branched immersed Lipschitz disks. As a result, we obtain a graph structure of the…
We prove that a family of entire intrinsic minimal graphs in the Heisenberg group are not perimeter minimizing.
We present a characterization of minimal cones of class $C^2$ and $C^1$ in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$, with an additional set of examples of minimal cones that are not of class $C^1$.
We show that for every subset X of a closed surface M^2 and every basepoint x_0, the natural homomorphism from the fundamental group to the first shape homotopy group, is injective. In particular, if X is a proper compact subset of M^2,…
We construct the first examples of rationally convex surfaces in the complex plane with hyperbolic complex tangencies. In fact, we give two very different types of rationally convex surfaces: those that admit analytic fillings by…
In this paper we study the topology of compact manifolds of positive isotropic curvature (PIC). There are many examples of non-simply connected compact manifolds with positive isotropic curvature. We prove that the fundamental group of a…
We prove the coarea formula for Lipschitz maps from the subriemannian $n$th Heisenberg group $\mathbb H_n$ to $\mathbb R^{2n}$. Our result is new even when $n=1$ and provides the simplest vector-valued instance of the coarea formula in…
We begin a systematic study of these spaces, initially following along the lines of Eberlein's comprehensive study of the Riemannian case. In particular, we integrate the geodesic equation, discuss the structure of the isometry group, and…
