We prove various inequalities measuring how far from an isometry a local map from a manifold of high curvature to a manifold of low curvature must be. We consider the cases of volume-preserving, conformal and quasi-conformal maps. The…

We show that any space with a positive upper curvature bound has in a small neighborhood of any point a closely related metric with a negative upper curvature bound.

We consider mappings satisfying an upper bound for the distortion of families of curves. We establish lower bounds for the distortion of distances under such mappings. As applications, we obtain theorems on the discreteness of the limit…

This paper studies the regularity of constrained Willmore immersions into $\R^{m\ge3}$ locally around both "regular" points and around branch points, where the immersive nature of the map degenerates. We develop local asymptotic expansions…

We relate the (non)existence of lower scalar curvature bounds to the existence of certain distance-decreasing maps. We also give a sufficient condition for the existence of a limiting scalar curvature measure in the backward limit of a…

We prove that a metric measure space $(X,d,m)$ satisfying finite dimensional lower Ricci curvature bounds and whose Sobolev space $W^{1,2}$ is Hilbert is rectifiable. That is, a $RCD^*(K,N)$-space is rectifiable, and in particular for…

Hilbert's two-dimensional space-filling curve is appreciated for its good locality-preserving properties and easy implementation for many applications. However, Hilbert did not describe how to generalize his construction to higher…

Quasiconformal maps in the complex plane are homeomorphisms that satisfy certain geometric distortion inequalities; infinitesimally, they map circles to ellipses with bounded eccentricity. The local distortion properties of these maps give…

We investigate the properties of a class of piecewise-fractional maps arising from the introduction of an invariance under rescaling into convex quadratic maps. The subsequent maps are quasiconvex, and pseudoconvex on specific convex cones;…

Open discrete mappings with a modulus condition in metric spaces are considered. Some results related to local behavior of mappings as well as theorems about continuous extension to a boundary are proved.

In this paper, we derive new sharp diameter bounds for distance regular graphs, which better answer a problem raised by Neumaier and Penji\' c in many cases. Our proof is built upon a relation between the diameter and long-scale Ollivier…

We show that the ultralimit of a bounded sequence of Lipschitz maps into pointed metric spaces extends naturally to $p$-bounded sequences of Sobolev maps and that this ultralimit for Sobolev maps enjoys desirable properties. We use this to…

We give a metric characterization of the scalar curvature of a smooth Riemannian manifold, analyzing the maximal distance between $(n+1)$ points in infinitesimally small neighborhoods of a point. Since this characterization is purely in…

We derive integral and sup-estimates for the curvature of stably marginally outer trapped surfaces in a sliced space-time. The estimates bound the shear of a marginally outer trapped surface in terms of the intrinsic and extrinsic curvature…

When a solution to an abstract inverse linear problem on Hilbert space is approximable by finite linear combinations of vectors from the cyclic subspace associated with the datum and with the linear operator of the problem, the solution is…

We study the compactness problem for moduli spaces of holomorphic supercurves which, being motivated by supergeometry, are perturbed such as to allow for transversality. We give an explicit construction of limiting objects for sequences of…

This paper develops a new approach to small time local attainability of smooth manifolds of any dimension, possibly with boundary and to prove H\"older continuity of the minimum time function. We give explicit pointwise conditions of any…

We describe the Hilbert schemes parametrizing curves on a cubic threefold of degree at most 5. In a forthcoming paper, we use this description to give a new proof and extension of a theorem of Iliev, Markushevich and Tikhimirov.

We prove the global existence of Dirac-wave maps with curvature term with small initial data on globally hyperbolic manifolds of arbitrary dimension which satisfy a suitable growth condition. In addition, we also prove a global existence…

We establish a localized Bochner-type rigidity theorem for harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. Let $f : (M,g) \to (\overline{M},\overline{g})$ be a harmonic map from a compact manifold. Instead of assuming a global nonpositivity…
