The goal of this paper is to define and inspect a metric version of the universal path space and study its application to purely 2-unrectifiable spaces, in particular the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$. The construction of the universal…

We prove that the boundary of an almost minimizer of the intrinsic perimeter in a plentiful group can be approximated by intrinsic Lipschitz graphs. Plentiful groups are Carnot groups of step~$2$ whose center of the Lie algebra is generated…

We use the criteria of Lalonde and McDuff to determine a new class of examples of length minimizing paths in the group $Ham(M)$. For a compact symplectic manifold $M$ of dimension two or four, we show that a path in $Ham(M)$, generated by…

We prove that the multiplication maps $\mathbb{s}^n \times \mathbb{s}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{s}^n$ ($n = 1, 3, 7$) for unit complex, quaternion and octonion numbers are, up to isometries of domain and range, the unique Lipschitz constant…

In this paper we first show that the necessary condition introduced in our previous paper is also a sufficient condition for a path to be a geodesic in the group $\Ham^c(M)$ of compactly supported Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms. This…

Given a Hopf fibration of a round sphere by parallel great subspheres, we prove that the projection map to the base space is, up to isometries of domain and range, the unique Lipschitz constant minimizer in its homotopy class. Similarly,…

We prove a compactness result for classes of actions of many small categories on quantum compact metric spaces by Lipschitz linear maps, for the topology of the covariant Gromov-Hausdorff propinquity. In particular, our result applies to…

We introduce a metric homotopy theory, which we call Moderately Discontinuous Homotopy, designed to capture Lipschitz properties of metric singular subanalytic germs. It matches with the Moderately Discontinuous Homology theory receantly…

In \cite{CHMY04}, we studied $p$-mean curvature and the associated $p$-minimal surfaces in the Heisenberg group from the viewpoint of PDE and differential geometry. In this paper, we look into the problem through the variational…

We use the criteria of Lalonde and McDuff to show that a path that is generated by a generic autonomous Hamiltonian is length minimizing with respect to the Hofer norm among all homotopic paths provided that it induces no non-constant…

We provide a sufficient condition for the nontriviality of the Lipschitz homotopy group of the Heisenberg group, $\pi_m^{Lip}(H_n)$, in terms of properties of the classical homotopy group of the sphere, $\pi_m(S^n)$. As an application we…

Let $X$ and $Y$ be length metric spaces. Let $\mathcal H^n$ denote the $n$-dimensional Hausdorff measure. The Lipschitz-Volume Rigidity is a property that if there exists a 1-Lipschitz map $f\colon X\to Y$ and $0<\mathcal H^n(X)=\mathcal…

We study the limiting behavior of minimizing $p$-harmonic maps from a bounded Lipschitz domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^{3}$ to a compact connected Riemannian manifold without boundary and with finite fundamental group as $p \nearrow 2$.…

In this paper, we investigate a discrete version of the homotopic distance between two $s$-Lipschitz maps for $s \geq 0$. This distance is defined by specifying a step length $r$ to which some homotopy relation corresponds. In spaces with a…

We obtain existence of minimizers for the $p$-capacity functional defined with respect to a centrally symmetric anisotropy for $1 < p<\infty$, including the case of a crystalline norm in $\mathbb R^N$. The result is obtained by a…

In this paper, for $1<p<\infty$, we obtain the $L^p$-boundedness of the Hilbert transform $H^{\gamma}$ along a variable plane curve $(t,u(x_1, x_2)\gamma(t))$, where $u$ is a Lipschitz function with small Lipschitz norm, and $\gamma$ is a…

Lipschitz and horizontal maps from an $n$-dimensional space into the $(2n+1)$-dimensional Heisenberg group $\H^n$ are abundant, while maps from higher-dimensional spaces are much more restricted. DeJarnette-Haj{\l}asz-Lukyanenko-Tyson…

We study the question: when are Lipschitz mappings dense in the Sobolev space $W^{1,p}(M,\mathbf{H}^n)$? Here $M$ denotes a compact Riemannian manifold with or without boundary, while $\mathbf{H}^n$ denotes the $n$th Heisenberg group…

Homotopy connectedness theorems for complex submanifolds of homogeneous spaces (sometimes referred to as theorems of Barth-Lefshetz type) have been established by a number of authors. Morse Theory on the space of paths lead to an elegant…

In this paper we provide a criterion for the quasi-autonomous Hamiltonian path (``Hofer's geodesic'') on arbitrary closed symplectic manifolds $(M,\omega)$ to be length minimizing in its homotopy class in terms of the spectral invariants…
