In this paper we compute the Hausdorff distance between sets of continuous curves and sets of piecewise constant or linear discretizations. These sets are Sobolev balls given by the continuous or discrete $L^p$-norm of the derivatives. We…

Suppose T is a Heegaard splitting surface for a compact orientable 3-manifold M, and S is a reducing sphere for M. In 1968 Haken showed that there is then also a reducing sphere S* for the Heegaard splitting. That is, S* is a reducing…

In this paper we study variations of the Hopf theorem concerning continuous maps $f$ of a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $n$ to $\mathbb{R}^n$. We investigate the case when $M$ is a closed convex $n$-dimensional surface and…

Inspired by questions of convergence in continued fraction theory, Erd\H{o}s, Piranian and Thron studied the possible sets of divergence for arbitrary sequences of M\"obius maps acting on the Riemann sphere, $S^2$. By identifying $S^2$ with…

We show that the perimeter of the convex hull of finitely many disks lying in the hyperbolic or Euclidean plane, or in a hemisphere does not increase when the disks are rearranged so that the distances between their centers do not increase.…

Suppose $S$ is a closed, oriented surface of genus at least two. This paper investigates the geometry of the homology multicurve complex, $\mathcal{HC}(S,\alpha)$, of $S$; a complex closely related to complexes studied by…

Let $T$ be a separating incompressible torus in a 3-manifold $M$. Assuming that a genus $g$ Heegaard splitting $V \cup_S W$ can be positioned nicely with respect to $T$ (e.g. $V \cup_S W$ is strongly irreducible), we obtain an upper bound…

Let G be a simple, connected graph on n vertices. Let d_G(u,v) denote the distance between vertices u and v in G. A subgraph H of G is isometric if d_H(u,v)=d_G(u,v) for every u,v in V(H). We say that G is a distance-preserving graph if G…

We prove that all hierarchically hyperbolic spaces have finite asymptotic dimension and obtain strong bounds on these dimensions. One application of this result is to obtain the sharpest known bound on the asymptotic dimension of the…

We show that uniform lattices of isometries of products of real hyperbolic spaces act properly discontinuously and cocompactly on a median space. For lattices in products of at least two factors, this is the strongest degree of…

Let $S_g$ denote a closed, orientable surface of genus $g \geq 2$ and $\mathcal{C}(S_g)$ be the associated curve complex. The mapping class group of $S_g$, $Mod(S_g)$ acts on $\mathcal{C}(S_g)$ by isometries. Since Dehn twists about certain…

We give an upper bound for the Reidemeister-Singer distance between two Heegaard splittings in terms of the genera and the number of cusp points of the product map of Morse functions for the splittings. It suggests that a certain…

In the present paper we study the original Gromov-Hausdorff distance between real normed spaces. In the first part of the paper we prove that two finite-dimensional real normed spaces on a finite Gromov-Hausdorff distance are isometric to…

We study left-invariant distances on Lie groups for which there exists a one-parameter family of homothetic automorphisms. The main examples are Carnot groups, in particular the Heisenberg group with the standard dilations. We are…

Let ${\mathcal H}$ be the group of isotopy classes of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of $S^3$ that preserve a Heegaard splitting of genus two. In this paper, we use a tree in the barycentric subdivision of the disk complex of a…

We use a neck stretching argument for holomorphic curves to produce symplectic disks of small area and Maslov class with boundary on Lagrangian submanifolds of nonpositive curvature. Applications include the proof of Audin's conjecture on…

This paper presents a new proof of the Giroux Correspondence for tight contact $3$-manifolds using techniques from Heegaard splittings and convex surface theory. We introduce tight Heegaard splittings, which generalise the Heegaard…

A smooth embedding of a closed $3$-manifold $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^4$ may generically be composed with projection to the fourth coordinate to determine a Morse function on $M$ and hence a Heegaard splitting $M=X\cup_\Sigma Y$. However, starting…

The ample cone of a compact Kahler $n$-manifold $M$ is the intersection of its Kahler cone and the real subspace generated by integer (1,1)-classes. Its isotropic boundary is the set of all points $\eta$ on its boundary such that $\int_M…

We prove a generalization of Gromov's symplectic non-squeezing theorem for the case of Hilbert spaces. Our approach is based on filling almost complex Hilbert spaces by complex discs partially extending Gromov's results on existence of…
