This article studies the volume of compact quotients of reductive homogeneous spaces. Let $G/H$ be a reductive homogeneous space and $\Gamma$ a discrete subgroup of $G$ acting properly discontinuously and cocompactly on $G/H$. We prove that…

S. Donaldson introduced a metric on the space of volume forms, with fixed total volume on any compact Riemmanian manifold. With this metric, the space of volume forms formally has non-positive curvature. The geodesic equation is a fully…

We show that non-elliptic prime 3-manifolds satisfy integral approximation for the simplicial volume, i.e., that their simplicial volume equals the stable integral simplicial volume. The proof makes use of integral foliated simplicial…

In this note, we show that the normalized local volume of a non-closed point can be expressed in terms of the normalized local volumes of closed points.

We prove that each closed locally continuum- connected subspace of a finite dimensional topological group is locally compact. This allows us to construct many 1-dimensional metrizable separable spaces that are not homeomorphic to closed…

We prove that all generalised symmetric spaces of compact simple Lie groups are formal in the sense of Sullivan. Nevertheless, many of them, including all the non-symmetric flag manifolds, do not admit Riemannian metrics for which all…

We prove that the locally finite simplicial volume and the Lipschitz simplicial volume are additive with respect to certain gluings of manifolds. In particular, we prove that in dimension $\geq 3$ they are additive with respect to connected…

In this article, we are interested in metric spaces that satisfy a weak non-positive curvature condition in the sense that they admit a conical geodesic bicombing. We show that the analog of a question of Gromov about compactness properties…

We prove that the isoperimetric constant is positive for all symmetric spaces of noncompact type and compute it explicitly.

We prove that the thin parts of arithmetically defined locally symmetric space take up a negligible part of their volume and deduce asymptotic results on their Betti numbers.

We show that complete uniform visibility manifolds of finite volume with sectional curvature $-1 \leq K \leq 0$ have positive simplicial volumes. This implies that their minimal volumes are non-zero.

We study the spectrum of simplicial volume for closed manifolds with fixed fundamental group and relate the gap problem to rationality questions in bounded (co)homology. In particular, we show that in many cases this spectrum has a gap at…

The simplicial volume is a homotopy invariant of oriented closed connected manifolds measuring the efficiency of representing the fundamental class by singular chains with real coefficients. Despite of its topological nature, the simplicial…

In this paper, it is shown that for any closed orientable $3$-manifold with positive simplicial volume, the growth of the Seifert volume of its finite covers is faster than the linear rate. In particular, each closed orientable $3$-manifold…

In this paper, we firstly discuss the question: Is $l_{2}^{\infty}$ homeomorphic to a rectifiable space or a paratopological group? And then, we mainly discuss locally compact rectifiable spaces, and show that a locally compact and…

We provide an estimate of the amenable category of oriented closed connected complete affine manifolds whose fundamental group contains an infinite amenable normal subgroup. As an application we show that all such manifolds have zero…

We use Papasoglu's method of area-minimizing separating sets to give an alternative proof, and explicit constants, for the following theorem of Guth and Braun--Sauer: If $M$ is a closed, oriented, $n$-dimensional manifold, with a Riemannian…

We show that a locally symmetric space of noncompact type and with finite volume is quasi-isometric to the euclidean cone over a finite simplicial complex. A detailed analysis of metric properties yields a proof of a conjecture of Siegel.

We prove that cubical simplicial volume of oriented closed 3-manifolds is equal to one fifth of ordinary simplicial volume.

Gromov and Sormani conjectured that sequences of compact Riemannian manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature and area of minimal surfaces bounded below should have subsequences which converge in the intrinsic flat sense to limit spaces…
