We develop the boundary theory of rough CAT(0) spaces, a class of spaces that contains both Gromov hyperbolic and CAT(0) spaces. The resulting theory generalizes the common features of the Gromov boundary of a Gromov hyperbolic space and…

We prove a lower bound for the first Steklov eigenvalue of embedded minimal hypersurfaces with free boundary in a compact $n$-dimensional manifold which has nonnegative Ricci curvature and strictly convex boundary. When $n=3$, this implies…

Following Matveev, a k-normal surface in a triangulated 3-manifold is a generalization of both normal and (octagonal) almost normal surfaces. Using spines, complexity, and Turaev-Viro invariants of 3-manifolds, we prove the following…

We establish a relation between the "large r" asymptotics of the Turaev-Viro invariants $TV_r$ and the Gromov norm of 3-manifolds. We show that for any orientable, compact 3-manifold $M$, with (possibly empty) toroidal boundary, $\log |TV_r…

Given an injective amalgam at the level of fundamental groups and a specific 3-manifold, is there a corresponding geometric-topological decomposition of a given 4-manifold, in a stable sense? We find an algebraic-topological splitting…

We prove an extension of Milnor-Wood inequalities to a geometric situation. We study representations of the fundamental group of a compact manifold into the isometry group of a product of rank one spaces of the same dimension and show an…

In 2014, Gromov vaguely conjectured that a sequence of manifolds with nonnegative scalar curvature should have a subsequence which converges in some weak sense to a limit space with some generalized notion of nonnegative scalar curvature.…

We prove that compact 3-manifolds $M$ of constant curvature +1 with boundary a minimal surface are locally naturally parametrized by the conformal class of the boundary metric $\gamma$ in the Teichmuller space of $\partial M$, when…

We find classes of projective manifolds that are elliptic in the sense of Gromov and such that the affine cones over these manifolds also are elliptic off their vertices. For example, the latter holds for any generalized flag manifold of…

We prove an additivity property for the normalized Seiberg-Witten invariants with respect to the universal abelian cover of those 3-manifolds, which are obtained via negative rational Dehn surgeries along connected sum of algebraic knots.…

We obtain generalized Wintgen inequalities for submanifolds in conformally flat manifolds. We give some applications for submanifolds in a Riemannian manifold of quasi-constant curvature. Equality cases are also considered.

In this paper, we develop a new index theory for manifolds with polyhedral boundary. As an application, we prove Gromov's dihedral extremality conjecture regarding comparisons of scalar curvatures, mean curvatures and dihedral angles…

We prove there exists a compact embedded minimal surface in a complete finite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifold $\mathcal{N}$. We also obtain a least area, incompressible, properly embedded, finite topology, $2$-sided surface. We prove a…

We give estimates of the Gromov norm of the top dimensional class in $H_c^4(\mathrm{Isom}(\mathbb{H}_{\mathbb{C}}^2);\mathbb{R})$. As a consequence, we obtain an explicit upper bound for the simplicial volume of closed oriented manifolds…

We prove that a complete hyperbolic 3-manifold of finite volume does not admit a properly embedded noncompact surface of finite topology with constant mean curvature greater than or equal to 1.

We find conditions which ensure that the topological complexity of a closed manifold $M$ with abelian fundamental group is nonmaximal, and see through examples that our conditions are sharp. This generalizes results of Costa and Farber on…

The purpose of this report is to acknowledge the influence of M. Gromov's vision of geometry on our own works. It is two-fold: in the first part we aim at describing some results, in dimension 3, around the question: which open 3-manifolds…

We study the generalized existence of extremizers for the sharp $p$-Sobolev inequality on noncompact Riemannian manifolds in connection with nonnegative curvature and Euclidean volume growth assumptions. Assuming a nonnegative Ricci…

In this note we give an answer to a question about mixed volumes asked by Gromov in his paper "Convex Sets and Kahler Manifolds". For reader's convenience we remind definitions and some of the properties of mixed volumes and mixed…

In this note, we present a refinement of the well-known AM-GM inequality. We use this improved inequalty to establish corresponding inequalities on Hilbert space. We also give some refinements of the Kantorovich inequality.
