Isometric embedding of 4-element metric spaces into Riemannian manifolds and the curvature
I came across this question Preferred embedding of finite metric spaces in riemaniann manifolds of given dimension. In one of the answers it was stated that it is always possible to isometrically ...

Exponential map for non-smooth Finsler manifolds
Context
I'm interested in studying reversible Finsler manifolds which do not have the strong convexity of the Hessian property (that is the Finsler function is a regular norm on every tangent space). ...

A Riemannian metric on the plane such that the intersection of every two discs is a disc, again
Is there a Riemannian metric on $\mathbb{R}^2$ (or a $2$ dimensional manifold) such that the intersection of every two open discs is an open disc, again?
As linear version of this question we ask:
...

Cover a set with balls centered at smooth functions (Ascoli theorem)
Assume $M$ to be a compact $n$-dimensional manifold, endowed with a complete metric.
Let us consider the space $C^\infty(M)$ endowed with the standard $C^\infty$ topology, i.e. generated by the ...

Gromov-Hausdorff relative compactness without curvature restrictions
A famous theorem of Gromov says that the set of compact Riemannian manifolds with $Ric \geq c$ and $\text{diam} \leq D$ is relatively compact in the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. Chapter 10 of the book by ...

Does smallness of Gromov-Hausdorff distance on scale 2 imply smallness on GH distance on scale 1?
Let $(M,g)$ be a Riemannian manifold and $C(Y)$ be a metric cone over $Y$. Let $B_r$ denote the geodesic ball of radius $r$ centered at a fixed point $x$ in $M$ and $C_r$ denote the metric ball of ...
