Domains of type (A) are Lipschitz?
In this article and in the book of Ladyzhenskaya et al (1968) - Linear and Quasilinear Elliptic Equations we have the following definition of what is a domain of type (A):
There is no example of a ...

For proper group action on closed Riemannian manifold, must the union of orbits with non-unique closest points to a given point be of 0 volume measure
Let $(M,g)$ be a closed (compact without boundary) Riemannian manifold of finite dimension, with the volume measure $\mu:= \mu(E):=\int_{E}d\operatorname{vol}_g \forall E \in \mathcal{B}(M),$ the ...

Measurability of the union of cut loci along a curve
Let $(M,g)$ be a Riemannian symmetric space and $\alpha(s)$ be a geodesic. Define
$$
U(t)=\cup_{s\in[0,t]}{\rm Cut}(\alpha(s))
$$
as the union of the cut loci ${\rm Cut}(\alpha(s))$ along the curve $\...

What is the limit of a helix as the frequency tends to infinity?
Consider the helix parametrized by $r(t) = (\cos(\omega t), \sin(\omega t), t)$, for a given $\omega > 0$, and $t \in \mathbb{R}$. How can we interpret the limit as $\omega \to \infty?$
My initial ...

Continuity of surface integrals on level sets
Let $\phi:\mathbb{R}^2\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $\phi^{-1}(0)\neq\emptyset$ and $\phi\in C^1(W)$ where $W$ is a compact neighborhood of $\phi^{-1}(0)$, with $\nabla\phi\neq 0$ in $W$. So there is some $...

How to interpret this quote of Lin?
I recently stumbled across a quote of Fang-Hua Lin that I have trouble understanding [1, page 42].
It is a well-known fact that a weakly converging sequence of stationary integral currents may have a ...

Relationship between volume density and area density
Let $\mu(x)dx$ be a measure in $\mathbb{R}^{2n-2}$, where $\mu$ (a $C^\infty$ and positive function) is the density of the volume in the sense that $\DeclareMathOperator{\Vol}{\mathrm{Vol}} \Vol_\mu(...

Behaviour of mass for currents with disjoint supports
I am sorry if this is a basic question, but I don't think in MSE I will receive any answers.
Let $(M^3,g)$ be a compact and oriented Riemannian $3$-manifold. Let $\alpha$ and $\beta$ be the integral ...

If $M$ is a manifold, $x∈M$ and $d(x,ω)=\inf\{t>0:x+tω∈M\}$, does the pushforward of the solid angle measure under $S^2∋ω↦x+d(x,ω)ω$ admit a density?
Let $S^2$ denote the unit 2-sphere, $M$ be a 2-dimensional oriented embedded $C^1$-submanifold of $\mathbb R^3$ with $$d_M(x,\omega):=\inf\left\{t>0:x+t\omega\in M\right\}<\infty\;\;\;\text{for ...

Stokes theorem for manifolds with boundary as disjoint union of submanifolds
Looking at the generalizations of Stokes theorem, I did find a version for manifold with corners, but I was surprised this generalization doesn't contain a simple example such as the cone. So my ...

sequence of graphs converge in the sense of varifold to multiplicity 2 plane
Say in $R^3$, is there a sequence of smooth graphs $f_n$ over some plane P, such that the graphs as submanifolds in $R^3$ converge in the sense of varifold (as Radon measures on $R^3 \times Gr(2,3)$ ) ...

existence of locally translation-invariant Borel measure on Frechet manifolds
It is well known that the only locally finite, translation-invariant Borel measure on an
infinite-dimensional, separable Frechet space is the trivial measure. I am wondering about an analogous ...

Besicovitch Covering Lemma on Manifolds
The classical Besicovitch covering lemma (BCL) asserts that for any $d \geq 1$, there is a constant $N(d)$ with the following property. If $A \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is any subset and $r : A \to (0,R]$ ...
