A standard fact that underlies the Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates on Teichmuller space is the fact that for all triples $(a,b,c)$ of positive real numbers, there exists a unique hyperbolic hexagon whose ...

Let $S$ be a closed hyperbolic surface (i.e. a compact Riemann surface of genus $\geq 2$) and let $P=\{p_1,\ldots,p_m\}$ be a non-empty finite subset of $m$ points in $S$. Let $\pi:\mathbb H\...

The classical Busemann-Feller lemma in Euclidean space says the following. Let $K\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a closed convex set. Then for any point $x\in \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists unique nearest point ...

(Edited again) In the following, for brevity, I will say that $$X\ \ \mathrm{has}\ \ \kappa_{\mathrm{max}}=k$$ if $X$ is a compact ($n$-dimensional with $n\geq2$, with empty boundary) Aleksandrov ...
