Sequence of 2-cylinders converging to a segment in the Gromov-Hausdorff metric

Let $\{C_i\}_{i=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of (compact) 2-dimensional cylinders with smooth Riemannian metrics with Gauss curvature at least $-1$ and geodesically convex boundary (equivalently, the ...

Collapse of Moebius bands with bounded below Gauss curvature and convex boundary

Let $\{M_i\}_{i=1}^\infty$ be a sequence of (compact) Moebius bands with Riemannian metrics with Gauss curvature at least $-1$ and such that the boundaries are geodesically convex (equivalently, the ...

Rigidity for convex surfaces in elliptic/hyperbolic space

From Alexandrov's work we know that any metric on the sphere with lower curvature bound $\kappa$ (in the sense of Alexandrov) can be realized as a closed convex surface (i.e. boundary of a compact ...

Lower estimate on length of boundary of 2d Riemannian surface

Fix constants $\kappa\in \mathbb{R}, D>0,A>0$. Does there exist a constant $C>0$ depending on $\kappa, D, A$ only such that for any compact 2-dimensional Riemannian surface (or more generally ...
