Voronoi cells and the dual complexes in Riemannian manifolds

I would like to use some "intuitively clear" properties of Voronoi cells in general Riemannian manifolds, but I have trouble finding references. Let $(X,d)$ be a connected Riemannian ...

Retraction of a Riemannian manifold with boundary to its cut locus

This question is edited following the comment of Joseph. He pointed out that the main object of the first version of this question is the cut locus. Recall that the cut locus of a set $S$ in a ...

Information about Milnor conjecture

I'm a student of mathematics and I need know about the status of the Milnor conjecture (if there are partial results or if someone solved that). The statement is: A complete Riemannian manifold with ...

Teichmüller space on non-orientable closed surfaces

It is known that any closed orientable surface of genus $g \geq 2$ admits a hyperbolic metric, and the Teichmüller space of such metrics has dimension $6g - 6$. I was wondering if there is a ...

Quasi-isometric embedding of graphs in non-compact riemannian surfaces

Given a complete riemannian surface $(S,m)$, where $S$ is homeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^2$, I would like to find a weighted graph $G$ (which means a graph with real non-negative weights on the edges), ...

Symmetric line spaces are homeomorphic to Euclidean spaces

For points $x,y,z$ of a metric space $(X,d)$ we write $\mathbf Mxyz$ and say that $y$ is a midpoint between $x$ and $z$ if $d(x,z)=d(x,y)+d(y,z)$ and $d(x,y)=d(y,z)$. Definition: A metric space $(X,d)$...

Connection between a function and its usage in geometry [closed]

I know nothing about geometry, but I found a function which seems to have something to do with geometry. This function is, $$f(x,y,z) = \dfrac{(x,y,z)}{\sqrt{1 + x^2 + y^2 + z^2}}$$ where $x,y,z$ is ...
