Let $M$ be a compact smooth Riemannian manifold. Then it admits a triangulation, i.e. a finite simplicial complex $K$ which is homeomorphic to $M$. Any such simplicial complex carries a natural metric ...

In the page 10 of the paper "Filling Riemannian manifolds" by Gromov (ProjetEuclid link), the author proves the following inequality (1.2) relating the systole and the filling radius of manifolds. $$\...

Let $M$ be a compact orientable $n$ dimensional Riemannian manifold. Is there a triangulation of $M$ such that every $k$ dimensional face of each simplex is a totally geodesic submanifold, $\forall k ...

Consider the standard Riemannian 2-sphere $S$, equipped with a geodesic triangulation $T$. Let $L(S,T)$ be the space of homeomorphisms of $S$ which map $T$ to a geodesic triangulation. What is the ...

Let $M$ be a smooth closed manifold and $T$ be a triangulation of $M$. Endow each simplex of $T$ with the Euclidean metric making it a regular simplex; this gives a piecewise Euclidean metric $g_0$ on ...
