We consider the scattering and lens rigidity of compact surfaces with boundary that have a trapped geodesic. In particular we show that the flat cylinder and the flat M\"obius strip are determined by their lens data. We also see by example that the f
This paper considers metric balls $B(p,R)$ in two dimensional Riemannian manifolds when $R$ is less than half the convexity radius. We prove that $Area(B(p,R)) \geq \frac{8}{\pi}R^2$. This inequality has long been conjectured for $R$ less than half t

This paper considers Riemannian metrics on two dimensional disks where all geodesics are minimizing. A sharp reverse isoperimetric inequality is proven. This in turn yields near optimal bounds for the area of disks as well as near optimal upper bound

We consider compact Riemannian manifolds ( M , ∂ M , g ) (M,\partial M,g) with boundary ∂ M \partial M and metric g g on which a finite group Γ \Gamma acts freely. We determine the extent to which certain rigidity properties of ( M , ∂ M , g )

A fully reversed (FR) sequence of rotations is defined as a series of rotations of a free rigid body about its body-fixed axes such that the rotation about each axis is fully reversed at the end of the sequence. Due to the non-commutative property of

We show that the metric of non-positively curved graph manifolds is determined by its geodesic flow. More precisely, we show that if the geodesic flows of two non-positively curved graph manifolds are C 0 conjugate, then the spaces are isometric.

We show that the volume of any Riemannian metric on a three sphere is bounded below by the length of the shortest closed curve that links its antipodal image. In particular, the volume is bounded below by the minimum of the length of the shortest clo

Here we present a method for the coupled design of four freeform reflective surfaces that will control a bundle of rays. By this, we mean that given an input bundle of rays, we can construct an optical system that will map it to a given output bundle

This paper considers the boundary rigidity problem for a compact convex Riemannian manifold ( M , g ) (M,g) with boundary ∂ M \partial M whose curvature satisfies a general upper bound condition. This includes all nonpositively curved manifolds and

We construct a pair of finite piecewise Euclidean 2-complexes with nonpositive curvature which are homeomorphic but whose universal covers have nonhomeomorphic ideal boundaries, settling a question of Gromov.
