The only Wiedersehen surfaces are the standard round spheres. The conjecture was proven by combining the Berger-Kazdan comparison theorem with A. Weinstein's results for n ...

A (symmetrical) boundary set of radius r and center x_0 is the set of all points x such that |x-x_0|=r. Let x_0 be the origin. In R^1, the boundary set is then the pair of ...

Although the inner shaded region has the same area as the outer shaded annulus, it appears to be larger. Since the rings are equally spaced, A_(inner) = pi·3^2=9pi (1) ...

Any n-dimensional Riemannian manifold can be locally embedded into an (n+1)-dimensional manifold with Ricci curvature Tensor R_(ab)=0. A similar version of the theorem for a ...

Each point in the convex hull of a set S in R^n is in the convex combination of n+1 or fewer points of S.

Consider the set of compact n-Riemannian manifolds M with diameter(M)<=d, Volume(M)>=V, and |K|<=kappa where kappa is the sectional curvature. Then there is a bound on the ...

The closed ball with center x and radius r is defined by B_r(x)={y:|y-x|<=r}.

A closed interval is an interval that includes all of its limit points. If the endpoints of the interval are finite numbers a and b, then the interval {x:a<=x<=b} is denoted ...

An axiomatic theory (such as a geometry) is said to be complete if each valid statement in the theory is capable of being proven true or false.

The five of Hilbert's axioms which concern geometric equivalence.
