Quasiconformal mappings on the Grushin plane

, 2017
We prove that a self-homeomorphism of the Grushin plane is quasisymmetric if and only if it is metrically quasiconformal and if and only if it is geometrically quasiconformal.

Curvature exponent and geodesic dimension on Sard-regular Carnot groups

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces
In this study, we characterize the geodesic dimension NGEO{N}_{{\rm{GEO}}} and give a new lower bound to the curvature exponent NCE{N}_{{\rm{CE}}} on Sard-regular Carnot groups.

Invertible Carnot Groups [PDF]

, 2016
We characterize Carnot groups admitting a 1-quasiconformal metric inversion as the Lie groups of Heisenberg type whose Lie algebras satisfy the $J^2$-condition, thus characterizing a special case of inversion invariant bi-Lipschitz homogeneity.

Partial Isometries of a Sub-Riemannian Manifold

, 2012
In this paper, we obtain the following generalisation of isometric $C^1$-immersion theorem of Nash and Kuiper. Let $M$ be a smooth manifold of dimension $m$ and $H$ a rank $k$ subbundle of the tangent bundle $TM$ with a Riemannian metric $g_H$.

On an evolution equation in sub-Finsler geometry

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces
We study the gradient flow of an energy with mixed homogeneity, which is at the interface of Finsler and sub-Riemannian geometry.

On the role of embeddability in conformal pseudo-hermitian geometry

Analysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces
In this article, we review some recent results about the role of embeddability in conformal CR (Cauchy-Riemann) geometry. We will show how this condition enters in the second variation of the pseudo-hermitian counterpart of the Einstein-Hilbert action ...

Comparing three possible hypoelliptic Laplacians on the 5-dimensional Cartan group via div-curl type estimates

Advanced Nonlinear Studies
On general Carnot groups, the definition of a possible hypoelliptic Hodge-Laplacian on forms using the Rumin complex has been considered in (M. Rumin, “Differential geometry on C-C spaces and application to the Novikov-Shubin numbers of nilpotent Lie ...

Projection Methods for some Constrained Systems [PDF]

, 2011
This article is concerned with a geometric tool given by a pair of projector operators defined by almost product structures on finite dimensional manifolds, polarized by a distribution of constant rank and also endowed with some geometric structures ...
