Uniform waist inequalities proven for manifolds with Kazhdan groups in codimension two.

problem Proving uniform waist inequalities for manifolds with specific group properties.
method Using finite covers and Cheeger inequality for manifolds with Kazhdan fundamental groups.
result Finite covers of manifolds with Kazhdan groups satisfy uniform waist inequalities in codimension two.

We introduce two numerical invariants, the waist and the trunk of knots. The waist of a closed incompressible surface in the complement of a knot is defined as the minimal intersection number of all compressing disks for the surface in the 3-sphere and the knot. Then the waist of a knot is defined as the maximal waist …

The abstract applies waist inequality to dynamical systems and entropy.

problem Understanding the relationship between waist inequality and dynamical systems.
method Applying waist inequality to entropy and mean dimension of dynamical systems.
result Maps between dynamical systems have positive conditional metric mean dimension under certain conditions.

The waist inequality states that for a continuous map from S^n to R^q, not all fibers can have small (n-q)-dimensional volume. We construct maps for which most fibers have small (n-q)-dimensional volume and all fibers have bounded (n-q)-dimensional volume.

Consider a non-planar orientable minimal surface S in a slab which is possibly with genus or with more than two boundary components. We show that there exists a catenoidal waist W in the slab whose flux has the same vertical component as S such that Area(S)>= Area(W), provided the intersections of S with horizontal pla…
