We provide examples of non-locally compact geodesic Ptolemy metric spaces which are not uniquely geodesic. On the other hand, we show that locally compact, geodesic Ptolemy metric spaces are uniquely geodesic. Moreover, we prove that a metric space is CAT(0) if and only if it is Busemann convex and Ptolemy.

We show that the commensurator of any quasiconvex abelian subgroup in a biautomatic group is small, in the sense that it has finite image in the abstract commensurator of the subgroup. Using this criterion we exhibit groups that are CAT(0) but not bi automatic. These groups also resolve a number of other questions concerning CAT(0) groups.

In this paper, we prove a Prekopa-Leindler type inequality of the $L_p$ Brunn-Minkowski inequality. It extends an inequality proved by Das Gupta [8] and Klartag [16], and thus recovers the Prekopa-Leindler inequality. In addition, we prove a functional $L_p$ Minkowski inequality.
Let $K$ be a compact convex domain in the Euclidean plane. The mixed area $A(K,-K)$ of $K$ and $-K$ can be bounded from above by $1/(6sqrt{3})L(K)^2$, where $L(K)$ is the perimeter of $K$. This was proved by Ulrich Betke and Wolfgang Weil (1991). The y also showed that if $K$ is a polygon, then equality holds if and only if $K$ is a regular triangle. We prove that among all convex domains, equality holds only in this case, as conjectured by Betke and Weil. This is achieved by establishing a stronger stability result for the geometric inequality $6sqrt{3}A(K,-K)le L(K)^2$.
In a seminal paper Volumen und Oberflache (1903), Minkowski introduced the basic notion of mixed volumes and the corresponding inequalities that lie at the heart of convex geometry. The fundamental importance of characterizing the extremals of these inequalities was already emphasized by Minkowski himself, but has to date only been resolved in special cases. In this paper, we completely settle the extremals of Minkowskis quadratic inequality, confirming a conjecture of R. Schneider. Our proof is based on the representation of mixed volumes of arbitrary convex bodies as Dirichlet forms associated to certain highly degenerate elliptic operators. A key ingredient of the proof is a quantitative rigidity property associated to these operators.
We prove that for every $r>0$ if a non-positively curved $(p,q)$-map $M$ contains no flat submaps of radius $r$, then the area of $M$ does not exceed $Crn$ for some constant $C$. This strengthens a theorem of Ivanov and Schupp. We show that an infini te $(p,q)$-map which tessellates the plane is quasi-isometric to the Euclidean plane if and only if the map contains only finitely many non-flat vertices and faces. We also generalize Ivanov and Schupps result to a much larger class of maps, namely to maps with angle functions.
