Note on the Hölder norm estimate of the function $x\sin(1/x)$
In this paper, we prove the following inequality: for any $x, y>0$, there holds $$\big|x\sin\frac{1}{x} - y\sin\frac{1}{y} \big| \leq \sqrt{2|x - y|}.$$

An extension of Perelman's soul theorem for singular spaces
In this paper, we study open complete metric spaces with non-negative curvature. Among other things, we establish an extension of Perelman's soul theorem for possibly singular spaces: "Let X be a complete, non-compact, finite dimensional Alexandrov space with non-negative curvature. Suppose that X has no boundary and has positive curvature on a non-empty open subset. Then X must be a contractible space". The proof of this result uses the detailed analysis of concavity of distance functions and Busemann functions on singular spaces with non-negative curvature. We will introduce a family of angular excess functions to measure convexity and extrinsic curvature of convex hypersurfaces in singular spaces. We also derive a new comparison for trapezoids in non-negatively curved spaces, which led to desired convexity estimates for the proof of our new soul theorem.

An optimal extension of Perelman's comparison theorem for quadrangles and its applications
In this paper we discuss an extension of Perelman's comparison for quadrangles. Among applications of this new comparison theorem, we study the equidistance evolution of hypersurfaces in Alexandrov spaces with non-negative curvature. We show that, in certain cases, the equidistance evolution of hypersurfaces become totally convex relative to a bigger sub-domain. An optimal extension of 2nd variational formula for geodesics by Petrunin will be derived for the case of non-negative curvature. In addition, we also introduced the generalized second fundament forms for subsets in Alexandrov spaces. Using this new notion, we will propose an approach to study two open problems in Alexandrov geometry.
