Hausdorff dimension and failure of synthetic curvature bounds in the sub-Lorentzian Heisenberg group
Samuël Borza, Chiara Rigoni, Omar Zoghlami
We study the geodesics, Hausdorff dimension, and curvature bounds of the sub-Lorentzian Heisenberg group. Through an elementary variational approach, we provide a new proof of the…

Failure of the measure contraction property via quotients in higher-step sub-Riemannian structures
Samuël Borza, Luca Rizzi
We prove that the synthetic Ricci curvature lower bound known as the measure contraction property (MCP) can fail in sub-Riemannian geometry. This may happen beyond step two, if the…

Optimal transport on the sub-Lorentzian Heisenberg group
Samuël Borza, Wilhelm Klingenberg, Patrick Wood
We investigate the synthetic metric spacetime structure of the sub-Lorentzian Heisenberg group and we study the optimal transport problem in this space. The sub-Lorentzian version…
