In this article we consider the action of affine group and time rescaling on planar quadratic differential systems. We construct a system of representatives of the orbits of systems with at least five invariant lines, including the line at…

A Moebius system is an ergodic fibred system $(B,T)$ (see \citer5) defined on an interval $B=[a,b]$ with partition $(J_k),k\in I,#I\geq 2$ such that $Tx=\frac{c_k+d_kx}{a_k+b_kx}$, $x\in J_k$ and $T|_{J_k}$ is a bijective map from $J_k$…

We show that every homomorphism from a one-dimensional Peano continuum to a planar Peano continuum is induced by a continuous map up to conjugation. We then prove that the topological structure of the space of points at which a planar Peano…

We consider convex maps f:R^n -> R^n that are monotone (i.e., that preserve the product ordering of R^n), and nonexpansive for the sup-norm. This includes convex monotone maps that are additively homogeneous (i.e., that commute with the…

We prove that if $G\subset\text{Diff}^{1}(\mathbb{R}^2)$ is an Abelian subgroup generated by a family of commuting diffeomorphisms of the plane, all of which are $C^{1}$-close to the identity in the strong $C^{1}$-topology, and if there…

The ordinary differential equation $\dot{x}(t)=f(x(t)), \; t \geq 0 $, for $f$ measurable, is not sufficiently regular to guarantee existence of solutions. To remedy this we may relax the problem by replacing the function $f$ with its…

Given a finite simple graph G, let G' be its barycentric refinement: it is the graph in which the vertices are the complete subgraphs of G and in which two such subgraphs are connected, if one is contained into the other. If L(0)=0<L(1) <=…

Let V, W be real algebraic varieties (that is, up to isomorphism, real algebraic sets), and let X be a subset of V. A map f from X into W is said to be regular if it can be extended to a regular map defined on some Zariski locally closed…

Fessler and Gutierrez \cite{Fe,Gu} proved that if a non-singular planar map has Jacobian matrix without eigenvalues in $(0,+\infty)$, then it is injective. We prove that the same holds replacing $(0,+\infty)$ with any unbounded curve…

In this paper, we consider two ways of breaking a graph's symmetry: distinguishing labelings and fixing sets. A distinguishing labeling $\phi$ of $G$ colors the vertices of $G$ so that the only automorphism of the labeled graph $(G, \phi)$…

We show various criteria to verify if a given nested fractal has a good labeling property, inter alia we present a characterization of GLP for fractals with an odd number of essential fixed points. We show a convenient reduction of area to…

We say that a fixed point of a diffeomorphism is non-degenerate if 1 is not an eigenvalue of the linearization at the fixed point. We use pseudo-holomorphic curves techniques to prove the following: the inclusion map $$i: \text{Diff} ^{1}…

Let $P$ be a set of $n\geq 2$ points in general position in $R^2$. The edge disjointness graph $D(P)$ of $P$ is the graph whose vertices are all the closed straight line segments with endpoints in $P$, two of which are adjacent in $D(P)$ if…

Let $\mathcal{C}(S^{m})$ denote the set of continuous maps from the unit sphere $S^{m}$ in $\mathbb{R}^{m+1}$ into itself endowed with the supremum norm. We prove that the set $\{f^n: f\in \mathcal{C}(S^{m})~\text{and}~n\ge 2\}$ of iterated…

An edge colouring of a graph is called distinguishing if there is no non-trivial automorphism which preserves it. We prove that every at most countable, finite or infinite, connected regular graph of order at least $7$ admits a…

We give synthetic proofs of many new results in triangle geometry, focusing especially on fixed points of certain affine maps which are defined in terms of the cevian triangle $DEF$ of a point $P$ with respect to a given triangle $ABC$, as…

A reparametrization (of a continuous path) is given by a surjective weakly increasing self-map of the unit interval. We show that the monoid of reparametrizations (with respect to compositions) can be understood via ``stop-maps'' that allow…

Consider a multimodal interval map $f$ of $C^3$ with non-flat critical points. We establish several characterizations of the map $f$ is quasi-symmetrically conjugated to a piecewise affine map in the case $f$ is topologically exact and all…

Let $q$ be a prime and $A$ an elementary abelian group of order at least $q^3$ acting by automorphisms on a finite $q'$-group $G$. It is proved that if $|\gamma_{\infty}(C_{G}(a))|\leq m$ for any $a\in A^{\#}$, then the order of…

A graph is reducible if it is the lexicographic product of two smaller non-trivial graphs. It is well-known a 1-planar graph with $n ~(\ge3)$ vertices has at most $4n-8$ edges, and a graph $G$ with $n$ vertices is optimal if $G$ has exactly…
