It is well-known that a celebrated J\"{o}rgens-Calabi-Pogorelov theorem for Monge-Amp\`ere equations states that any classical (viscosity) convex solution of $\det(D^2u)=1$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ must be a quadratic polynomial. Therefore, it is…

A compactness theorem is proved for a family of K\"{a}hler surfaces with constant scalar curvature and volume bounded from below, diameter bounded from above, Ricci curvature bounded and the signature bounded from below. Furthermore, a…

In this paper, we proved that any 2-convex solution $u$ of $\sigma_2(D^2u)=1$ with a quadratic growth must be a quadratic polynomial in $\mathbb{R}^n\ (n\geq 3 )$ by using a Pogorelov estimate and the global gradient estimate. And we give a…

In this paper, we give a new proof of a celebrated theorem of J\"orgens which states that every classical convex solution of \[ \det\nabla^2 u (x)=1\quad {in} \mathbb{R}^2 \] has to be a second order polynomial. Our arguments do not use…

We prove that if a framework of a graph is neighborhood affine rigid in $d$-dimensions (or has the stronger property of having an equilibrium stress matrix of rank $n-d-1$) then it has an affine flex (an affine, but non Euclidean, transform…

We show that every general semiconvex entire solution to the sigma-2 equation is a quadratic polynomial. A decade ago, this result was shown for almost convex solutions.

We investigate how to find generic and globally rigid realizations of graphs in $\mathbb{R}^d$ based on elementary geometric observations. Our arguments lead to new proofs of a combinatorial characterization of the global rigidity of graphs…

In this work, we extend the robust version of the Sylvester-Gallai theorem, obtained by Barak, Dvir, Wigderson and Yehudayoff, and by Dvir, Saraf and Wigderson, to the case of quadratic polynomials. Specifically, we prove that if…

We prove that any entire convex $C^2$-solution to a Hessian type equation with a subquadratic growth at infinity is an affine function.

We show that any graph that is generically globally rigid in $\mathbb{R}^d$ has a realization in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that is both generic and universally rigid. This also implies that the graph also must have a realization in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that…

We study a modified notion of Ollivier's coarse Ricci curvature on graphs introduced by Lin, Lu, and Yau in [11]. We establish a rigidity theorem for complete graphs that shows a connected finite simple graph is complete if and only if the…

We consider entire solutions $u$ to the minimal surface equation in $R^N$, with $ N\ge8,$ and we prove the following sharp result : if $N-7$ partial derivatives $ \frac{\partial u }{\partial {x_j}}$ are bounded on one side (not necessarily…

In this article, we investigate four-dimensional gradient shrinking Ricci solitons close to a K\"ahler model. The first theorem could be considered as a rigidity result for the K\"ahler-Ricci soliton structure on $\mathbb{S}^2\times…

Tanigawa (2016) showed that vertex-redundant rigidity of a graph implies its global rigidity in arbitrary dimension. We extend this result to periodic graphs under fixed lattice representations. A periodic graph is vertex-redundantly rigid…

In this paper, we consider the entire solutions to the parabolic $2$-Hessian equations of the form $-u_t\sigma_2(D^2 u)=1$ in $\mathbb{R}^n\times (-\infty,0]$. We prove some rigidity theorems for the parabolic $2$-Hessian equations in…

In this paper we consider semilinear equations $-\Delta u=f(u)$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions on certain convex domains of the two dimensional model spaces of constant curvature. We prove that a positive, semi-stable solution $u$ has…
