In this note a far extension of the Banach fixed point theorem is proved.
In this note we give a short and elementary proof of a more general version of Whitney's theorem that 3-connected planar graphs have a unique embedding in the plane. A consequence of the theorem is that cubic plane graphs cannot be embedded…
We prove a uniformization theorem in complex algebraic geometry.
We investigate the transmission and reflection survival probabilities for the chaotic stadium billiard with two holes placed asymmetrically. Classically, these distributions are shown to have algebraic or exponential decays depending on the…
An technically interesting proof of a known theorem.
Manifold calculus of functors has in recent years been successfully used in the study of the topology of various spaces of embeddings of one manifold in another. Given a space of embeddings, the theory produces a Taylor tower whose purpose…
An embedding theorem for algebraic systems is presented, basing on a certain old ultrafilter construction. As an application, we outline alternative proofs of some results from the theory of PI algebras, and establish some properties of…
We prove that the Birkhoff sums for ``almost every'' relevant observable in the stadium billiard obey a non-standard limit law. More precisely, the usual central limit theorem holds for an observable if and only if its integral along a…

Consider an ergodic unimodular random one-ended planar graph $\G$ of finite expected degree. We prove that it has an isometry-invariant locally finite embedding in the Euclidean plane if and only if it is invariantly amenable. By "locally…
We prove that if a unimodular random graph is almost surely planar and has finite expected degree, then it has a combinatorial embedding into the plane which is also unimodular. This implies the claim in the title immediately by a theorem…
We consider sufficient conditions which guarantee that a planar embedding has a unique fixed point. We study sufficient conditions which imply the appearing of a globally attracting fixed point for such an embedding.
We provide a simple proof of the existence of a planar separator by showing that it is an easy consequence of the circle packing theorem. We also reprove other results on separators, including: (A) There is a simple cycle separator if the…
We prove that for a chainable continuum $X$ and every non-zigzag $x\in X$ there exists a planar embedding $\phi:X\to \phi(X)\subset\mathbb R^2$ such that $\phi(x)$ is accessible, partially answering the question of Nadler and Quinn from…
We show that if $f\colon I\to I$ is piecewise monotone, post-critically finite, and locally eventually onto, then for every point $x\in X=\underleftarrow{\lim}(I,f)$ there exists a planar embedding of $X$ such that $x$ is accessible. In…
The Local Ergodic Theorem (also known as the `Fundamental Theorem') gives sufficient conditions under which a phase point has an open neighborhood that belongs (mod 0) to one ergodic component. This theorem is a key ingredient of many…
This work establishes a strong uniqueness property for a class of planar locally integrable vector fields. A result on pointwise convergence to the boundary value is also proved for bounded solutions.
While planar graphs are flat from a topological viewpoint, we observe that they are not from a geometric one. We prove that every planar graph can be embedded into a surface consisting of spheres, glued together in a tree-like fashion. As a…
If a convex body $K \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ is covered by the union of convex bodies $C_1, \ldots, C_N$, multiple subadditivity questions can be asked. Two classical results regard the subadditivity of the width (the smallest distance between…
This is a short note describing what I believe is a serious gap in Stanfield's proof of Sachs' conjecture that every linklessly embeddable graph has a linear linkless embedding in $\mathbb{R}^3$.
