A surface in the 4-sphere is trivially embedded, if it bounds a 3-dimensional handle body in the 4-sphere. For a surface trivially embedded in the 4-sphere, a diffeomorphism over this surface is extensible if and only if this preserves the…

This manuscript develops a geometric approach to ordinary cohomology of smooth manifolds, constructing a cochain complex model based on co-oriented smooth maps from manifolds with corners. Special attention is given to the pull-back product…

We characterise which simplicial surfaces can be folded onto a triangle. We define a notion of folding that incorporates the non-intersection-properties of real materials. All of the surfaces foldable onto a triangle admit a…

For non-degenerate surfaces in $R^4$, a distinguished transversal bundle called affine normal plane bundle was proposed in [Nomizu-Vrancken]. Lagrangian surfaces have remarkable properties with respect to this normal bundle, like for…

We prove a number of double-sided estimates relating discrete counterparts of several classical conformal invariants of a quadrilateral: cross-ratios, extremal lengths and random walk partition functions. The results hold true for any…

An ideal triangulation of a singular flat surface is a geodesic triangulation such that its vertex set is equal to the set of singular points of the surface. Using the fact that each pair of points in a surface has a finite number of…

We study some sub-Riemannian objects (such as horizontal connectivity, horizontal connection, horizontal tangent plane, horizontal mean curvature) in hypersurfaces of sub-Riemannian manifolds. We prove that if a connected hypersurface in a…

We study several models of random geometric subdivisions arising from the model of Diaconis and Miclo (2011). In particular, we show that the limiting shape of an indefinite subdivision of a quadrilateral is a.s.\ a parallelogram. We also…

We give two explicit versions of the decomposition theorem of Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne applied to the universal family of quartic surfaces of $\mathbb{P}^3$. The starting point of our investigation is the remark that the nodes of a…

Let E be a point in the plane of a convex quadrilateral ABCD. The lines from E to the vertices of the quadrilateral form four triangles. If we locate a triangle center in each of these triangles, the four triangle centers form another…

Transversal structures (also known as regular edge labelings) are combinatorial structures defined over 4-connected plane triangulations with quadrangular outer-face. They have been intensively studied and used for many applications…

Network models with latent geometry have been used successfully in many applications in network science and other disciplines, yet it is usually impossible to tell if a given real network is geometric, meaning if it is a typical element in…

The topology of complex classical paths is investigated to discuss quantum tunnelling splittings in one-dimensional systems. Here the Hamiltonian is assumed to be given as polynomial functions, so the fundamental group for the Riemann…

We define an invariant, which we call surface-complexity, of compact 3-manifolds by means of Dehn surfaces. The surface-complexity is a natural number measuring how much the manifold is complicated. We prove that it fulfils interesting…

A triangulation of a surface is called $q$-equivelar if each of its vertices is incident with exactly $q$ triangles. In 1972 Altshuler had shown that an equivelar triangulation of torus has a Hamiltonian Circuit. Here we present a necessary…
