We give an elementary proof of a theorem that characterizes quasisymmetric maps of the unit circle in terms of shear coordinates on the Farey tesselation. The proof only uses the normal family argument for quasisymmetric maps and some…
We give a parametrization to the asymptotic Teichmuller space of the open unit disk through equivalent classes of shear functions induced by quasisymmetric homeomorphisms on the Farey tesselation of the unit disk. Then using the…
We study quasisymmetric maps, which act on the boundary of the hyperbolic plane, by looking at their action on the Farey triangulation. Our main results identify exactly which quasisymmetric maps correspond to pinched lambda lengths in…
We introduce and the study the space of homeomorphisms of the circle (up to M\"obius transformations) which are in $\ell^2$ with respect to modular coordinates called diamond shears along the edges of the Farey tessellation. Diamond shears…
We characterize maps between $n$-dimensional N\"obeling manifolds that can be approximated by homeomorphisms.
We provide a parametrisation of a loxodrome by three specially arranged cycles. The parametrisation is covariant under fractional linear transformations of the complex plane and naturally encodes conformal properties of loxodromes. Selected…
We give a combinatorial characterization of the group of quasiconformal homeomorphisms of a closed, oriented surface $S$ of genus at least $2$. In particular, we prove they are exactly the automorphisms of a graph of essential quasicircles…
For each $n > 0$ there is a one complex parameter family of homeomorphisms of the circle consisting of linear fractional transformations `conjugated by $z \to z^n$'. We show that these families are free of relations, which determines the…
We introduce a new perspective on a procedure for generating pseudo-Anosov homemorphisms from postcritically finite interval maps. The central idea is the realization of a tree structure on one such family of pseudo-Anosovs: individual…
This paper continues the investigation of the relation between the geometry of a circle embedding and the values of its Fourier coefficients. First, we answer a question of Kovalev and Yang concerning the support of the Fourier transform of…
An isoparametric family in the unit sphere consists of parallel isoparametric hypersurfaces and their two focal submanifolds. The present paper has two parts. The first part investigates topology of the isoparametric families, namely the…
We determine which connected surfaces can be partitioned into topological circles. There are exactly seven such surfaces up to homeomorphism: those of finite type, of Euler characteristic zero, and with compact boundary components. As a…
New criteria for which Cayley graphs of cyclic groups of any order can be completely determined--up to isomorphism--by the eigenvalues of their adjacency matrices is presented. Secondly, a new construction for pairs of nonisomorphic Cayley…
We develop a systematic framework for constructing spherical harmonics on the two-dimensional unit sphere as superpositions of Gaussian beams whose poles form well-separated point configurations. The distributional and analytic properties…
We study the perimeter inequality under circular symmetrisation, and we provide a full geometric characterisation of equality cases. A careful inspection of the proof shows that a similar characterisation holds true also for the perimeter…
In this article, circular arcs are considered both individually and as elements of a piecewise circular curve. The endpoint parameterization proves to be quite advantageous here. The perspective of symplectic geometry provides new vectorial…
A sphere is a fundamental geometric object widely used in (computer aided) geometric design. It possesses rational parameterizations but no parametric polynomial parameterization exists. The present study provides an approach to the optimal…
A spherical quadrilateral is a bordered surface homeomorphic to a closed disk, with four distinguished boundary points called corners, equipped with a Riemannian metric of constant curvature 1, except at the corners, and such that the…
In this paper we study quasi-symmetric conjugations of $C^2$ weakly order-preserving circle maps with a flat interval. Under the assumption that the maps have the same rotation number of bounded type and that bounded geometry holds we…
We prove that any topological loop homeomorphic to a sphere or to a real projective space and having a compact-free Lie group as the inner mapping group is homeomorphic to the circle. Moreover, we classify the differentiable $1$-dimensional…
