In this article, we describe all the group morphisms from the group of compactly-supported homeomorphisms isotopic to the identity of a manifold to the group of homeomorphisms of the real line or of the circle.
We present a novel orbit parameterization in spherical coordinates. This parameterization enables the mixing of varying and invariant orbital parameters, and clarifies the physics of the orbit. It also simplifies the process of placing…
We provide a complete characterization of those self-homeomorphisms of the unit circle that admit homeomorphic extensions to the unit disk belonging to bi--Orlicz--Sobolev spaces. Our results generalize classical criteria from the Sobolev…
We completely classify edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent quadrilaterals. As part of the classification, we also present a modern version of the classification of edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent triangles.…
We use the reflection group trick to glue manifolds with corners that are Borel-Serre compactifications of locally symmetric spaces of noncompact type and obtain aspherical manifolds. We call these \emph{piecewise locally symmetric}…
Quasiconformal maps in the plane are orientation preserving homeomorphisms that satisfy certain distortion inequalities; infinitesimally, they map circles to ellipses of bounded eccentricity. Such maps have many useful geometric distortion…
A canal surface is the envelope of a moving sphere with varying radius, defined by the trajectory C(t) (spine curve) of its center and a radius function r(t). In this paper, we investigate when parameter curves of the canal surface are also…
Pluriharmonic maps form an important class of harmonic maps which includes holomorphic maps. We study their morphisms, in particular the inter-relationships between $(1,1)$-geodesic, pluriharmonic and $\pm$holomorphic maps. Then we…
We present further properties of a previously proposed recursive scheme for parameterisation of n-by-n unitary matrices. We show that the factors in the recursive formula may be introduced in any desired order. The method is used to study…
We develop a unified framework for the study of properties involving diagonalizations of dense families in topological spaces. We provide complete classification of these properties. Our classification draws upon a large number of methods…
A generalization of highly symmetric frames is presented by considering also projective stabilizers of frame vectors. This allows construction of highly symmetric line systems and study of highly symmetric frames in a more unified manner.…
We consider the electromagnetic field in a cavity with a periodically oscillating perfectly reflecting boundary and show that the mathematical theory of circle maps leads to several physical predictions. Notably, well-known results in the…
We find conditions for two piecewise C^{2+\nu} homeomorphisms f and g of the circle to be C^1 conjugate. Besides the restrictions on the combinatorics of the maps (we assume that the maps have bounded combinatorics), and necessary…
The characteristic map for the symmetric group is an isomorphism relating the representation theory of the symmetric group to symmetric functions. An analogous isomorphism is constructed for the symmetric space of symplectic forms over a…
We construct isoperimetric regions from separating hypersurfaces in closed manifolds. This yields isoperimetric boundaries exhibiting a wide variety of topological types and singular sets.
We study images of the unit ball under certain special classes of quasiregular mappings. For homeomorphic, i.e., quasiconformal mappings problems of this type have been studied extensively in the literature. In this paper we also consider…
We consider families of parameterizations of reduced curve singularities over a Noetherian base scheme and prove that the delta invariant is semicontinuous. In our setting, each curve singularity in the family is the image of a…
Suppose that $X$ and $Y$ are quasiconvex and complete metric spaces, that $G\subset X$ and $G'\subset Y$ are domains, and that $f: G\to G'$ is a homeomorphism. In this paper, we first give some basic properties of short arcs, and then we…
In this article we show that there are homeomorphisms of plane continua whose conjugacy class is residual and have the shadowing property.
In this paper, we give a survey of various sphere theorems in geometry. These include the topological sphere theorem of Berger and Klingenberg as well as the differentiable version obtained by the authors. These theorems employ a variety of…
