For a nonconstant holomorphic map between projective Riemann surfaces with conformal metrics, we consider invariant Schwarzian derivatives and projective Schwarzian derivatives of general virtual order. We show that these two quantities are…
We introduce an infinite sequence of higher order Schwarzian derivatives closely related to the theory of monotone matrix functions. We generalize the classical Koebe lemma to maps with positive Schwarzian derivatives up to some order,…
The Schwarzian derivative plays a fundamental role in complex analysis, differential equations, and modular forms. In this paper, we investigate its higher-order generalizations, known as higher Schwarzians, and their connections to…
Because of all the known integrable models possess Schwarzian forms with M\"obious transformation invariance, it may be one of the best way to find new integrable models starting from some suitable M\"obious transformation invariant…
The Schwarzian derivative is invariant under SL(2,R)-transformations and, as thus, any function of it can be used to determine the equation of motion or the Lagrangian density of a higher derivative SL(2,R)-invariant 1d mechanics or the…
Let $(M,g)$ be a pseudo-Riemannian manifold. We propose a new approach for defining the conformal Schwarzian derivatives. These derivatives are 1-cocycles on the group of diffeomorphisms of $M$ related to the modules of linear differential…
We describe the way in which the sign of the Schwarzian derivative for a family of diffeomorphisms of the interval $I$ affects the dynamics of an associated many-to-one skew product map of the cylinder $(\R/\Z)\times I$.
The Schwarzian derivative has recently received renewed attention in connection with the study of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model. In mathematics literature, various higher order generalizations of the Schwarzian derivative are known due to…
In this paper, we analyze higher Schwarzians and show that they are closely related to the nonlinear realization of the Virasoro algebra. The Goldstone fields of such a realization provide a new set of SL(2,R) invariant higher Schwarzians…
We compare two relationships between quadratic differentials and measured geodesic laminations on hyperbolic Riemann surfaces (by foliations or complex projective structures). Each yields a homeomorphism $\ML(S) \to Q(X)$ for any conformal…
The description of invariants of surfaces with respect to the motion groups is reduced to the description of invariants of parameterized surfaces with respect to the motion groups. Existence of a commuting system of invariant partial…
A pre-Schwarzian and a Schwarzian derivative for locally univalent pluriharmonic mappings in ${\mathbb C}^n$ are introduced. Basic properties such as the chain rule, multiplicative invariance and affine invariance are proved for these…
This paper goes some way in explaining how to construct an integrable hierarchy of flows on the space of conformally immersed tori in n-space. These flows have first occured in mathematical physics -- the Novikov-Veselov and…
The intuitive notion of the Gromov invariant for maps from a Riemann surface to a Grassmannian is shown to agree with the definition in \cite{BDW}. Also, an induction on the genus is proved, which extends the results of \cite{BDW} to a…
The method of nonlinear realizations is used to clarify some conceptual and technical issues related to the Schwarzian mechanics. It is shown that the Schwarzian derivative arises naturally, if one applies the method to SL(2,R) times R…
We describe connections between the Fourier coefficients of derivatives of Eisenstein series and invariants from the arithmetic geometry of the Shimura varieties $M$ associated to rational quadratic forms $(V,Q)$ of signature $(n,2)$. In…
We consider harmonic maps on simply connected Riemann surfaces into the group $\mathrm{U}(n)$ of unitary matrices of order $n$. It is known that a harmonic map with an associated algebraic extended solution can be deformed into a new…
In this paper we introduce a definition of the pre-Schwarzian and the Schwarzian derivatives of any locally univalent harmonic mapping $f$ in the complex plane without assuming any additional condition on the (second complex) dilatation…
Using the Schwarzian derivative we construct a sequence $\left(P_{\ell}\right)_{\ell \geqslant 2}$ of meromorphic differentials on every non-flat oriented minimal surface in Euclidean $3$-space. The differentials…
We determine the exact values of Hausdorff dimensions of escaping sets of meromorphic functions with polynomial Schwarzian derivatives. This will follow from the relation between these functions and the second order differential equations…
