We propose a solution to the tenth of Professor Clark Kimberling's unsolved problems found on https://faculty.evansville.edu/ck6/integer/unsolved.html. We are required to find the parametric equations of a simple and closed curve $C$ on the…
First we solve the problem of finding minimal degree families on toric surfaces by reducing it to lattice geometry. Then we describe how to find minimal degree families on, more generally, rational complex projective surfaces.
The preservation of ambient isotopic equivalence under piecewise linear (PL) approximation for smooth knots are prominent in molecular modeling and simulation. Sufficient conditions are given regarding: (1) Hausdorff distance, and (2) a sum…
We describe a new family of triply-periodic minimal surfaces with hexagonal symmetry, related to the quartz (qtz) and its dual (the qzd net). We provide a solution to the period problem and provide a parametrisation of these surfaces, that…
In this article, we use the inverse function theorem for Banach spaces to interpolate a given real analytic spacelike curve $a$ in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\mathbb{L}^3$ to another real analytic spacelike curve $c$, which is ``close" enough…
For every $p,q\geq 1$, we construct minimal embeddings of $\mathbb{S}^p \times \mathbb{S}^q \times \mathbb{S}^1$ in $\mathbb{S}^{p + q + 2}$ by doubling the links of free-boundary minimal cones in $\mathbb{R}^{p+q+3}$ with bi-orthogonal…
The structure of the $C^*$-algebras corresponding to even-dimensional mirror quantum spheres is investigated. It is shown that they are isomorphic to both Cuntz-Pimsner algebras of certain $C^*$-correspondences and $C^*$-algebras of certain…
We construct a new family of simply connected minimal complex surfaces with $p_g=1$, $q=0$, and $K^2=8$ using a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothing theory.
Various curve complexes with vertices representing multicurves on a surface $S$ have been defined, for example [3], [4] and [8]. The homology curve complex $\mathcal{HC}(S,\alpha)$ defined in [7] is one such complex, with vertices…
We study the problem of finding curves of minimum pointwise-maximum arc-length derivative of curvature, here simply called curves of minimax spirality, among planar curves of fixed length with prescribed endpoints and tangents at the…
We study $c$-crossing-critical graphs, which are the minimal graphs that require at least $c$ edge-crossings when drawn in the plane. For $c=1$ there are only two such graphs without degree-2 vertices, $K_5$ and $K_{3,3}$, but for any fixed…
We classify real families of minimal degree rational curves that cover an embedded rational surface. A corollary is that if the projective closure of a smooth surface is not biregular isomorphic to the projective closure of the unit-sphere,…
T-curves are piecewise linear curves which have been used with success since the beginning of the 1990's to construct new real algebraic curves with prescribed topology mainly on the real projective plane. In fact T-curves can be used on…
We prove the regularity of cohomogeneity two equivariant isotopy minimization problems. Based on this, we develop cohomogeneity two equivariant min-max theory for minimal hypersurfaces proposed by Pitts and Rubinstein in 1988. As an…
This is a survey of recent works on the germ-equivalence problem of minimal rational curves on uniruled projective manifolds. Our main interest is when the associated varieties of minimal rational tangents form an isotrivial family of…
In this paper we give for all $n \geq 2$, d>0, $g \geq 0$ necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a pair (X,C), where X is a K3 surface of degree 2n in $\matbf{P}^{n+1}$ and C is a smooth (reduced and irreducible) curve of…
Laurent Hauswirth and Harold Rosenberg developed the theory of minimal surfaces with finite total curvature in $\H^2\times\R$. They showed that the total curvature of one such a surface must be a non-negative integer multiple of $-2\pi$.…
A classical theorem in the theory of minimal surfaces establishes a correspondence between minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ and null holomorphic curves in $\mathbb{C}^n$. A hyperbolic version of this correspondence is due to Bryant: null…
We initiate the study of computing shortest non-separating simple closed curves with some given topological properties on non-orientable surfaces. While, for orientable surfaces, any two non-separating simple closed curves are related by a…
A quantum surface (QS) is an equivalence class of pairs $(D,H)$ of simply connected domains $D\subsetneq\mathbb{C}$ and random distributions $H$ on $D$ induced by the conformal equivalence for random metric spaces. This distribution-valued…
