We find estimates for the restriction of automorphic forms on hyperbolic manifolds to compact geodesic cycles. The geodesic cycles we study are themselves hyperbolic manifolds of lower dimension. The restriction of an automorphic form to…

We study the geometry of geodesics on $\mathsf{SL}(n)$, equipped with the Hilbert-Schmidt metric which makes it a Riemannian manifold. These geodesics are known to be related to affine motions of incompressible ideal fluids. The $n = 2$…

In this work we study the general system of geodesic equations for the case of a massive particle moving on an arbitrary curved manifold. The investigation is carried out from the symmetry perspective. By exploiting the parametrization…

We study the geometry of cuspidal $S_k$ singularities in $\mathbb R^3$ obtained by folding generically a cuspidal edge. In particular we study the geometry of the cuspidal cross-cap $M$, i.e. the cuspidal $S_0$ singularity. We study…

Special generic maps are generalizations of Morse functions with exactly two singular points on spheres and canonical projections of unit spheres. They restrict the manifolds of the domains strongly in considerable cases and are important…

We introduce boundary special generic maps, a class of submersions from manifolds with boundary to Euclidean spaces whose restriction to the boundary has only boundary definite fold points as its singular points. We derive the…

Given any rectangular polyhedron 3-manifold $P$ tiled with unit cubes, we find infinitely many explicit directions related to cubic algebraic numbers such that all half-infinite geodesics in these directions are uniformly distributed in…

We take a three dimensional Euclidian metric in toroidal coordinates and consider the corresponding Laplace equation. The simplest solution of this equation is taken. Based on this we build a Weyl space-time. This space-time is transformed…

The geodesic total curvature of rectifiable spherical curves is analyzed. We extend to the case of high dimension spheres the explicit formula that holds true for curves supported into the 2-sphere. For this purpose, we take advantage of…

There are many equivalent definitions of Riemannian geodesics. They are naturally generalised to sub-Riemannian manifold, but become non-equivalent. We give a review of different definitions of geodesics of a sub-Riemannian manifold and…

We give a description of complex geodesics and we study the structure of stationary discs in some non-convex domains for which complex geodesics are not unique.

This is a study of a problem in geodesy with methods from complex algebraic geometry: for a fixed number of measure points and target points at unknown position in the Euclidean plane, we study the problem of determining their relative…

We show that large classes of non-arithmetic hyperbolic $n$-manifolds, including the hybrids introduced by Gromov and Piatetski-Shapiro and many of their generalizations, have only finitely many finite-volume immersed totally geodesic…

Given a Riemannian manifold M and a hypersurface H in M, it is well known that infinitesimal convexity on a neighborhood of a point in H implies local convexity. We show in this note that the same result holds in a semi-Riemannian manifold.…

We study non-positively curved closed manifolds $M$ and $n$-dimensional totally geodesic submanifolds of $M \times M$ which satisfy a transversality condition. We prove that, under some mild irreducibility requirements on $M$, if $M \times…

The notion of meromorphic convexity is defined and studied on complex manifolds. Using this notion, in analogy with Stein manifolds, a new class of complex manifolds, called {\calligra M }-manifolds, is introduced. This is a class of…
