We study the deformation of spherical conical metrics with at least some of the cone angles larger than $2\pi$. We show in this note via synthetic geometry that for one family of such metrics, there is local rigidity in the choice of cone…
Some projective wonderful models for the complement of a toric arrangement in a n-dimensional algebraic torus T were constructed in [3]. In this paper we describe their integer cohomology rings by generators and relations.
In this paper, we introduce round and sleek topological spaces and study their properties.
Rotating and twisting locally rotationally symmetric imperfect fluids in general relativity admit a much larger set of solutions than the self-similar ones recently suggested in the literature. Explicit forms of the metrics are given and…
In this note we collect some results on the deformation theory of toric Fano varieties.
This is a technical introduction to the paper "Extension of twisted Hodge metrics for Kahler morphisms" by the authors.
We investigate gauge anomalies in the context of orbifold conformal field theories. Such anomalies manifest as failures of modular invariance in the constituents of the orbifold partition function. We review how this irregularity is…
We study the scalar curvature of incomplete wedge metrics in certain stratified spaces with a single singular stratum (wedge spaces). Building upon several well established technical tools for this category of spaces (the corresponding…
We establish new results and introduce new methods in the theory of measurable orbit equivalence, using bounded cohomology of group representations. Our rigidity statements hold for a wide (uncountable) class of groups arising from negative…
We discuss some challenging open problems in the geometric control theory and sub-Riemannian geometry.
The aim of this elaborate is presenting the classical symmetric tensors completion problem to an audience of graduate students. As main studying tool, we will introduce the theory of hypergraph rigidity which naturally mirrors the problem…
The paper deals with quasigroups having a trivial group of automorphisms and a trivial group of autotopisms. Examples of such quasigroups and methods of their verification are given.
This article gives a self-contained proof of Mostow Rigidity, at least modulo undergrad real analysis. The proof should be accessible to grad students interested in geometry and topology. It has no new research, but I think that this is an…
In \cite{X-Z DCS1}, we introduced discrete conformal structures on surfaces with boundary via an axiomatic framework, and provided a classification of such discrete conformal structures. The present work focuses on the rigidity and…
We discuss the principle tools and results and state a few open problems concerning the classification and topology of plane sextics and trigonal curves in ruled surfaces.
The paper is devoted to some extremal problems, related to convex polygons in the Euclidean plane and their perimeters. We present a number of results that have simple formulations, but rather intricate proofs. Related and still unsolved…
We show that points in the intersection of the tropicalizations of subvarieties of a torus lift to algebraic intersection points with expected multiplicities, provided that the tropicalizations intersect in the expected dimension. We also…
In this work, we discuss several results concerning Serrin's problem in convex cones in Riemannian manifolds. First, we present a rigidity result for an overdetermined problem in a class of warped products with Ricci curvature bounded…
In this paper we prove criteria for a nonnormal toric variety to be flexible, to be rigid and to be almost rigid. For rigid and almost rigid toric varieties we describe the automorphism group explicitly.
In this work we treat a famous topic in Ergodic Theory and Dynamical Systems: uniformly expanding maps. We relate regularity of expanding maps and conjugacies with Lyapunov exponents, metric and topological entropies for expanding maps of…
