Let M be a closed hyperbolic three manifold. We construct closed surfaces which map by immersions into M so that for each one the corresponding mapping on the universal covering spaces is an embedding, or, in other words, the corresponding…

We give a brief exposition of the proof of the Cayley-Salmon theorem and its recent role in incidence geometry. Even when we don't use the properties of ruled surfaces explicitly, the regime in which we have interesting results in…

We solve the isoperimetric problem in the Lens spaces with large fundamental group. Namely, we prove that the isoperimetric surfaces are geodesic spheres or tori of revolution about geodesics. We also show that the isoperimetric problem in…

We derive a Cartesian componentwise description of the covariant derivative of tangential tensor fields of any degree on general manifolds. This allows to reformulate any vector- and tensor-valued surface PDE in a form suitable to be solved…

An ant-like observer confined to a two-dimensional surface traversed by stripes would wonder whether this striped landscape could be devised in such a way as to appear to be the same wherever they go. Differently stated, this is the problem…

We show that a tensor field of any rank integrates to zero over all broken rays if and only if it is a symmetrized covariant derivative of a lower order tensor which satisfies a symmetry condition at the reflecting part of the boundary and…

Let $X$ be a smooth algebraic variety endowed with an action of a finite group $G$ such that there exists the geometric quotient $\pi_X:X\to X/G$. We characterize rational tensor fields $\tau$ on $X/G$ such that the {\it pull back} of $\tau…

Weighted V-line transforms map a symmetric tensor field of order $m\ge0$ to a linear combination of certain integrals of those fields along two rays emanating from the same vertex. A significant focus of current research in integral…

In this note, we give a generalization of the inversion formulas of Pestov-Uhlmann for the geodesic ray transform of functions and vector fields on simple 2-dimensional manifolds of constant curvature. The inversion formulas given here hold…

We give a spinorial characterization of isometrically immersed hypersurfaces into 4-dimensional space forms and product spaces $\M^3(\kappa)\times\R$, in terms of the existence of particular spinor fields, called generalized Killing spinors…

We present here a result of Monomialization of real analytic two-symmetric tensor fields over regular real analytic surfaces. We apply it to the (extension of the pull-back of the) inner metric of a resolved surface of a real analytic…

Many known Radon-type transforms of symmetric (radial or zonal) functions are represented by one-dimensional Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals or their modifications. The present article contains new examples of such transforms in the…

Consider a finite-dimensional real vector space equipped with a finite group acting unitarily on it. We address the general problem of constructing Euclidean stable embeddings of the quotient space of orbits. Our approach is based on…

A method to reconstruct weakly anisotropic inhomogeneous dielectric tensors inside a transparent medium is proposed. The mathematical theory of Integral Geometry is cast into a workable framework which allows the full determination of…

We generalize the spinorial characterization of isometric immersions of surfaces in R^3 given by T. Friedrich (On the spinor representation of surfaces in Euclidean 3-space, J. Geom. Phys. 28 (1998)) to surfaces in S^3 and H^3. The main…

Suppose that $f: Y\to X$ is a proper, dominant, tamely ramified morphism of algebraic surfaces, over a perfect field. We show that it is possible to perform sequences of monoidal transforms $Y'\to Y$ and $X'\to X$ to obtain an induced…

We consider the inverse problem in geophysics of imaging the subsurface of the Earth in cases where a region below the surface is known to be formed by strata of different materials and the depths and thicknesses of the strata and the…

We apply the invariant theory of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space to the class of general rotational surfaces with meridians lying in two-dimensional planes. We find all minimal super-conformal surfaces of this class.

In this paper we prove that one can find surgeries arbitrarily close to infinity in the Dehn surgery space of the figure eight knot complement for which some immersed totally geodesic surface compresses.

We introduce a method for transforming low-order tensors into higher-order tensors and apply it to tensors defined by graphs and hypergraphs. The transformation proceeds according to a surgery-like procedure that splits vertices, creates…
