Hyperbolic geometry is developed in a purely algebraic fashion from first principles, without a prior development of differential geometry. The natural connection with the geometry of Lorentz, Einstein and Minkowski comes from a projective…
Around 1930, K. Menger expressed his interest in the concept of abstract angle function. He introduced a general definition of this notion for metric and semi-metric spaces. He also proposed two problems concerning conformal embeddability…
We study necessary conditions on the geometry and the topology of domains in $\mathbb{R}^2$ that support a positive solution to a classical overdetermined elliptic problem. The ideas and tools we use come from constant mean curvature…
We shall study non-linear extremal problems in Bergman space $\mathcal{A}^2(\mathbb{D})$. We show the existence of the solution and that the extremal functions are bounded. Further, we shall discuss special cases for polynomials,…
In many problems in optimal control, one seeks to minimise an objective function subject to constraints on the velocity of the system. Imposing these constraints directly -- the ``hard-constrained'' approach -- is often analytically and…
The Four Vertex Theorem, one of the earliest results in global differential geometry, says that a simple closed curve in the plane, other than a circle, must have at least four "vertices", that is, at least four points where the curvature…
We give an overview of how to construct continued fractions on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$, the projective and planar Siegel models of the group, and how to perform computations on the group using matrices. We discuss and work with…
We compare and contrast results of E. Davis, of A. Bigatti, A.V. Geramita and the author, and of J. Ahn and the author. The underlying idea is that certain numerical conditions on the Hilbert function of a finite set of points in projective…
We review some classical and modern aspects of hypergeometric differential equations, including $A$-hypergeometric systems of Gel'fand, Graev, Kapranov and Zelevinsky. Some recent advances in this theory, such as Euler-Koszul homology, rank…
Cylindric algebras, or concept algebras in another name, form an interface between algebra, geometry and logic; they were invented by Alfred Tarski around 1947. We prove that there are 2 to the alpha many varieties of geometric (i.e.,…
In this work we describe a construction that leads to an explicit solution of the problem of differentiation of hyperelliptic functions. A classical genus $g=1$ example of such a solution is a result of F.G.Frobenius and L.Stickelberger.…
In this talk we present an overview on the extensions of the De Giorgi approach to general second order nonlinear hyperbolic equations. We start with an introduction to the original conjecture by E. De Giorgi (De Giorgi '96) and to its…
Geometric Hydrodynamics has flourished ever since the celebrated 1966 paper of V. Arnold. In this paper we present a collection of open problems along with several new constructions in fluid dynamics and a concise survey of recent…
In this article we consider the anisotropic Calderon problem and related inverse problems. The approach is based on limiting Carleman weights, introduced in Kenig-Sjoestrand-Uhlmann (Ann. of Math. 2007) in the Euclidean case. We…
We prove, in the case of hyperbolic 3-space, a couple of conjectures raised by J. J. Seidel in "On the volume of a hyperbolic simplex", Stud. Sci. Math. Hung. 21, 243-249, 1986. These conjectures concern expressing the volume of an ideal…
We study the monodromies at infinity of confluent A-hypergeometric functions introduced by Adolphson. In particular, we extend the result of the third author for non-confluent A-hypergeometric functions to the confluent case. The integral…
We continue the study of infinite geodesics in planar first-passage percolation, pioneered by Newman in the mid 1990s. Building on more recent work of Hoffman, and Damron and Hanson, we develop an ergodic theory for infinite geodesics via…
There is a long history of parabolic monotonicity formulas that developed independently from several different fields and a much more recent elliptic theory. The elliptic theory can be localized and there are additional monotone quantities.…
The solution existence of finite horizon optimal economic growth problems is studied by invoking Filippov's Existence Theorem for optimal control problems with state constraints of the Bolza type from the monograph of L. Cesari…
This paper systematically studies Hilbert boundary value problems for hyper monogenic functions on the hyperplane for the solutions being of any integer orders at the infinity, where the negative order cases are new even when restricted to…
