This paper deals with finding surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ which are as close as possible to being flat and span a given contour such that the contour is a geodesic on the sought surface. We look for a surface which minimizes the total…

In this paper we extend the Lie theory of integration in two different ways. First we consider a finite dimensional Lie algebra of vector fields and discuss the most general conditions under which the integral curves of one of the fields…

For a polygon $x=(x_j)_{j\in \mathbb{Z}}$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ we consider the midpoints polygon $(M(x))_j=\left(x_j+x_{j+1}\right)/2\,.$ We call a polygon a soliton of the midpoints mapping $M$ if its midpoints polygon is the image of the…

A theta surface in affine 3-space is the zero set of a Riemann theta function in genus 3. This includes surfaces arising from special plane quartics that are singular or reducible. Lie and Poincar\'e showed that theta surfaces are precisely…

We introduce pseudo-spherical non-null framed curves in the three-dimensional anti-de Sitter spacetime and establish the existence and uniqueness of these curves. We then give moving frames along pseudo-spherical framed curves, which are…

We consider the Laplacian "co-flow" of $G_2$-structures: $\frac{d}{dt} \psi = - \Delta_d \psi$ where $\psi$ is the dual 4-form of a $G_2$-structure $\phi$ and $\Delta_d$ is the Hodge Laplacian on forms. This flow preserves the condition of…
