We study sequences of partitions of the unit interval into subintervals, starting from the trivial partition, in which each partition is obtained from the one before by splitting its subintervals in two, according to a given rule, and then…

In this short note, we study the existence problem for Ulrich bundles on ruled surfaces, focusing our attention on the smallest possible rank. We show that existence of Ulrich line bundles occurs if and only if the coefficient $\alpha$ of…

A thin plate spline surface for interpolation of smooth transfinite data prescribed along concentric circles was recently proposed by Bejancu, using Kounchev's polyspline method. The construction of the new `Beppo Levi polyspline' surface…

We study the value distribution of holomorphic curves from a general open Riemann surface into a smooth logarithmic pair $(X, D).$ By stochastic calculus, we first obtain a version of tautological inequality (proposed by McQuillan) and a…

It is a well known phenomenon that many classical minimal surfaces in Euclidean space also exist with higher dihedral symmetry. More precisely, these surfaces are solutions to free boundary problems in a wedge bounded by two vertical planes…

We present a new explicit formula for the $m$-th Bernoulli number $B_m$, which involves two integer parameters $a$ and $n$ with $0\le a\le m\le n$. If we set $a=0$ and $n=m$, then the formula reduces to the celebrated Kronecker formula for…

For each surface besides the sphere, projective plane, and Klein bottle, we construct a face-simple minimal quadrangulation, i.e., a simple quadrangulation on the fewest number of vertices possible, whose dual is also a simple graph. Our…

We aim to study the solutions of a fractional mesoscopic model of phase transitions in a periodic medium. After investigating the geometric properties of the interface of the associated minimal solutions, we construct minimal interfaces…

A method for moving least squares interpolation and differentiation is presented in the framework of orthogonal polynomials on discrete points. This yields a robust and efficient method which can avoid singularities and breakdowns in the…

We study the structure of collections of algebraic curves in three dimensions that have many curve-curve incidences. In particular, let $k$ be a field and let $\mathcal{L}$ be a collection of $n$ space curves in $k^3$, with…

In CAGD the design of a surface that interpolates an arbitrary quadrilateral mesh is definitely a challenging task. The basic requirement is to satisfy both criteria concerning the regularity of the surface and aesthetic concepts. With…

We study complex analytic projective connections on surfaces in projective n-spaces in terms of the "second" neighborhood of the surface in the ambient space, and in terms of the osculating behavior of the integral curves. We also…

We consider a multivariate piecewise linear interpolation of a continuous random field on a d-dimensional cube. The approximation performance is measured by the integrated mean square error. Multivariate piecewise linear interpolator is…

We study minimal Lorentz surfaces in the pseudo-Euclidean 4-space with neutral metric whose first normal space is two-dimensional and whose Gauss curvature $K$ and normal curvature $\varkappa$ satisfy the inequality $K^2-\varkappa^2 >0$.…

We develop a new method to construct explicit, regular minimal surfaces in Euclidean space that are defined on the entire complex plane with controlled geometry. More precisely we show that for a large class of planar curves $(x(t), y(t))$…

We study the existence of area-minimizing homotopies between homotopic curves in the plane. While the classical Plateau problem establishes the existence of least-area surfaces spanning a single Jordan curve, the corresponding existence…
