In this paper we consider partial linear spaces induced on the point set of a polar space, but with as lines the hyperbolic lines of this polar space. We give some geometric characterizations of these and related spaces. The results have…
We investigate the bounded composition operators induced by linear fractional self-maps of the right half-plane $\mathbb{C}_+$ on the Hardy space $H^2(\mathbb{C}_+).$ We completely characterize which of these operators are cohyponormal and…
The automorphisms of a two-generator free group acting on the space of orientation-preserving isometric actions of on hyperbolic 3-space defines a dynamical system. Those actions which preserve a hyperbolic plane but not an orientation on…
A submanifold of a Riemannian symmetric space is called parallel if its second fundamental form is a parallel section of the appropriate tensor bundle. We classify parallel submanifolds of the Grassmannian $\rmG^+_2(\R^{n+2})$ which…
In this paper we develop a complete theory of factorization for isometries of hyperbolic 4-space. Of special interest is the case where a pair of isometries is linked, that is, when a pair of isometries can be expressed each as compositions…
We prove a general criterion for a metric space to have conformal dimension one. The conditions are stated in terms of the existence of enough local cut points in the space. We then apply this criterion to the boundaries of hyperbolic…
We obtain the bifurcation of some special curves on generic 1-parameter families of surfaces in the Minkowski 3-space. The curves treated here are the locus of points where the induced pseudo metric is degenerate, the discriminant of the…
Some standard definitions and results concerning foliations of dimension one and codimension one are introduced. A proper time foliation of Minkowski space is defined and contrasted with the foliation that is defined by the time coordinate.…
There are several topological spaces associated to a complex hyperplane arrangement: the complement and its boundary manifold, as well as the Milnor fiber and its own boundary. All these spaces are related in various ways, primarily by a…
We give a combinatorial characterization of isotropic subspaces in the Orlik- Solomon algebra of a hyperplane arrangement in terms of decorations of its intersection lattice. We then use this characterization to prove a result that relates…
We study geometric properties of complete non-compact bounded self-shrinkers and obtain natural restrictions that force these hypersurfaces to be compact. Furthermore, we observe that, to a certain extent, complete self-shrinkers intersect…
We construct a class of infinite-dimensional Frobenius manifolds on the space of pairs of certain even functions meromorphic inside or outside the unit circle. Via a bi-Hamiltonian recursion relation, the principal hierarchies associated to…
Models of discrete space and space-time that exhibit continuum-like behavior at large lengths could have profound implications for physics. They may tame the infinities that arise from quantizing gravity, and dispense with the machinery of…
In the first work of this series [physics/0204035] it was shown that the conformational space of a molecule could be described to a fair degree of accuracy by means of a central hyperplane arrangement. The hyperplanes divide the espace into…
We show that any group that is hyperbolic relative to virtually nilpotent subgroups, and does not admit peripheral splittings, contains a quasi-isometrically embedded copy of the hyperbolic plane. In natural situations, the specific…
Euclidean conformal integrals for an arbitrary number of points in any dimension are evaluated. Conformal transformations in the Euclidean space can be formulated as the Moebius group in terms of Clifford algebras. This is used to interpret…
A general integral inequality is established for compact spacelike submanifolds of codimension two in the Lorentz-Minkowski spacetime under the assumption that the mean curvature vector field is parallel. This inequality is then used to…
Inspired by the halfspace theorem for minimal surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$ of Hoffman-Meeks, the halfspace theorem of Rodriguez-Rosenberg, and the cone theorem of Omori, we derive new non-existence results for proper harmonic maps into…
The nonlinear stability of Minkowski spacetime has been one of the central achievements in the mathematical theory of general relativity and, more broadly, in the analysis of nonlinear geometric wave equations. Since the seminal work of…
A 2-plectic manifold is a manifold equipped with a closed nondegenerate 3-form, just as a symplectic manifold is equipped with a closed nondegenerate 2-form. In 2-plectic geometry we meet higher analogues of many structures familiar from…
