It is shown explicitly that when the characteristic vector field that defines a Godel-type metric is also a Killing vector, there always exist closed timelike or null curves in spacetimes described by such a metric. For these geometries,…

Let ${\cal E}$ be a topos, ${{\rm Dec}({\cal E}) \rightarrow {\cal E}}$ be the full subcategory of decidable objects, and ${{\cal E}_{\neg\neg} \rightarrow {\cal E}}$ be the full subcategory of double-negation sheaves. We give sufficient…

We show that the extended based mapping class group of an infinite-type surface is naturally isomorphic to the automorphism group of the loop graph of that surface. Additionally, we show that the extended mapping class group stabilizing a…

We consider unbounded curves without endpoints. Isomorphism is equivalence up to translation. Self-avoiding plane-filling curves cannot be periodic, but they can satisfy the local isomorphism property: We obtain a set $\Omega $ of coverings…

Many classical objects on a surface S can be interpreted as cross-ratio functions on the circle at infinity of the universal covering. This includes closed curves considered up to homotopy, metrics of negative curvature considered up to…

This article describes the geometry of isomorphisms between complements of geometrically irreducible closed curves in the affine plane $\mathbb{A}^2$, over an arbitrary field, which do not extend to an automorphism of $\mathbb{A}^2$. We…

We investigate ortho-integral (OI) hyperbolic surfaces with totally geodesic boundaries, defined by the property that every orthogeodesic (i.e. a geodesic arc meeting the boundary perpendicularly at both endpoints) has an integer…

We give an effective iterative characterization of the classes of (smooth, rational) (-1)-curves on the blowup of the projective plane at general points. Such classes are characterized as having self-intersection -1, arithmetic genus 0, and…

The Complex of Curves on a Surface is a simplicial complex whose vertices are homotopy classes of simple closed curves, and whose simplices are sets of homotopy classes which can be realized disjointly. It is not hard to see that the…

In this paper we consider some classical varieties of linear algebras over the field which has characteristic 0. For every considered variety we take a category of the finite generated free algebras of this variety. And for every this…

We consider systems of simple closed curves on surfaces and their total number of intersection points, their so-called crossing number. For a fixed number of curves, we aim to minimise the crossing number. We determine the minimal crossing…

We define and study analogs of curve graphs for infinite type surfaces. Our definitions use the geometry of a fixed surface and vertices of our graphs are infinite multicurves which are bounded in both a geometric and a topological sense.…

This paper explores the relationship between closed curves on surfaces and their intersections. Like Dehn-Thurston coordinates for simple curves, we explore how to determine closed curves using the number of times they intersect other…
