In this paper we prove that if $\gamma$ is a Jordan curve on $\mathbb{S}^2$ then there is a smooth curve shortening flow defined on $(0,T)$ which converges to $\gamma$ in $\mathcal{C}^0$ as $t\to 0^+ $. Another perspective is that the…

We study compact stable embedded minimal surfaces whose boundary is given by two collections of closed smooth Jordan curves in close planes of Euclidean 3-space. Our main result is a classification of these minimal surfaces, under certain…

Suppose that $\gamma \subset \mathbb{C}$ is a Jordan curve of diameter $2R$ which encloses a region of area $A$. We prove that there exists a subset $I \subset (0,\pi)$ of measure at least $A/R^2$ such that if $\theta \in I$, then there…

We prove that if two subsets ${A}$ and ${B}$ of the plane are connected, ${A}$ is bounded, and the Euclidean distance $\rho({A},{B})$ between ${A}$ and ${B}$ is greater than zero, then for every positive $\varepsilon<\rho({A},{B})$, the…

Let $f$ be a meromorphic function with simply connected domain $G\subset\mathbb{C}$, and let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{C}$ be a smooth Jordan curve. We call a component of $f^{-1}(\Gamma)$ in $G$ a $\Gamma$-$pseudo$-$lemniscate$ of $f$. In this…

Let $\Gamma$ be a closed Jordan curve, and $f$ the conformal mapping that sends the unit disc $\mathbb{D}$ onto the interior domain of $\Gamma$. If $\log f'$ belongs to the Dirichlet space $\mathcal{D}$, we call $\Gamma$ a Weil-Petersson…

We show that, for a constant-degree algebraic curve $\gamma$ in $\mathbb{R}^D$, every set of $n$ points on $\gamma$ spans at least $\Omega(n^{4/3})$ distinct distances, unless $\gamma$ is an {\it algebraic helix} (see Definition 1.1). This…

An explicit upper bound is derived for the modulus of divided difference for a smooth(not necessarily analytic) function defined on a smooth Jordan arc (or a smooth Jordan curve) in the complex plane. As an immediate application, an error…

We consider perturbations of a large Jordan matrix, either random and small in norm or of small rank. In both cases we show that most of the eigenvalues of the perturbed matrix are very close to a circle with centre at the origin. In the…

We construct a Jordan curve $\Gamma \subset \mathbb{C}$ so that for any rectifiable arc $\sigma$ with endpoints in distinct complementary components of $\Gamma$, $H^1(\sigma \cap \Gamma) > 0$.

Let $\Omega$ be a planar Jordan domain. We consider double-dome-like surfaces $\Sigma$ defined by graphs of functions of $dist( \cdot ,\partial \Omega)$ over $\Omega$. The goal is to find the right conditions on the geometry of the base…

Let $\Gamma$ be a rectifiable Jordan curve in the complex plane, $\Omega_i$ and $\Omega_e$ respectively the interior and exterior domains of $\Gamma$, and $p\geq 2$. Let $E$ be the vector space of functions defined on $\Gamma$ consisting of…

We consider Jordan curves of the form $\gamma=\cup_{j=1}^n \gamma_j$ on the Riemann sphere for which each $\gamma_j$ is a hyperbolic geodesic in $(\widehat{\mathbb C} \smallsetminus \gamma)\cup \gamma_j$. These Jordan curves are…

We deal with a robust notion of weak normals for a wide class of irregular curves defined in Euclidean spaces of high dimension. Concerning polygonal curves, the discrete normals are built up through a Gram-Schmidt procedure applied to…

Let $S_i$, $i\in I$, be a countable collection of Jordan curves in the extended complex plane $\Sph$ that bound pairwise disjoint closed Jordan regions. If the Jordan curves are uniform quasicircles and are uniformly relatively separated,…

This paper is devoted to the study of geodesic distances defined on a subdomain of a given Carnot group, which are bounded both from above and from below by fixed multiples of the Carnot-Carath\'{e}odory distance. We show that the uniform…

We introduce the concept of distance mean-regular graph, which can be seen as a generalization of both vertex-transitive and distance-regular graphs. Let $\Gamma$ be a graph with vertex set $V$, diameter $D$, adjacency matrix $A$, and…

We address the question of what is the correct higher dimensional analogue of Jordan curves from the point of view of quantitative rectifiability. More precisely, we show that 'topologically stable' sets can be used as covering objects in…

We establish the exact (up to the constants) double inequality for the Christoffel function for a measure supported on a Jordan domain bounded by a quasiconformal curve. We show that this quasiconformality of the boundary cannot be omitted.

We study closed smooth convex plane curves $\Gamma$ enjoying the following property: a pair of points $x,y$ can traverse $\Gamma$ so that the distances between $x$ and $y$ along the curve and in the ambient plane do not change; such curves…
