A classical Theorem of Alexandrov states that the map associating its boundary to a convex polyhdedron of the 3-dimensional Euclidean space is a bijection from the set of convex polyhdedron up to congruence to the set of isometry classes of…

Consider a compact Riemannian manifold M of dimension n whose boundary \partial M is totally geodesic and is isometric to the standard sphere S^{n-1}. A natural conjecture of Min-Oo asserts that if the scalar curvature of M is at least…

We introduce (co)homology theory for multiple group racks and construct cocycle invariants of compact oriented surfaces in the 3-sphere using their 2-cocycles, where a multiple group rack is a rack consisting of a disjoint union of groups.…

Let n be aninteger>4. There is a smoothly knotted n-dimensional sphere in (n+2)-space such that the singular point set of its projection in (n+1)-space consists of double points and that the components of the singular point set are two.…

By a theorem of Kirchhoff if the six sphere admits an almost complex structure then the seven sphere is parallelizable, more crucial, he exhibited an explicit global frame constructed out of the given almost complex structure. This result…

Suppose S is a planar set. Two points a,b in S 'see each other' via S if [a,b] is included in S . F. Valentine proved in 1957 that if S is closed, and if for every three points of S, at least two see each other via S, then S is a union of…

We introduce the concept of a standard form for two embedded maximal sphere systems in the doubled handlebody, and we prove an existence and uniqueness result. In particular, we show that pairs of maximal sphere systems in the doubled…

We give a proof of the $A_2$ conjecture in geometrically doubling metric spaces (GDMS), i.e. a metric space where one can fit not more than a fixed amount of disjoint balls of radius $r$ in a ball of radius $2r$. Our proof consists of three…

In this paper we first make and discuss a conjecture concerning Newtonian potentials in Euclidean n space which have all their mass on the unit sphere about the origin, and are normalized to be one at the origin. The conjecture essentially…

An ordinary hypersphere of a set of points in real $d$-space, where no $d+1$ points lie on a $(d-2)$-sphere or a $(d-2)$-flat, is a hypersphere (including the degenerate case of a hyperplane) that contains exactly $d+1$ points of the set.…

In 1987 Brehm and K\"uhnel showed that any combinatorial $d$-manifold with less than $3d/2+3$ vertices is PL homeomorphic to the sphere and any combinatorial $d$-manifold with exactly $3d/2+3$ vertices is PL homeomorphic to either the…

It is conjectured since long that for any convex body $K \in \mathbb{R}^n$ there exists a point in the interior of $K$ which belongs to at least $2n$ normals from different points on the boundary of $K$. The conjecture is known to be true…

The theorem of Le Calvez and Yoccoz states that there are no minimal homeomorphisms on the finite punctered 2-dimensional sphere S 2 . We show that this does not hold for other surfaces. Moreover, we discuss why the fast-conjugation-method…

Path integrals don't really exist, but it is very useful to dream that they do exist, and figure out the consequences. Apart from describing much of the physical world as we now know it, these dreams also lead to some highly non-trivial…

Any four mutually tangent spheres in R^3 determine three coincident lines through opposite pairs of tangencies. As a consequence, we define two new triangle centers.

We characterize those unions of embedded disjoint circles in the 2-sphere which can be the multiple point set of a generic immersion of the 2-sphere into 3-dimensional space in terms of the interlacement of the given circles. Our result is…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of the universe, induced communities, and cells with their corresponding spots. Using this language, we formulate and prove the union close set conjecture by showing that for any finite universe…

A simple consequence of a theorem of Franks says that whenever a continuous map, $g$, is homotopic to angle doubling on the circle it is semiconjugate to it. We show that when this semiconjugacy has one disconnected point inverse, then the…

For every $g\ge 2$ and $n\ge4$, we provide an $n-$manifold $M$ and a continuous $2-$sided map $f\colon S\longrightarrow M$, where $S$ is a closed genus $g$ surface, such that no simple loop is contained in $\text{ker}(\,f_*\,)$. This…

This paper shows that there are symplectic four-manifolds M with the following property: a single isotopy class of smooth embedded two-spheres in M contains infinitely many Lagrangian submanifolds, no two of which are isotopic as Lagrangian…
