We establish a curvature estimate for classical minimal surfaces with total boundary curvature less than 4\pi. The main application is a bound on the genus of these surfaces depending solely on the geometry of the boundary curve. We also…
The main goal of this paper is to investigate the minimal size of families of curves on surfaces with the following property: a family of simple closed curves $\Gamma$ on a surface realizes all types of pants decompositions if for any pants…
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…
Suppose $Y$ is a smooth variety equipped with a top form. We prove a simple theorem giving a sharp lower bound on the geometric genus of a family of subvarieties of $Y$, in terms of the dimension of this family. Two elementary applications…
Let $R=K[x,y,z]$. A reduced plane curve $C=V(f)\subset \mathbf P^2$ is $free \ $ if its associated module of tangent derivations $\mathrm{Der}(f)$ is a free $R$-module, or equivalently if the corresponding sheaf $T_ {\mathbf P^2 }(-\log C)$…
In this article, we construct complete embedded constant mean curvature surfaces in $\mb{R}^3$ with freely prescribed genus and any number of ends greater than or equal to four. Heuristically, the surfaces are obtained by resolving finitely…
We continue our study of the free boundary regularity in the thin one-phase problem and show that $C^{2,\alpha}$ free boundaries are smooth.
A bounded curvature path is a continuously differentiable piece-wise $C^2$ path with bounded absolute curvature connecting two points in the tangent bundle of a surface. These paths have been widely considered in computer science and…
For the n-dimensional spherical pedal curve $ped_{\gamma,P}$ with respect to an n-dimensional spherical unit speed curve $\gamma$ and a given point $P \in S^n$, we define the spherical orthotomic curve of $\gamma$ relative to the point $P$,…
For every $n\geq 3, g\geq 1$ and all large enough $e$ depending on $n,g$, there exist curves of genus $g$, degree $e$ in a general hypersurface of degree $n$ in $\mathbb P^n$, or in $\mathbb P^n$ itself, whose whose normal bundle $N$ is…
Note that the family of closed curves C_N={(x,y)\in R^2;x^(2N)+y^(2N)=1} for N=1,2,3,... approaches the boundary of [-1,1]^2 as N \to \infty. In this paper we exhibit a natural parameterization of these curves and generalize to a larger…
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…
We refer here to the surprising construction made by Giuseppe Peano in 1890. He gave an example of a continuous function (called now the Peano curve) from the unit interval to the whole unit square. We show here the existence of a more…
Let $(\Sigma,\mathbb{M},\mathbb{P})$ be a surface with marked points $\mathbb{M}\subseteq \partial\Sigma\neq\varnothing$ and punctures $\mathbb{P}\subseteq\Sigma\setminus\partial\Sigma$. In this paper we show that for every curve $\gamma$…
Let $\mathcal{P}_{\kappa_1}^{\kappa_2}(\boldsymbol{P}, \boldsymbol{Q})$ denote the set of $C^1$ regular curves in the $2$-sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ that start and end at given points with the corresponding Frenet frames $\boldsymbol{P}$ and…
We introduce Peano words, which are words corresponding to finite approximations of the Peano space filling curve. We then find the number of occurrences of certain patterns in these words.
Let $\gamma: [0,1] \to [0,1]^2$ be a continuous curve such that $\gamma(0)=(0,0)$, $\gamma(1)=(1,1)$, and $\gamma(t) \in (0,1)^2$ for all $t\in (0,1)$. We prove that, for each $n \in \mathbb{N}$, there exists a sequence of points $A_i$,…
Suppose that $M$ is a $2$-dimensional oriented Riemannian manifold, and let $\gamma$ be a simple closed curve on $M$. Let $m \gamma$ denote the curve formed by tracing $\gamma$ $m$ times. We prove that if $m \gamma$ is contractible through…
A Peano continuum means a locally connected continuum. A compact metric space is called a \emph{Peano compactum} if all its components are Peano continua and if for any constant $C>0$ all but finitely many of its components are of diameter…
We give a complete characterization of those $f: [0,1] \to X$ (where $X$ is a Banach space which admits an equivalent Fr\'echet smooth norm) which allow an equivalent $C^2$ parametrization. For $X=\R$, a characterization is well-known.…
