After introducing the different boundary geometries of rank one symmetric spaces, we state and prove Fried's theorem in the general setting of all those geometries: a closed manifold with a similarity structure is either complete or the…

We prove that any compact surface with constant positive curvature and conical singularities can be decomposed into irreducible components of standard shape, glued along geodesic arcs connecting conical singularities. This is a spherical…

This note offers a probabilistic proof of Girard's angle excess formula for the area of a spherical triangle, based on the observation that an unbounded 3-dimensional convex cone, with single vertex at the origin, has only three kinds of…

We investigate to construct a conformal scattering theory of the spin-$1/2$ massless Dirac equation on the Kerr spacetime by using the conformal geometric method and under an assumption on the pointwise decay of the Dirac field. In…

In this paper, we prove a similar result to the fundamental theorem of regular surfaces in classical differential geometry, which extends the classical theorem to the entire class of singular surfaces in Euclidean 3-space known as frontals.…

Segre's theorem on ovals in projective spaces is an ingenious result from the mid-twentieth century which requires surprisingly little background to prove. This note, suitable for undergraduates with experience of linear and abstract…

The continue fractions of quadratic surds are periodic, according to a theorem by Lagrange. Their periods may have differing types of symmetries. This work relates these types of symmetries to the symmetries of the classes of the…

The problem of the classification of the indefinite binary quadratic forms with integer coefficients is solved introducing a special partition of the de Sitter world, where the coefficients of the forms lie, into separate domains. Every…

It is shown that on the de Sitter manifolds the tachyonic geodesics are restricted such that the classical tachyons cannot exist on this manifold at any time. On the contrary, the theory of the scalar quantum tachyons is free of any…

Starting with a new theory of symmetries generated by isometries in field theories with spin, one finds the generators of the spinor representation in backgrounds with a given symmetry. In this manner one obtains a collection of conserved…

The de Sitter spacetime is transitive under a combination of translations and proper conformal transformations. Its usual family of geodesics, however, does not take into account this property. As a consequence, there are points in de…

We consider quantum field theory in de Sitter space, focusing on the cases of scalars, spin 1/2 fields, and symmetric and anti-symmetric tensor fields of arbitrary spin. The free field equations in global coordinates can be reduced to a one…

This paper explores infrared quantum effects in the de Sitter space. The notion of "eternal manifolds" is introduced and it is shown that in most cases the de Sitter space doesn't belong to this class. It is unstable under small…

Respecting the group theoretical approach, it is debated that the theory of linear conformal gravity should be formulated through a tensor field of rank-3 and mixed symmetry \cite{binegar}. Pursuing this path, such a field equation was…

Congruent polygons are congruent in angles as well as in edge lengths. We concentrate on the angle aspect, and investigate how tilings of the sphere by congruent pentagons can be determined by the angle information only. We also investigate…
