We construct new examples of algebraic curvature tensors so that the Jordan normal form of the higher order Jacobi operator is constant on the Grassmannian of subspaces of type $(r,s)$ in a vector space of signature $(p,q)$. We then use…

In this paper we investigate $m$-dimensional complete minimal submanifolds in Euclidean spheres with index of relative nullity at least $m-2$ at any point. These are austere submanifolds in the sense of Harvey and Lawson \cite{harvey} and…

We prove some Bernstein theorems for entire space-like submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean spaces and, as a corollary, we obtain a new proof of the Calabi-Pogorelov theorem on global solutions of Monge-Ampere equations.

Jordan geometries are defined as spaces equipped with point reflections depending on triples of points, exchanging two of the points and fixing the third. In a similar way, symmetric spaces have been defined by Loos (Symmetric Spaces I,…

Symmetry postulates play a crucial role in various approaches to reconstruct quantum theory from a few basic principles. Discrete and continuous symmetries are under consideration. The continuous case better matches the physical needs for…

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…

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…
