The universal deformation of the complex disk is studied from the viewpoint of infinite-dimensional geometry. The structure of a subsymmetric space on the universal deformation is described. The foliation of the universal deformation by…
We discuss scaling limits of large bipartite quadrangulations of positive genus. For a given $g$, we consider, for every $n \ge 1$, a random quadrangulation $\q_n$ uniformly distributed over the set of all rooted bipartite quadrangulations…
This paper contains a comparative study of two families of simple curves drawn in the plane. On the one hand, we have the fractal curves on the unit interval, with self-similar structure, which have associated a Hausdorff dimension. On the…
The paper concerns the limit shape (under some probability measure) of convex polygonal lines with vertices on $\mathbb{Z}_+^2$, starting at the origin and with the right endpoint $n=(n_1,n_2)\to\infty$. In the case of the uniform measure,…
We consider a Markov evolution of lozenge tilings of a quarter-plane and study its asymptotics at large times. One of the boundary rays serves as a reflecting wall. We observe frozen and liquid regions, prove convergence of the local…
Recently, a tree bijection has been found for planar hyperbolic surfaces, which allows for an easy computation of the Weil--Petersson volumes, and opens the path to get distance statistic on random hyperbolic surfaces and to find scaling…
We start by studying a peeling process on finite random planar maps with faces of arbitrary degrees determined by a general weight sequence, which satisfies an admissibility criterion. The corresponding perimeter process is identified as a…
For each pair $(Q_i,Q_j)$ of reference points and each real number $r$ there is a unique hyperplane $h \perp Q_iQ_j$ such that $d(P,Q_i)^2 - d(P,Q_j)^2 = r$ for points $P$ in $h$. Take $n$ reference points in $d$-space and for each pair…
We introduce the polygonalisation complex of a surface, a cube complex whose vertices correspond to polygonalisations. This is a geometric model for the mapping class group and it is motivated by works of Harer, Mosher and Penner. Using…
We consider spherical quadrangulations -- spherical embeddings of multigraphs, possibly with loops, so that every face has boundary walk of length 4 -- in which all vertices have degree 3 or 4. Interpreting each degree 4 vertex as a…
We study hyperbolic mappings depending on a parameter $\varepsilon $. Each of them has an invariant Cantor set. As $\varepsilon $ tends to zero, the mapping approaches the boundary of hyperbolicity. We analyze the asymptotics of the gap…
We consider an infinite graph with the vertex set $\mathbb{Z}^2$ and edges connecting the vertices iff the Euclidean distance between the respective points is an integer, and the points do not lie on the same horizontal or vertical.…
The shape of homogeneous, generic, smooth convex bodies as described by the Euclidean distance with nondegenerate critical points, measured from the center of mass represents a rather restricted class M_C of Morse-Smale functions on S^2.…
We study geodesics on a planar Riemann surface of infinite type having a single infinite end. Of particular interest is the class of geodesics that go out the infinite end in a most efficient manner. We investigate properties of these…
We discuss asymptotics for large random planar maps under the assumption that the distribution of the degree of a typical face is in the domain of attraction of a stable distribution with index $\alpha\in(1,2)$. When the number $n$ of…
We explore a notion of bent sequence attached to the data consisting of an Hadamard matrix of order $n$ defined over the complex $q^{th}$ roots of unity, an eigenvalue of that matrix, and a Galois automorphism from the cyclotomic field of…
We consider the model of the Brownian plane, which is a pointed non-compact random metric space with the topology of the complex plane. The Brownian plane can be obtained as the scaling limit in distribution of the uniform infinite planar…
A meandric system of size $n$ is the set of loops formed from two arc diagrams (non-crossing perfect matchings) on $\{1,\dots,2n\}$, one drawn above the real line and the other below the real line. A uniform random meandric system can be…
Stack-triangulations appear as natural objects when one wants to define some increasing families of triangulations by successive additions of faces. We investigate the asymptotic behavior of rooted stack-triangulations with $2n$ faces under…
We consider planar directed last-passage percolation on the square lattice with general i.i.d. weights and study the geometry of the full set of semi-infinite geodesics in a typical realization of the random environment. The structure of…
