For a separable locally compact but not compact metrizable space $X$, let $\alpha X = X \cup \{x_\infty\}$ be the one-point compactification with the point at infinity $x_\infty$. We denote by $EM(X)$ the space consisting of admissible…

The analysis of ``tangent maps'' at singular points of energy minimizing maps plays an important role in our understanding of the fine structure of the singular set. This note presents the first example of a minimizing (not just stationary)…

Recently a simple proof of the generalizations of Hawking's black hole topology theorem and its application to topological black holes for higher dimensional ($n\geq 4$) spacetimes was given \cite{rnew}. By applying the associated new line…

The moduli space of flat connections for maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories, in a space-time of the form T^3xR, contains isolated points, corresponding to normalizable zero energy states, for certain simple gauge groups G. We…

Let $\Omega$ be a non-singular syplectic form on some vector space $V$. Denote by $S^{n}_{k}(\Omega)$ the set of all $k$-dimensional planes $s$ in $V$ such that the restriction of $\Omega$ onto $s$ is singular. For the cases when $k=2,n-2$…

It is unlikely that uniqueness theorem holds for stationary black holes in higher dimensional spacetimes. However, we will examine the possibility that the higher multipole moments classify vacuum solutions uniquely. Especially, we compute…

A topological group $G$ is called an $M_\omega$-group if it admits a countable cover $\K$ by closed metrizable subspaces of $G$ such that a subset $U$ of $G$ is open in $G$ if and only if $U\cap K$ is open in $K$ for every $K\in\K$. It is…

We show that infinitely many Gorenstein weakly-exceptional quotient singularities exist in all dimensions, we prove a weak-exceptionality criterion for five-dimensional quotient singularities, and we find a sufficient condition for being…

Isolated Cohen-Macaulay codimension 2 singularities share many common features with isolated complete intersection singularities, but they also exhibit some striking new behaviour. One such instance was recently observed by Damon and Pike…

We study the scalar curvature of incomplete wedge metrics in certain stratified spaces with a single singular stratum (wedge spaces). Building upon several well established technical tools for this category of spaces (the corresponding…

We prove that if $P$ is a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{C}^2$, then either the points in $P$ determine $\Omega(n^{1-\epsilon})$ complex distances, or $P$ is contained in a line with slope $\pm i$. If the latter occurs then each pair of…

In this work, we present several new findings regarding the concepts of orbit-transitivity, strict orbit-transitivity, $\omega$-transitivity, and $\mu$-open-set transitivity for self-maps on generalized topological spaces. Let $(X,\mu)$…

An $\omega_1$-compact space is a space in which every closed discrete subspace is countable. We give various general conditions under which a locally compact, $\omega_1$-compact space is $\sigma$-countably compact, i.e., the union of…

We investigate indeterminate points in discrete integrable system. They appear in singularity confinement phenomenon naturally. We develop a method to analyse indeterminate points of dynamical maps and using this method we clarify behaviour…

This paper is a sequel to [He7]. There a notion of marking of isolated hypersurface singularities was defined, and a moduli space $M_\mu^{mar}$ for marked singularities in one $\mu$-homotopy class of isolated hypersurface singularities was…

For a conformal vector field $\xi$ on a Riemannian manifold, we say that a point is essential if there is no local metric in the conformal class for which $\xi$ is Killing. We show that the only essential points are isolated zeros of $\xi$.…

We derive some more results on the nature of the singularities arising in the collapse of inhomogeneous dust spheres. (i) It is shown that there are future-pointing radial and non-radial time-like geodesics emerging from the singularity if…

Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded simply connected domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We investigate the existence of critical points of the energy $E_\varepsilon (u)=1/2\int_\Omega |\nabla u|^2+1/(4\varepsilon^2)\int_\Omega (1-|u|^2)^2$, where the…

Recently, the intriguing interplay between topology and quantum criticality has been unveiled in one-dimensional topological chains with extended nearest-neighbor couplings. In these systems, topologically distinct critical phases emerge…

The singularitiy inside a spherical charged black hole, coupled to a spherical, massless scalar field is studied numerically. The profile of the characteristic scalar field was taken to be a power of advanced time with an exponent…
