Surfaces with concentric $K$-contours and parallel $K$-contours in Euclidean $3$-space are defined. Crucial examples are presented and characterization of them are given.
We study minimal surfaces in generic sub-Riemannian manifolds with sub-Riemannian structures of co-rank one. These surfaces can be defined as the critical points of the so-called {\it horizontal} area functional associated to the canonical…
Left and right "generalized Schur algebras", previously introduced by the author, are defined and analyzed. Filtrations of these algebras lead, in most cases, to parameterizations of the their irreducible representations over fields of…
Classical W-algebras in higher dimensions have been recently constructed. In this letter we show that there is a finitely generated subalgebra which is isomorphic to the algebra of local diffeomorphisms in D dimensions. Moreover, there is a…
We construct some complex surfaces of general type with maximal Picard number. These examples arise as fibrations of genus two curves over quaternionic Shimura curves.
Optical surfaces represented by second-degree polynomials (quadratic or conics) are ubiquitous in optics. We revisit the equations of the conic shapes in the context of grazing incidence optics, gathering together the curves commonly used…
In this paper we develop an abstract theory for the Codazzi equation on surfaces, and use it as an analytic tool to derive new global results for surfaces in the space forms ${\bb R}^3$, ${\bb S}^3$ and ${\bb H}^3$. We give essentially…
We construct a global hypersurface of section for the geodesic flow of a convex hypersurface in Euclidean space admits an isometric involution. This generalizes the Birkhoff annulus to higher dimensions.
The main purpose of this note is to construct almost complex or complex structures on certain isoparametric hypersurfaces in unit spheres. As a consequence, complex structures on $S^1\times S^7\times S^6$, and on $S^1\times S^3\times S^2$…
We propose a novel universal construction of two-level overlapping Schwarz preconditioners for $2m$th-order elliptic boundary value problems, where $m$ is a positive integer. The word "universal" here signifies that the coarse space…
Isoparametric hypersurfaces and their application to special geometries
An extension of the classic Enneper-Weierstrass representation for conformally parametrised surfaces in multi-dimensional spaces is presented. This is based on low dimensional CP^1 and CP^2 sigma models which allow the study of the constant…
Warped products are one of the simplest families of Riemannian manifolds that can have non-trivial geometries. In this article, we characterize the geometry of hypersurface embeddings arising from warped product manifolds using the language…
We classify totally geodesic and parallel hypersurfaces of four-dimensional non-reductive homogeneous pseudo-Riemannian manifolds.
In this note we will review the most important results and questions related to Chern conjecture and isoparametric hypersurfaces, as well as their interactions and applications to various aspects in mathematics.
Extensions of the generalized Weierstrass representation to generic surfaces in 4D Euclidean and pseudo-Euclidean spaces are given. Geometric characteristics of surfaces are calculated. It is shown that integrable deformations of such…
In this work, we provide a local classification of certain special classes of surfaces determined by the prescription of the radial mean curvature in terms of the height and angle functions. Moreover, we introduce a special class of…
A general method is introduced for constructing two-dimensional (2D) surface meshes embedded in three-dimensional (3D) space time, and 3D hypersurface meshes embedded in four-dimensional (4D) space time. In particular, we begin by dividing…
In this paper, we establish the Zariski decompositions of arithmetic R-divisors of continuous type on arithmetic surfaces and investigate several properties. We also develop the general theory of arithmetic R-divisors on arithmetic…
In this article we give a construction of the resolution graphs of hypersurface surface singularities (X_k,0) given by generalized Iomdin series. All these resolution graphs are coordinated by an ``universal bi-colored graph'' which is…
