In this paper, the existence and uniqueness for a specific centro-affine invariant hypersurface flow in $R^{n+1}$ are studied, and the corresponding evolutionary processes in both centro-affine and Euclidean settings are explored. It turns…
In a previous paper, we showed how certain orientations of the edges of a graph G embedded in a closed oriented surface S can be understood as discrete spin structures on S. We then used this correspondence to give a geometric proof of the…

This paper uses the technology of weighted and regular triangulations to study discrete versions of the Laplacian on piecewise Euclidean manifolds. Regular triangulations are studied in some detail, including flip algorithms. The Laplacian…
We construct the exponential map associated to a nonholonomic system that allows us to define an exact discrete nonholonomic constraint submanifold. We reproduce the continuous nonholonomic flow as a discrete flow on this discrete…
This paper is a summary of the theory of discrete embeddings introduced in [5]. A discrete embedding is an algebraic procedure associating a numerical scheme to a given ordinary differential equation. Lagrangian systems possess a…
A piecewise constant curvature manifold is a triangulated manifold that is assigned a geometry by specifying lengths of edges and stipulating that for a chosen background geometry (Euclidean, hyperbolic, or spherical), each simplex has an…
We define an invariant, which we call surface-complexity, of closed 3-manifolds by means of Dehn surfaces. The surface-complexity of a manifold is a natural number measuring how much the manifold is complicated. We prove that it fulfils…
We obtain truncated restriction estimates of an unexpected form for discrete surfaces \begin{align} S = \{\, ( n_1 , \dots , n_d , R( n_1 , \dots, n_d ) ) \,,\, n_i \in [-N,N] \cap \mathbb{Z} \,\}, \end{align} where $R$ is an indefinite…
