We study normal modes for the linear water wave problem in infinite straight channels of bounded constant cross-section. Our goal is to compare semianalytic normal mode solutions known in the literature for special triangular…

A rather natural construction for a smooth random surface in space is the level surface of value zero, or 'nodal' surface f(x,y,z)=0, of a (real) random function f; the interface between positive and negative regions of the function. A…

This paper is concerned with the location of nodal sets of eigenfunctions of the Dirichlet Laplacian in thin tubular neighbourhoods of hypersurfaces of the Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension. In the limit when the radius of the…

We observe that the Laplacian of a random graph G on N vertices represents and explicitly solvable model in the limit of infinitely increasing N. Namely, we derive recurrent relations for the limiting averaged moments of the adjacency…

We obtain a coarse relationship between geometric intersection numbers of curves and the sum of their subsurface projection distances with explicit quasi-constants. By using this relationship, we give applications in the studies of the…

Porous media are often modelled as systems of overlapping obstacles, which leads to the problem of two percolation thresholds in such systems, one for the porous matrix and the other one for the void space. Here we investigate these…

We investigate the distribution of lengths obtained by intersecting a random geodesic with a geodesic lamination. We give an explicit formula for the distribution for the case of a maximal lamination and show that the distribution is…

Consider two half-spaces $H_1^+$ and $H_2^+$ in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ whose bounding hyperplanes $H_1$ and $H_2$ are orthogonal and pass through the origin. The intersection $\mathbb{S}_{2,+}^d:=\mathbb{S}^d\cap H_1^+\cap H_2^+$ is a spherical…

Guth and Katz proved that, as conjectured by Elekes and Sharir, $m$ lines in 3-space have at most constant times $ m^{3/2}$ intersection points, aside from some obvious counter examples. We give an explicit bound for the constant, using the…

In this thesis we study in detail the self-intersection properties of Random Walks. Although notoriously hard to tackle, these properties are crucially related to the excluded-volume effect and other central features of real polymers. Our…

This paper studies length estimates for trajectories on flat cone surfaces in terms of their self-intersection numbers. For an area-one flat cone surface, we obtain a lower bound for the length of a trajectory, with constants depending only…

We consider an even probability distribution on the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space with the property that it assigns measure zero to any hyperplane through the origin. Given $N$ independent random vectors with this distribution, under the…

Near a singular point of a surface or a curve, geometric invariants diverge in general, and the orders of diverge, in particular the boundedness about these invariants represent geometry of the surface and the curve. In this paper, we study…

The problem of continuum percolation in dispersions of rods is reformulated in terms of weighted random geometric graphs. Nodes (or sites or vertices) in the graph represent spatial locations occupied by the centers of the rods. The…

The goal of this work is to study the smoothings of singular coaxial intersections of ellipsoids (where coaxial includes concentric) with generic singularities, with special attention to the 3-dimensional case.

We address the problem of bounding from below the self-intersection of integral curves on the projective plane blown-up at general points. In particular, by applying classical deformation theory we obtain the expected bound in the case of…

We study the defect (or "signed area") distribution of toral Laplace eigenfunctions restricted to shrinking balls of radius above the Planck scale, in either random Gaussian scenario ("Arithmetic Random Waves"), or deterministic…

Let $ \Omega \subset R^2$ be a bounded piecewise smooth domain and $\phi_\lambda$ be a Neumann (or Dirichlet) eigenfunction with eigenvalue $\lambda^2$ and nodal set ${ N}_{\phi_{\lambda}} = {x \in \Omega; \phi_{\lambda}(x) = 0}.$ Let $H…

We study Gauss curvature for random Riemannian metrics on a compact surface, lying in a fixed conformal class; our questions are motivated by comparison geometry. Next, analogous questions are considered for the scalar curvature in…

In this paper, we modified the three dimensional Navier-Stokes equations by adding a l-Laplacian. We provide upper bounds on the two-dimensional Hausdorff measure the level sets of the vorticity of solutions. We express them in terms of the…
