We show that given a log-singular circle homeomorphism $h$ and given any $s\in[1,2]$, there is a flexible curve of Hausdorff dimension $s$ with welding $h$. We also see that there is another curve with welding $h$ and positive area. In…
We construct a Jordan curve $\Gamma \subset \mathbb{C}$ so that for any rectifiable arc $\sigma$ with endpoints in distinct complementary components of $\Gamma$, $H^1(\sigma \cap \Gamma) > 0$.
We give a negative answer to the rigidity conjecture of He and Schramm by constructing a rigid circle domain $\Omega$ on the Riemann sphere with conformally non-removable boundary. Here rigidity means that every conformal map from $\Omega$…
We consider Jordan curves of the form $\gamma=\cup_{j=1}^n \gamma_j$ on the Riemann sphere for which each $\gamma_j$ is a hyperbolic geodesic in $(\widehat{\mathbb C} \smallsetminus \gamma)\cup \gamma_j$. These Jordan curves are…
We construct a conformally invariant random family of closed curves in the plane by welding of random homeomorphisms of the unit circle. The homeomorphism is constructed using the exponential of $\beta X$ where $X$ is the restriction of the…
Ensuring non-interpenetration of matter is a fundamental prerequisite when modeling the deformation response of solid materials. In this contribution, we thoroughly examine how this requirement, equivalent to the injectivity of deformations…
Given a finitely connected region $\Omega$ of the Riemann sphere whose complement consists of $m$ mutually disjoint closed disks $\bar{U}_j$, the random homeomorphism $h_j$ on the boundary component $\partial U_j$ is constructed using the…
The matching problem for a given Jordan curve in the complex plane asks to find two nonconstant functions, one analytic in the bounded complementary component of the curve and the other analytic in the unbounded complementary component of…
We solve the classical conformal welding problem for a composition of two random homeomorphisms generated by independent Gaussian multiplicative chaos measures with small parameter values. In other words, given two such measures on the…
The Riemannian geometry of elastica in one and two dimensions is considered. An example is given of the deflexion or Frenet curvature of the elastic filament rod where the Riemannian curvature vanishes, since the curve is one dimensional.…
The fixed-point index of a homeomorphism of Jordan curves measures the number of fixed-points, with multiplicity, of the extension of the homeomorphism to the full Jordan domains in question. The now-classical Circle Index Lemma says that…
One can describe isomorphism of two compact hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of the same genus by a measure-theoretic property: a chosen isomorphism of their fundamental groups corresponds to a homeomorphism on the boundary of the Poincar\'e…
In conformal differential geometry, there are some distinguished curves, often known as 'conformal circles,' since, on the round sphere, they are the round circles (and these are conformally invariant). But on the two-sphere, the curves of…
We construct a conformally invariant random family of closed curves in the plane by welding of random homeomorphisms of the unit circle given in terms of the exponential of Gaussian Free Field. We conjecture that our curves are locally…
Let $W$ be a quasiprojective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Assume that $W$ is birational to a product of a smooth projective variety $A$ and the projective line. We prove that if $A$ contains no rational…
We show that every orientation-preserving circle homeomorphism is a composition of two conformal welding homeomorphisms, which implies that conformal welding homeomorphisms are not closed under composition. Our approach uses the…
The result is established for a Jordan measurable region with rectifiable boundary. The integrand F for the new plane integral to be used is a function of axis-parallel rectangles, finitely additive on non-overlapping ones, hence…
Let $f$ be a meromorphic function with simply connected domain $G\subset\mathbb{C}$, and let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{C}$ be a smooth Jordan curve. We call a component of $f^{-1}(\Gamma)$ in $G$ a $\Gamma$-$pseudo$-$lemniscate$ of $f$. In this…
A Riemannian geometry of noncommutative n-dimensional surfaces is developed as a first step towards the construction of a consistent noncommutative gravitational theory. Historically, as well, Riemannian geometry was recognized to be the…
We construct a family of random Jordan curves in the plane by welding together two disks on their boundaries using a random homeomorphism. This homeomorphism arises from a random measure whose density, in a generalized sense, is the…
