We present numerical polyhedron data for the image of a piecewise-linear map from a zero-curvature Klein bottle into Euclidean 3-space such that every point in the domain has a neighborhood which is isometrically embedded. To the author's…
Donald Davis initiated the study of an $n$-dimensional analogue of the Klein bottle. This generalized Klein bottle occurs as a moduli space of planar polygons for a certain choice of side lengths. In this paper, we show that the…
The geodesic complexity of a metric space X is the smallest k for which there is a partition of X x X into ENRs E_0,...,E_k on each of which there is a continuous choice of minimal geodesic sigma(x_0,x_1) from x_0 to x_1. We prove that the…
We present an explicit piecewise linear map from a flat Klein bottle (i.e. one that is locally isometric to the Euclidean plane) into Euclidean 3-space an that is an isometric immersion -- a path isometry that is locally injective. The…
Together with the Moebius strip, the Klein bottle is one of the intriguing objects in the universe of geometry, sometimes appearing in non-mathematical contexts too. Until now, several parametrizations of it as a surface immersed in…
Bredon and Wood have given a complete answer to the embeddability question for nonorientable surfaces in lens spaces. They formulate their result in terms of a recursive formula that determines, for a given lens space, the minimal genus of…
We explore a higher-dimensional universe that is a product of Minkowski space and the nonorientable Klein bottle. The topology explicitly breaks important symmetries, such as translational invariance and (5+1)-dimensional CP invariance.…
It is shown that an embedded Lagrangian Klein bottle represents a non-trivial mod 2 homology class in a compact symplectic four-manifold $(X,\omega)$ with $c_1(X)\cdot[\omega]>0$. (In versions 1 and 2, the last assumption was missing. A…
In this paper we study the homogeneous Kaehler manifolds (h.K.m.) which can be Kaehler immersed into finite or infinite dimensional complex space forms. On one hand we completely classify the h.K.m. which can be Kaehler immersed into a…
We show that Lawson's bipolar surface $\tilde\tau_{3,1}$ is after stereographic projection the unique minimizer among immersed Klein bottles in its conformal class. We conjecture that it actually is the unique minimizer among immersed Klein…
We study the spaces of embeddings of manifolds in a Euclidean space. More precisely we look at the homotopy fiber of the inclusion of these spaces to the spaces of immersions. As a main result we express the rational homotopy type of…
It is shown that the n-dimensional Klein bottle admits a Lagrangian embedding into R^{2n} if and only if n is odd.
We investigate self-similar solutions to the inverse mean curvature flow in Euclidean space. In the case of one dimensional planar solitons, we explicitly classify all homothetic solitons and translators. Generalizing Andrews' theorem that…
Let $f\colon M^{2n}\to\mathbb{R}^{2n+p}$ denote an isometric immersion of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $n\geq 2$ into Euclidean space with codimension $p$. If $2p\leq 2n-1$, we show that generic rank conditions on the second…
We propose a high dimensional generalisation of the standard Klein bottle, going beyond those considered previously. We address the problem of generating continuous scalar fields (distributions) and dynamical systems (flows) on such state…
We establish existence and regularity results for normal Coulomb frames in the normal bundle of two-dimensional surfaces of disc-type embedded in Euclidean spaces of higher dimensions.
Quantum versions of the hydrogen atom and the harmonic oscillator are studied on non Euclidean spaces of dimension N. 2N-1 integrals, of arbitrary order, are constructed via a multi-dimensional version of the factorization method, thus…
Let $f\colon M^{2n}\to\mathbb{R}^{2n+\ell}$, $n \geq 5$, denote a conformal immersion into Euclidean space with codimension $\ell$ of a Kaehler manifold of complex dimension $n$ and free of flat points. For codimensions $\ell=1,2$ we show…
Using a recent result of Bowden, Hensel and Webb, we prove the existence of a homeomorphism with positive stable commutator length in the group of homeomorphisms of the Klein bottle which are isotopic to the identity.
In this paper, we show how to construct graph theoretical models of n-dimensional continuous objects and manifolds. These models retain topological properties of their continuous counterparts. An LCL collection of n-cells in Euclidean space…
