Let $(M,g)$ be a complete $(n+1)$-dimensional Riemannian manifold with $2\leq n\leq 6$. Our main theorem generalizes the solution of S.-T. Yau's conjecture on the abundance of minimal surfaces and builds on a result of M. Gromov. Suppose…

We consider several natural sets of curves associated to a given Teichm\"uller disc, such as the systole set or cylinder set, and study their coarse geometry inside the curve graph. We prove that these sets are quasiconvex and agree up to…

We introduce the notion of a one-way horseshoe and show that the polynomial entropy of an interval map is given by one-way horseshoes of iterates of the map, obtaining in such a way an analogue of Misiurewicz's theorem on topological…

Using sheaf theory, I introduce a continuous theory of persistence for mappings between compact manifolds. In the case both manifolds are orientable, the theory holds for integer coefficients. The sheaf introduced here is stable to…

We introduce Schottky maps-conformal maps between relative Schottky sets, and study their local rigidity properties. This continues the investigations of relative Schottky sets initiated in [S. Merenkov, "Planar relative Schottky sets and…

We show that the topological entropy is monotonic for unimodal interval maps which are obtained from the restriction of quadratic rational maps with real coefficients. This is done by ruling out the existence of certain post-critical curves…

We prove some restriction theorems for flat homogeneous surfaces of codimension greater than one.

We prove that a pseudoholomorphic diffeomorphism between two almost complex manifolds with boundaries satisfying some pseudoconvexity type condition cannot map a pseudoholomorphic disc in the boundary to a single point. This can be viewed…

The monotonicity of entropy is investigated for real quadratic rational maps on the real circle $\mathbb{R}\cup\{\infty\}$ based on the natural partition of the corresponding moduli space $\mathcal{M}_2(\mathbb{R})$ into its monotonic,…

We describe the relation of $r$-similarity and finite-order invariants on the homotopy set $[S^1,Y]=\pi_1(Y)$.

We prove that each isometric isomorphism, between the monoids of all nonegative 1-Lipschitz maps defined on invariant metric groups and equiped with the inf-convolution law, is given canonically from an isometric isomorphism between their…

We prove that any flat family $(\mathcal{ F}_u)_{u\in U}$ of rank 2 torsion-free sheaves on a Gauduchon surface defines a continuous map on the semi-stable locus $U^{\mathrm {ss}}:=\{u\in U \ |\ \mathcal{ F}_u\hbox{ is slope semi-stable}\}$…

In this paper we are concerned with the monodromy of Picard-Fuch differential equations associated with one-parameter families of Calabi-Yau threefolds. Our results show that in the hypergeometric cases the matrix representations of…

In this paper, we give complete classifications of linear $\infty$-harmonic maps between Euclidean and Heisenberg spaces, between Nil and Sol spaces. We also classify all $\infty$-harmonic linear endomorphisms of Sol space and show that…

We consider the class univalent log-harmonic mappings on the unit disk. Firstly, we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for a complex-valued continuous function to be starlike or convex in the unit disk. Then we present a general…

Using Rauch's comparison theorem, we prove several monotonicity inequalities for Riemannian submanifolds. Our main result is a general Li-Yau inequality which is applicable in any Riemannian manifold whose sectional curvature is bounded…

Sard's theorem asserts that the set of critical values of a smooth map from one Euclidean space to another one has measure zero. A version of this result for infinite-dimensional Banach manifolds was proven by Smale for maps with Fredholm…

Given an autohomeomorphism on an ordered topological space or its subspace, we show that it is sometimes possible to introduce a new topology-compatible order on that space so that the same map is monotonic with respect to the new ordering.…

To every half-translation surface, we associate a saddle connection graph, which is a subgraph of the arc graph. We prove that every isomorphism between two saddle connection graphs is induced by an affine homeomorphism between the…

The analog of the Schauder inequality for closed surfaces in Euclidean spaces is obtained in this article.
