We study non-flat planar 3-webs with infinitesimal symmetries. Using multi-dimensional Schwarzian derivative we give a criterion for linearization of such webs and present a projective classification thereof. Using this classification we…
Gronwall conjecture states that a planar 3-web which admits more than one distinct linearization is locally equivalent to an algebraic web. We give a partial answer to the conjecture in the affirmative for the class of planar 3-webs with…
The Gronwall conjecture states that a planar 3-web of foliations which admits more than one distinct linearizations is locally equivalent to an algebraic web. We propose an analogue of the Gronwall conjecture for the 3-web of foliations by…
We find relative differential invariants of orders eight and nine for a planar nonparallelizable 3-web such that their vanishing is necessary and sufficient for a 3-web to be linearizable. This solves the Blaschke conjecture for 3-webs. As…
In this paper we study the linearizability problem for 3-webs on a 2-dimensional manifold. With an explicit computation based on the theory developed in the paper "On the linearizability of 3-webs" (Nonlinear analysis 47, (2001) pp.…
In this paper we will explore a way to prove the hundred years old Gronwall's conjecture: if two plane linear 3-webs with non-zero curvature are locally isomorphic, then the isomorphism is a homography. Using recent results of S. I.…
In the present paper we study geometric structures associated with webs of hypersurfaces. We prove that with any geodesic (n+2)-web on an n-dimensional manifold there is naturally associated a unique projective structure and, provided that…
In the article "On the linearizability of 3-webs" (Nonlinear analysis 47, (2001) pp.2643-2654), published in 2001, we studied the linearizability problem for 3-webs on a 2-dimensional manifold. Four years after the publication of our…
Let W be a planar 3-web defined on a neighborhood of a point M. We call "symmetry of W around M" any local diffeomorphism which fixes M and maps each foliation of W to a (not necessarily the same) foliation of W. We say that it is a simple…
There are two theories describing the linearizability of 3-webs: one is developed in the article "On the linearizability of 3-webs" (Nonlinear analysis 47, (2001) pp.2643-2654) and another in the article "On the Blaschke conjecture for…
This paper investigates flat webs on the projective plane. We present two methods for constructing such webs: the first involves taking the product of finitely many convex reduced foliations and invariant lines, while the second consists of…
We study tensor network varieties associated with the triangular graph, with a focus on the case where one of the physical dimensions is 2. This allows us to interpret the tensors as pencils of matrices. We provide a complete…
We study foliations by curves on the three-dimensional projective space with no isolated singularities, which is equivalent to assuming that the conormal sheaf is locally free. We provide a classification of the topological and algebraic…
The aim of this work is to study global $3$-webs with vanishing curvature. We wish to investigate degree $3$ foliations for which their dual web is flat. The main ingredient is the Legendre transform, which is an avatar of classical…
We prove that any planar 4-web defines a unique projective structure in the plane in such a way that the leaves of the foliations are geodesics of this projective structure. We also find conditions for the projective structure mentioned…
We propose a simple geometrical construction of topological invariants of 3-strand Brownian braids viewed as world lines of 3 particles performing independent Brownian motions in the complex plane z. Our construction is based on the…
We investigate several conjectures in geometric topology by assembling computer data obtained by studying weaving knots, a doubly infinite family $W(p,n)$ of examples of hyperbolic knots. In particular, we compute some important polynomial…
Manifolds endowed with three foliations pairwise transversal are known as 3-webs. Equivalently, they can be algebraically defined as biparacomplex or complex product manifolds, i.e., manifolds endowed with three tensor fields of type…
This article focuses on a combinatorial structure specific to triangulated plane graphs with quadrangular outer face and no separating triangle, which are called irreducible triangulations. The structure has been introduced by Xin He under…
This paper studies global webs on the projective plane with vanishing curvature. The study is based on an interplay of local and global arguments. The main local ingredient is a criterium for the regularity of the curvature at the…
