In this paper we describe a four dimensional family of special rational elliptic surfaces admitting an involution with isolated fixed points. For each surface in this family we calculate explicitly the action of a spectral version of the…

We study $C^1$-regular surfaces in $R^3$ that admit tilings by a finite number of rigid motion congruence classes of tiles. We construct examples with various topologies and present a framework for a systematic study, mainly concentrating…

We introduce a notion of normal form for transversely projective structures of singular foliations on complex manifolds. Our first main result says that this normal form exists and is unique when ambient space is two-dimensional. From this…

The material structure of bodies undergoing growth is considered. In the geometric framework of a general differential manifold modeling the physical space and a fiber bundle modeling spacetime, body points may be defined for any extensive…

We investigate three-dimensional surfaces where the normal vector forms a constant angle with the radius vector. These surfaces naturally extend equiangular (logarithmic) spirals in the plane.

In this paper, we study some relationships existing between some particular mathematical structures: discrete surfaces coming from discrete topology and mathematical morphology, poset-based connected manifolds coming from discrete topology,…

Let $X$ be surface with isolated singularities in the complex projective space $P^3$ and let denote $Y$ the smooth part of $X$. In this note we discuss some aspects of the topology of such quasi-projective surfaces $Y$: the fundamental…

We survey - by means of 20 examples - the concept of varifold, as generalised submanifold, with emphasis on regularity of integral varifolds with mean curvature, while keeping prerequisites to a minimum. Integral varifolds are the natural…

We consider geometric triangulations of surfaces, i.e., triangulations whose edges can be realized by disjoint locally geodesic segments. We prove that the flip graph of geometric triangulations with fixed vertices of a flat torus or a…

We prove that the cohomology sheaves of the relative dualizing complex of a flat family of varieties with semi-log-canonical or Du Bois singularities are flat and commute with base change. This is a local version of our earlier similar…

Some linear dynamical systems over finite fields are studied and the self-similar character of their development is proved. Connections with aperiodic tilings, Delanoy numbers and other topics are also proved. The prime fields F_p have a…

We compare a couple of notions of differential form on singular complex algebraic varieties, and relate them to the outermost associated graded spaces of the Hodge filtration of ordinary and intersection cohomology. In particular, we…

We derive simple forms for saddle-node singular points of analytic foliations in the real or complex plane just by gluing foliated complex manifolds. We give the versal analytic deformation of the simplest model. We also derive a unique…

Consider a complex one dimensional foliation on a complex surface near a singularity $p$. If $\mathcal{I}$ is a closed invariant set containing the singularity $p$, then $\mathcal{I}$ contains either a separatrix at $p$ or an invariant real…
