We give an upper bound for the growth of homology torsions of finite coverings of irreducible 3-manifolds with tori boundary in terms of hyperbolic volume.
It has recently been established that two-dimensional massless graphene-like systems and three-dimensional line-node topological semimetals comprise a special class of centrosymmetric materials where edge/surface states of topological…
In this article, we consider surfaces in the 3-dimensional Euclidean space E3 without parabolic points which are of finite II-type, that is, they are of finite type, in the sense of B.-Y. Chen, corresponding to the second fundamental form.…
We generalize the notion of tight geodesics in the curve complex to tight trees. We then use tight trees to construct model geometries for certain surface bundles over graphs. This extends some aspects of the combinatorial model for doubly…
We construct examples of complete Riemannian manifolds having the property that every geodesic lies in a totally geodesic hyperbolic plane. Despite the abundance of totally geodesic hyperbolic planes, these examples are not locally…
We investigate ortho-integral (OI) hyperbolic surfaces with totally geodesic boundaries, defined by the property that every orthogeodesic (i.e. a geodesic arc meeting the boundary perpendicularly at both endpoints) has an integer…
We prove that every endomorphism of the mapping class group of an orientable surface onto a subgroup of finite index is in fact an automorphism.
In response to a question raised by Belolipetsky and the first author, we prove that for every finite group $G$ there are infinitely many isomorphism classes of compact complex hyperbolic $2$-manifolds with automorphism group isomorphic to…
In this paper we prove that a complete, embedded minimal surface $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with finite topology and compact boundary (possibly empty) is conformally a compact Riemann surface $\overline{M}$ with boundary punctured in a finite…
Let M be a closed hyperbolic three manifold. We construct closed surfaces which map by immersions into M so that for each one the corresponding mapping on the universal covering spaces is an embedding, or, in other words, the corresponding…
This paper constructs hyperbolic polyhedral metrics via circle packings. We introduce the curvature of circles as a parameter to include all three types of constant curvature curves in the hyperbolic geometry. This provides a unified…
In this paper, we study the geometry of surfaces with the generalised simple lift property. This work generalises previous results by Bernstein and Tinaglia, and it is motivated by the fact that leaves of a minimal lamination obtained as a…
We study the topology of (properly) immersed complete minimal surfaces $P^2$ in Hyperbolic and Euclidean spaces which have finite total extrinsic curvature, using some isoperimetric inequalities satisfied by the extrinsic balls in these…
We discuss geometric properties of covers of closed hyperbolic manifolds of dimension $n\geq 3$, branched along a totally geodesic codimension two submanifold $\Sigma$. The results are mostly known to the experts but hard to find in the…
We construct a quasiconformally homogeneous hyperbolic Riemann surface-other than the hyperbolic plane-that does not admit a bounded pants decomposition. Also, given a connected orientable topological surface of infinite type with compact…
The authors study the geometry of lightlike hypersurfaces on manifolds $(M, c)$ endowed with a pseudoconformal structure $c = CO (n - 1, 1)$ of Lorentzian signature. Such hypersurfaces are of interest in general relativity since they can be…
This is an expository paper which presents the holomorphic classification of rational complex surfaces from a simple and intuitive point of view, which is not found in the literature. Our approach is to compare this classification with the…
On a closed Riemannian surface of negative curvature, we prove a characterization for configurations of closed geodesics arising from one parameter Allen-Cahn min-max constructions. One of the facts we conclude is that every geodesic occurs…
We prove that a probability measure on a compact non-singular lamination by hyperbolic Riemann surfaces is harmonic if and only if it is the projection of a measure on the unit tangent bundle such that it is invariant under both the…
We present a construction of sequences of closed hyperbolic surfaces that have long systoles which form pants decompositions of these surfaces. The length of the systoles of these surfaces grows logarithmically as a function of their genus.
