We study iterations of two classical constructions, the evolutes and involutes of plane curves, and we describe the limiting behavior of both constructions on a class of smooth curves with singularities given by their support functions.…
We initiate the study of computing shortest non-separating simple closed curves with some given topological properties on non-orientable surfaces. While, for orientable surfaces, any two non-separating simple closed curves are related by a…
We describe some regular techniques of calculating finite degree invariants of triple points free smooth plane curves $S^1 \to R^2$. They are a direct analog of similar techniques for knot invariants and are based on the calculus of {\em…
We present a generic solution to the fundamental problem of how to connect two points in a plane by a smooth curve that goes through these points with a given slope. The smoothness of any curve depends both on its curvature and its length.…

We present a new mimetic finite difference method for diffusion problems that converges on grids with \textit{curved} (i.e., non-planar) faces. Crucially, it gives a symmetric discrete problem that uses only one discrete unknown per curved…
This survey focuses on the geometric problem of log-surfaces, which are pairs consisting of a smooth projective surface and a reduced non-empty boundary divisor. In the first part, we focus on the geography problem for complex log-surfaces…
In this paper results from the differential geometry of curves are extended from normed planes to gauge planes which are obtained by neglecting the symmetry axiom. Based on the gauge analogue of the notion of Birkhoff orthogonality from…

The mean curvature flow describes the evolution of a surface (a curve) with normal velocity proportional to the local mean curvature. It has many applications in mathematics, science and engineering. In this paper, we develop a numerical…
Given a smooth projective complex curve inside a smooth projective surface, one can ask how its Hodge structure varies when the curve moves inside the surface. In this paper we develop a general theory to study the infinitesimal version of…
In this paper, we prove a `cut-by-curves criterion' for an overconvergent isocrystal on a smooth variety over a field of characteristic $p>0$ to extend logarithmically to its smooth compactification whose complement is a strict normal…
Numerical methods that preserves geometric invariants of the system such as energy, momentum and symplectic form, are called geometric integrators. These include variational integrators as an important subclass of geometric integrators. The…

Spherical $t$-designs are finite point sets on the unit sphere that enable exact integration of polynomials of degree at most $t$ via equal-weight quadrature. This concept has recently been extended to spherical $t$-design curves by the use…
The objective of this research is the development of a geometrically exact model for the analysis of arbitrarily curved spatial Bernoulli-Euler beams. The complete metric of the beam is utilized in order to include the effect of curviness…
