We explicitly calculate the fundamental group of the space $\mathcal F$ of all immersed closed curves on a surface $F$. It is shown that $\pi_n(\mathcal F)=0$, n>1 for $F\neq S^2, RP^2$. It is also proved that $\pi_2(\mathcal F)=\Z$, and…

Suppose a smooth planar curve $\gamma$ is $2\pi$-periodic in the $x$ direction and the length of one period is $\ell$. It is shown that if $\gamma$ self-intersects, then it has a segment of length $\ell- 2\pi$ on which it self-intersects…

A smooth curve $\gamma: [0,1] \to \Ss^2$ is locally convex if its geodesic curvature is positive at every point. J. A. Little showed that the space of all locally convex curves $\gamma$ with $\gamma(0) = \gamma(1) = e_1$ and $\gamma'(0) =…

We study the horizontally regular curves in the Heisenberg groups $H_n$. We show the fundamental theorem of curves in $H_n$ $(n\geq 2)$ and define the concept of the orders for horizontally regular curves. We also show that the curve…

We study the isometry groups of compact spherical orientable $3$-orbifolds $S^3/G$, where $G$ is a finite subgroup of $\mathrm{SO}(4)$, by determining their isomorphism type. Moreover, we prove that the inclusion of $\mbox{Isom}(S^3/G)$…

We consider the class $S^m_\perp(\Omega)$ of $m$-dimensional surfaces in $\bar{\Omega} \subset {\mathbb R}^n$ which intersect $S = \partial \Omega$ orthogonally along the boundary. A piece of an affine $m$-plane in $S^m_\perp(\Omega)$ is…

We show that any holomorphic germ $f \colon (X,x_0) \to (Y,y_0)$ of topological degree $1$ between normal surface singularities can be written as $f=\pi \circ \sigma$, where $\pi \colon Y' \to (Y,y_0)$ is a modification and $\sigma \colon…

We consider Thurston maps, i.e., branched covering maps $f\colon S^2\to S^2$ that are postcritically finite. In addition, we assume that $f$ is expanding in a suitable sense. It is shown that each sufficiently high iterate $F=f^n$ of $f$ is…

In this paper, orthogonal projection along a geodesic to the chosen k-plane is introduced using edge and Gram matrix of an n-simplex in hyperbolic or spherical n-space. The distance from a point to k-plane is obtained by the orthogonal…
