We analyze the embedding dimension of a normal weighted homogeneous surface singularity, and more generally, the Poincar\'e series of the minimal set of generators of the graded algebra of regular functions, provided that the link of the…

In this article, first we give two formulae for the delta invariant of a complex curve singularity that can be embedded as a ${\mathbb Q}$-Cartier divisor in a normal surface singularity with rational homology sphere link. Next, we consider…

A smooth Hermitian surface $X$ is a projective surface isomorphic to the Fermat surface of degree $q+1$ in positive characteristic. We study incidence relations of the rational curves of degree $q+1$ contained in $X$, and show that such…

We define an Isometry germ at any given event $x$ of space-time as a vector field $\xi$ defined in a neighborhood of $x$ such that the Lie derivative of both the metric and the Riemannian connection are zero at this event. Two isometry…

The space of probability distributions on a given sample space possesses natural geometric properties. For example, in the case of a smooth parametric family of probability distributions on the real line, the parameter space has a…

Let $X$ be a ruled surface over a curve of genus $g$. We prove that $X$ has a scalar-flat Hermitian metric if and only if $g\geq 2$ and $m(X)>2-2g$ where $m(X)$ is an intrinsic number depends on the complex structure of $X$.

The germ of an algebraic variety is naturally equipped with two different metrics up to bilipschitz equivalence. The inner metric and the outer metric. One calls a germ of a variety Lipschitz normally embedded if the two metrics are…

We study outer Lipschitz geometry of real semialgebraic or, more general, definable in a polynomially bounded o-minimal structure over the reals, surface germs. In particular, any definable H\"older triangle is either Lipschitz normally…

Let $\gamma$ be a filling curve on a topological surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g \geq 2$. The inf invariant of $\gamma$, denoted $m_{\gamma}$, is the infimum of the length function on the space of marked hyperbolic structures on $\Sigma$. This…

We present a new approach for matching regular surfaces in a Riemannian setting. We use a Sobolev type metric on deformation vector fields which form the tangent bundle to the space of surfaces. In this article we compare our approach with…

For a germ $(X,0)$ of a normal complex analytic surface, let $E:=H^0({}^p_+IC_X\mathbb Z)_0$, where ${}^pIC_X\mathbb Z$ and ${}^p_+IC_X\mathbb Z$ denote the ordinary and dual middle-perversity intersection complexes with integral…

Let (V,0) be a germ of a complete intersection variety in \CC^{n+k}, n>0, having an isolated singularity at 0 and X be the germ of a holomorphic vector field on \CC^{n+k} tangent to V and having on V an isolated zero at 0. We show that in…

Pseudo-hermitian matrices are matrices hermitian with respect to an indefinite metric. They can be thought of as the truncation of pseudo-hermitian operators, defined over some Krein space, together with the associated metric, to a finite…

Let $C$ be a smooth elliptic curve embedded in a smooth complex surface $X$ such that $C$ is a leaf of a suitable holomorphic foliation of $X$. We investigate complex analytic properties of a neighborhood of $C$ under some assumptions on…

The image of a holomorphic map germ is not necessarily locally open, and it is not always well-defined as a set germ. We find the structure of what becomes the image of a map germ when the target is a surface. We encode it as a decorated…

We study the problem of finding algebraically stable models for non-invertible holomorphic fixed point germs $f\colon (X,x_0)\to (X,x_0)$, where $X$ is a complex surface having $x_0$ as a normal singularity. We prove that as long as $x_0$…

Ricci-Curbastro established necessary and sufficient conditions for a Riemannian metric on a surface to be the first fundamental form of a minimal immersion of that surface into the Euclidean space. We revisit certain developments arising…

Let $(X,d)$ be a proper ultrametric space. Given a measure $m$ on $X$ and a function $C(B)$ defined on the set of all non-singleton balls $B$ we consider the hierarchical Laplacian $L=L_{C}$. Choosing a sequence $\{\varepsilon (B)\}$ of…

We construct a family of self-adjoint operators on the prime numbers whose entries depend on pairwise arithmetic divergences, replacing geometric distance with number-theoretic dissimilarity. The resulting spectra encode how coherence…

In the first half of twentieth century the theory of complex analytic functions and of their zerosets was fully developed. The definition of holomorphic function has a local nature. Germs of holomorphic functions form a distinguished…
