In this paper, we study the rigidity of hyperbolic polyhedral 3-manifolds and the volume optimization program of angle structures. We first study the rigidity of decorated 1-3 type hyperbolic polyhedral metrics on 3-manifolds which are…
In this paper, we demonstrate that the complete hyperbolic structure of various two-bridge knots and links cannot be deformed to an inequivalent strictly convex projective structure. We also prove a complementary result showing that under…
In the context of elasticity theory, rigidity theorems allow to derive global properties of a deformation from local ones. This paper presents a new asymptotic version of rigidity, applicable to elastic bodies with sufficiently stiff…
We show that any weakly partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism on the 2-torus may be realized as the dynamics on a center-stable or center-unstable torus of a 3-dimensional strongly partially hyperbolic system. We also construct examples of…
Convex geometries are closure systems satisfying the anti-exchange axiom. Every finite convex geometry can be embedded into a convex geometry of finitely many points in an n-dimensional space equipped with a convex hull operator, by the…
We study deformations of complex hyperbolic surfaces which furnish the simplest examples of: (i) negatively curved K\"ahler manifolds and (ii) negatively curved Riemannian manifolds not having {\it constant} curvature. Although such complex…
The vertex scaling for piecewise linear metrics on polyhedral surfaces was introduced by Luo, who proved the local rigidity by establishing a variational principle and conjectured the global rigidity. Luo's conjecture was solved by…
The space of marked n distinct points on the complex projective line up to projective transformations will be called a configuration space in this paper. There are two families of complex hyperbolic structures on the configuration space…
We study the deformation behavior of Kobayashi hyperbolic embeddings for complements of divisors in projective toric varieties. In the toric setting, entire curves in divisor complements propagate along algebraic subtori, allowing…
In this paper, we establish that the non-zero dihedral angles of hyperbolic Coxeter polyhedra of large dimensions are not arbitrarily small. Namely, for dimensions $n\geq 32$, they are of the form $\frac{\pi}{m}$ with $m\leq 6$. Moreover,…
Let M be a cusped 3-manifold, and let T be an ideal triangulation of M. The deformation variety D(T), a subset of which parameterises (incomplete) hyperbolic structures obtained on M using T, is defined and compactified by adding certain…
We study a class of degenerate hyperbolic equations in a bounded domain whose degeneracy occurs at a boundary point. We first develop the weighted functional framework, prove well-posedness of the degenerate problem, and establish…
We investigate lower bounds for the number of ideal and finite vertices of right-angled hyperbolic polyhedra of finite volume. We use a geometric method of orthogonal gluings to establish new bounds in low dimensions, specifically…
We extend the Kuga-Satake construction to the case of limit mixed Hodge structures of K3 type. We use this to study the geometry and Hodge theory of degenerations of Kuga-Satake abelian varieties, associated to polarized variations of K3…

We investigate the rigidity of hyperbolic cone metrics on $3$-manifolds which are isometric gluing of ideal and hyper-ideal tetrahedra in hyperbolic spaces. These metrics will be called ideal and hyper-ideal hyperbolic polyhedral metrics.…
Richmond and Richmond (Amer. Math. Monthly 104 (1997), 713--719) proved the following theorem: If, in a metric space with at least five points, all triangles are degenerate, then the space is isometric to a subset of the real line. We prove…
