Let $\mathbb{Q}_3$ be the complex 3-quadric endowed with its standard complex conformal structure. We study the complex conformal geometry of isotropic curves in $\mathbb{Q}_3$. By an isotropic curve we mean a nonconstant holomorphic map…

We introduce and study a novel uniformization metric model for the quasi-Fuchsian space QF(S) of a closed oriented surface S, defined through a class of C-valued bilinear forms on S, called Bers metrics, which coincide with hyperbolic…

We study conditions under which quasi-conformal homeomorphisms are quasi-isometries. We show that if two nilpotent geodesic Lie groups are quasi-conformally homeomorphic, then they are quasi-isometrically equivalent. We also give more…

In the present paper we consider a special class of Lorentz surfaces in the four-dimensional pseudo-Euclidean space with neutral metric which are one-parameter systems of meridians of rotational hypersurfaces with timelike or spacelike axis…

The aim of this paper is to verify that the study of generic conformally flat hypersurfaces in 4-dimensional space forms is reduced to a surface theory in the standard 3-sphere. The conformal structure of generic conformally flat…

In this note we discuss the geometry of Riemannian surfaces having a discrete set of singular points. We assume the conformal structure extends through the singularities and the curvature is integrable. Such points are called \emph{simple…

While the notion of isometric deformations of surfaces is straightforward for surfaces with Euclidean metric, a corresponding notion in isotropic space has been missing. By making Gauss' Theorema Egregium a necessary condition we develop a…

Measuring the similarity of curves is a fundamental problem arising in many application fields. There has been considerable interest in several such measures, both in Euclidean space and in more general setting such as curves on Riemannian…

We prove a monotone Sobolev extension theorem for maps to Jordan domains with rectifiable boundary in metric surfaces of locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure. This is then used to prove a uniformization result for compact metric surfaces by…

Certain semi-Riemannian metrics can be decomposed into a Riemannian part and an isochronal part. The properties of such metrics are particularly easy to visualize in a coordinate-free way, using isometric embedding. We present such an…

This paper is inspired from the nice result of Andrew Hassell on the eigenfunctions in the stadium billiard. From a classical paper of V. Arnol'd, we know that quasi-modes are not always close to exact modes. We show that, for almost all…
