A pseudocircle is a simple closed curve on some surface; an arrangement of pseudocircles is a collection of pseudocircles that pairwise intersect in exactly two points, at which they cross. Ortner proved that an arrangement of pseudocircles…

Bifurcation with symmetry is considered in the case of an isotropy subgroup with a two-dimensional fixed point subspace and non-zero quadratic terms. In general, there are one or three branches of solutions, and five qualitatively different…

This article gives the construction and complete classification of all three-dimensional spherical manifolds, and orders them by decreasing volume, in the context of multiconnected universe models with positive spatial curvature. It…

A generalized Stiefel manifold is the manifold of orthonormal frames in a vector space with a non-degenerated bilinear or hermitian form. In this article, the Isometry group of the generalized Stiefel manifolds are computed at least up to…

Consider the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^3$ endowed with a canonical semi-symmetric non-metric connection determined by a vector field $\mathsf{C}\in\mathfrak{X}(\mathbb{R}^3)$. We study surfaces when the sectional curvature with respect to…

Special generic maps are higher dimensional versions of Morse functions with exactly two singular points, characterizing spheres topologically except $4$-dimensional cases: in these cases standard spheres are characterized. Canonical…

We introduce a general notion of "genericity" for countable subsets of a space with Borel measure, and apply it to the set of vertices in the curve complex of a surface S, interpreted as subset of the space of projective measured…

We prove that any compact surface with constant positive curvature and conical singularities can be decomposed into irreducible components of standard shape, glued along geodesic arcs connecting conical singularities. This is a spherical…

Square-tiled surfaces can be classified by their number of squares and their cylinder diagrams (also called realizable separatrix diagrams). For the case of $n$ squares and two cone points with angle $4 \pi$ each, we set up and parametrize…

We consider spherical quadrangulations -- spherical embeddings of multigraphs, possibly with loops, so that every face has boundary walk of length 4 -- in which all vertices have degree 3 or 4. Interpreting each degree 4 vertex as a…

A problem that is simple to state in the context of spherical geometry, and that seems rather interesting, appears to have been unexamined to date in the mathematical literature. The problem can also be recast as a problem in the real…

We give a classification and a construction of all smooth $(n-1)$-dimensional varieties of lines in ${\bf P}\sp n$ verifying that all their lines meet a curve. This also gives a complete classification of $(n-1)$-scrolls over a curve…

The edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent polygons, where all edges are straight, have been completely classified. We classify the curvilinear version of the similar triangular tilings, where the edges may not be straight, and…

The class of all quasigroups is covered by six classes: the class of all asymmetric quasigroups and five varieties of quasigroups (commutative, left symmetric, right symmetric, semi-symmetric and totally symmetric). Each of these classes is…

It has long been conjectured that starting at a generic smooth closed embedded surface in R^3, the mean curvature flow remains smooth until it arrives at a singularity in a neighborhood of which the flow looks like concentric spheres or…

The space of quadrilaterals with fixed side lengths is an elliptic curve. Darboux used this to prove a porism on foldings. In this article, the space of oriented quadrilaterals is studied on the base of biquadratic equations between their…

A quadric in $\R P^3$ cuts a curve of degree 6 on a cubic surface in $\R P^3$. The papers classifies the nonsingular curves cut in this way on non-singular cubic surfaces up to homeomorphism. Two issues new in the study related to the first…
