A translation structure on a surface is an atlas of charts to the plane so that the transition functions are translations. We allow our surfaces to be non-compact and infinite genus. We endow the space of all pointed surfaces equipped with…

Let $(M, \omega, J)$ be a K\"ahler manifold, equipped with an effective Hamiltonian torus action $\rho: T \rightarrow \mathrm{Diff}(M, \omega, J)$ by isometries with moment map $\mu: M \rightarrow \mathfrak{t}^{*}$. We first construct a…
The cosine transforms of functions on the unit sphere play an important role in convex geometry, the Banach space theory, stochastic geometry and other areas. Their higher-rank generalization to Grassmann manifolds represents an interesting…

In this paper we consider the so-called crystallographic Radon transform (or crystallographic $X$-ray transform) and totally geodesic Radon transform on the group of rotations SO(3). As we show both of these transforms naturally appear in…
In this paper we investigate the mapping properties in Lebesgue-type spaces of certain generalized Radon transforms defined by integration over curves.
This is an outline of work in progress concerning an algebro-geometric form of the Strominger-Yau-Zaslow conjecture. We introduce a limited type of degeneration of Calabi-Yau manifolds, which we call toric degenerations. For these, the…
Geometric torsions are torsions of acyclic complexes of vector spaces which consist of differentials of geometric quantities assigned to the elements of a manifold triangulation. We use geometric torsions to construct invariants for a…
A translational surface is a tensor product surface constructed from two space curves by translating one along the other. These surfaces are common within geometric modeling and, since their description is parametric, it is desirable to…
The monograph contains a systematic treatment of a circle of problems in analysis and integral geometry related to inversion of the Radon transform on the space of real rectangular matrices. This transform assigns to a function $f$ on the…
The star transform is a generalized Radon transform mapping a function of two variables to its integrals along "star-shaped" trajectories, which consist of a finite number of rays emanating from a common vertex. Such operators appear in…
The propagation of a light ray in thin layer (film) within geometrical optics is considered. It is assumed that the ray is captured inside the layer due to reflecting walls or total internal reflection (in the case of a dielectric layer).…
