We establish sharp global regularity results for solutions to nonhomogeneous, nonunifomrly elliptic systems with zero boundary conditions. In particular, we obtain everywhere Lipschitz continuity under borderline Lorentz assumptions on the…

Given a curve $C$ over a number field $K$ equipped with the action of a finite group $G$ by $K$-automorphisms, one obtains a factorisation of $L(C,s)$ into a product of $L$-functions of `motivic pieces of curves' associated to irreducible…

Motivated by the classical Euler elastic curves, David A. Singer posed in 1999 the problem of determining a plane curve whose curvature is given in terms of its position. We propound the same question in Lorentz-Minkowski plane, focusing on…

It is well-known that every elliptic curve over the rationals admits a parametrization by means of modular functions. In this short note, we show that only finitely many elliptic curves over $\mathbf{Q}$ can be parametrized by modular…

We obtain improved local well-posedness results for the Lorentzian timelike minimal surface equation. In dimension $d=3$, for a surface of arbitrary co-dimension, we show a gain of $1/3$ derivative regularity compared to a generic equation…

We show that for every complete metric space $M$ there exists another complete metric space $N$ of the same density character such that the curve-flat quotient of $N$ is isometric to $M$. Moreover, we show that if $M$ is compact and…

We prove Hawking's singularity theorem for spacetime metrics of local Lipschitz regularity. The proof rests on (1) new estimates for the Ricci curvature of regularising smooth metrics that are based upon a quite general Friedrichs-type…

We equip the space of Cauchy hypersurfaces in a globally hyperbolic spacetime with a natural Hausdorff-type metric and study its properties, in particular completeness and local compactness, for Lorentzian manifolds and in more general…

We show that in one space dimension Lipschitz solutions of extremal surface equations are equivalent to entropy solutions in $L^\infty(\R)$ of a non-strictly hyperbolic system of conservation laws. We obtain an explicit representation…

In this paper we deal with the task of uniformly approximating an $L$-biLipschitz curve by means of piecewise linear ones. This is rather simple if one is satisfied to have approximating functions which are $L'$-biLipschitz, for instance…
