Let $C$ be a smooth, convex curve on either the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2}$, the hyperbolic plane $\mathbb{H}^{2}$ or the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{E}^{2}$, with the following property: there exists $\alpha$, and parameterizations $x(t), y(t)$…

In this paper, we show that, by applying some results on modular symbols, for a family of certain elliptic curves defined over $\mathbb Q$, there is a large class of explicit quadratic twists whose complex $L$-series does not vanish at…

Clemm and Trebat-Leder (2014) proved that the number of quadratic number fields with absolute discriminant bounded by $x$ over which there exist elliptic curves with good reduction everywhere and rational $j$-invariant is $\gg…

In Euclidean geometry, a bicentric quadrilateral is a convex quadrilateral that has both a circumcircle passing through the four vertices and an incircle having the four sides as tangents. Consider a bicentric quadrilateral with rational…

The family of Euclidean triangles having some fixed perimeter and area can be identified with a subset of points on a nonsingular cubic plane curve, i.e., an elliptic curve; furthermore, if the perimeter and the square of the area are…

We show that in Euclidean 3-space any closed curve $\gamma$ which contains the unit sphere within its convex hull has length $L\geq4\pi$, and characterize the case of equality. This result generalizes the authors' recent solution to a…

Let $h : \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2$ be an orientation preserving homeomorphism of the plane. For any bounded orbit $\mathcal{O}(x)=\{h^n(x):n\in\mathbb{Z}\}$ there exists a fixed point $x'\in\mathbb{R}^2$ of $h$ linked to…

We formulate an equivariant conservation of number, which proves that a generalized Euler number of a complex equivariant vector bundle can be computed as a sum of local indices of an arbitrary section. This involves an expansion of the…

We present relations between cycles with rational coefficients modulo algebraic equivalence on the Jacobian of a curve. These relations depend on the linear systems the curve admits. They are obtained in the tautological ring, the smallest…

Any two $(g; 0, 0, k)$-trisected closed 4-manifolds are related to each other by cutting and regluing in regard to $\gamma$ curves by an element of the Torelli group. Moreover, Lambert-Cole showed that this element can be replaced by an…

We give equations for 13 genus-2 curves over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, with models over $\mathbb{Q}$, whose unpolarized Jacobians are isomorphic to the square of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication by a maximal order. If the…

We address the question of what is the correct higher dimensional analogue of Jordan curves from the point of view of quantitative rectifiability. More precisely, we show that 'topologically stable' sets can be used as covering objects in…

There are many four vertex type theorems appearing in the literature, coming in both smooth and discrete flavors. The most familiar of these is the classical theorem in differential geometry, which states that the curvature function of a…

We show that any minimal torus in $S^3$ which is Alexandrov immersed must be rotationally symmetric. An analogous result holds for surfaces of constant mean curvature.

A convex quadrilateral with sides a,b,c,d, and diagonals p,q is cyclic iff abp-bcq+cdp-daq=0. This condition, in spite of its simplicity, appears to be unnoted and unexpectedly proof-resilient. We employ advanced methods of computer algebra…

We consider the Chow ring with rational coefficients of the Jacobian of a curve. Assume D is a divisor in a base point free g^r_d of the curve such that the canonical divisor K is a multiple of the divisor D. We find relations between…

We prove that the cohomology class of any curve on a very general principally polarized abelian variety of dimension at least 4 is an even multiple of the minimal class. The same holds for the intermediate Jacobian of a very general cubic…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ such that $\mathrm{End}_{\bar{\mathbb{Q}}}(E)=\mathbb{Z}$ and which admits a non-trivial cyclic $\mathbb{Q}$-isogeny. We prove that, for $p>37$, the residual mod $p$ Galois representation…

A peculiarity of the geometry of the euclidean 3-sphere $\S3$ is that it allows for the existence of compact without boundary minimally immersed surfaces. Despite a wealthy of examples of such surfaces, the only known tori minimally…

In this work, we establish new rigidity results for the Maslov class of Lagrangian submanifolds in large classes of closed and convex symplectic manifolds. Our main result establishes upper bounds for the minimal Maslov number of…
