We study small non-trivial solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+\alpha_2x_2^2+\alpha_3x_3^2\equiv 0 \bmod{q}$, with $q$ being an odd natural number, in an average sense. This extends previous work of the authors in which…

This paper classifies spherical objects in various geometric settings in dimensions two and three, including both minimal and partial crepant resolutions of Kleinian singularities, as well as arbitrary flopping 3-fold contractions with only…

We study oriented connected closed polyhedral surfaces with non-degenerate triangular faces in three-dimensional Euclidean space, calling them polyhedra for short. A polyhedron is called flexible if its spatial shape can be changed…

We state several sufficient conditions for compact spacelike surface in the3-dimensional de Sitter space to be totally geodesic or spherical.

In this paper, we prove that on every Finsler $n$-sphere $(S^n, F)$ with reversibility $\lambda$ satisfying $F^2<(\frac{\lambda+1}{\lambda})^2g_0$ and $l(S^n, F)\ge \pi(1+\frac{1}{\lambda})$, there always exist at least $n$ prime closed…

We consider singular Q-acyclic surfaces with smooth locus of non-general type. We prove that if the singularities are topologically rational then the smooth locus is C^1- or C*-ruled or the surface is up to isomorphism one of two…

We show that the number of simple closed geodesics of length bounded by L on a hyperbolic surface of genus g with c cusps and b boundary components grows roughly like L^{6g+2b+2c-6}. This has been conjectured for some time.

Regular polytopes, the generalization of the five Platonic solids in 3 space dimensions, exist in arbitrary dimension $n\geq-1$; now in {\rm dim}. 2, 3 and 4 there are \emph{extra} polytopes, while in general dimensions only the…

Geodesic equations are solved when at least two of $\theta$, $\phi$ and $\psi$ are constant, or $r$ is constant, on scalar flat metrics of Eguchi-Hanson type. They can also be solved also on Eguchi-Hanson metrics which are Ricci flat if…

Let X^{circ} be the space of all labeled tetrahedra in P^{3}. In [BGS] we constructed a smooth symmetric compactification X-tilde of X^{circ}. In this article we show that the complement X-tilde smallsetminus X^{circ} is a divisor with…

We show the existence of at least two geometrically distinct closed geodesics on an n-dimensional sphere with a bumpy and non-reversible Finsler metric for n>2.

The rational homology of unordered configuration spaces of points on any surface was studied by Drummond-Cole and Knudsen. We compute the rational cohomology of configuration spaces on a closed orientable surface, keeping track of the mixed…

For each positive integer $Q\in\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 2}$, we prove a multi-valued $C^{1,\alpha}$ regularity theorem for varifolds in the class $\mathcal{S}_Q$, i.e., stable codimension one stationary integral $n$-varifolds which have no…

Geodesics in the space of positive Lagrangian submanifolds are solutions of a fully non-linear degenerate elliptic PDE. We show that a geodesic segment in the space of positive Lagrangians corresponds to a one parameter family of special…

We show that closed starshaped hypersurfaces of space forms with almost constant mean curvature or almost constant higher order mean curvature are closed to geodesic spheres.

We study the existence of closed geodesics on compact Riemannian orbifolds, and on noncompact Riemannian manifolds in the presence of a cocompact, isometric group action. We show that every noncontractible Riemannian manifold which admits…

We consider triangle faced convex polyhedra inscribed in the unit sphere $S^2$ in ${\Bbb{R}}^3$. One way of measuring their deviation from regular polyhedra with triangular faces is to consider the quotient of the lengths of the longest and…

We study the asymptotics of the number N(t) of geometrically distinct closed geodesics of a Riemannian or Finsler metric on a connected sum of two compact manifolds of dimension at least three with non-trivial fundamental groups and apply…

In this paper we present the construction of several aggregates of tetrahedra. Each construction is obtained by performing rotations on an initial set of tetrahedra that either (1) contains gaps between adjacent tetrahedra, or (2) exhibits…

Let S be a compact surface of genus >1, and g be a metric on S of constant curvature K\in\{-1,0,1\} with conical singularities of negative singular curvature. When K=1 we add the condition that the lengths of the contractible geodesics are…
