Hass and Scott's example of a 4-valent graph on the 3-punctured sphere that cannot be realized by geodesics in any metric of negative curvature is generalized to impossible configurations filling surfaces of genus $n$ with $k$ punctures for…
We consider whether any two triangulations of a polygon or a point set on a non-planar surface with a given metric can be transformed into each other by a sequence of edge flips. The answer is negative in general with some remarkable…
We have found a "non-purely-constructive" method of acquiring algebraic cycles involving multiple steps. This note tries to present the main idea in the last step by concentrating on an example of 4-folds. The method demonstrates a contrast…
For a geodesic ball with non-negative Ricci curvature and almost maximal volume, without using compactness argument, we construct an $\epsilon$-splitting map on a concentric geodesic ball with uniformly small radius. There are two new…
We classify edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent pentagons with the edge combination $a^4b$ and with rational angles in degree: they are a one-parameter family of symmetric $a^4b$-pentagonal subdivisions of the tetrahedron with…
The goal of this technical note is to show that the geometry of generalized parabolic towers cannot be essentially bounded. It fills a gap in author's paper "Combinatorics, geomerty and attractors of quasi-quadratic maps", Annals of Math.,…
Let \Gamma be a non-cocompact lattice on a locally finite regular right-angled building X. We prove that if \Gamma has a strict fundamental domain then \Gamma is not finitely generated. We use the separation properties of subcomplexes of X…
We construct examples of (effective) closed orbifolds which are covered by manifolds, but not finitely so.
Starting from suitable large cardinals, we force the failure of (weak) diamond at the least inaccessible cardinal. The result improves an unpublished theorem of Woodin and a recent result of Ben-Neria, Garti and Hayut.
There does not exist an algorithm that can determine whether or not a group presented by commutators is a right-angled Artin group.
We prove two inequalities for the complex orientations of a separating (Type I) non-singular real algebraic curve in $RP^2$ of any odd degree. We also construct a separating non-singular pseudoholomorphic curve in $RP^2$ of any degree…
In classical geometry, there is no such well-known and much-studied topic as the construction of conic sections (or briefly conics) from its five points. Its importance in many applications of mechanical engineering, civil engineering and…
In this paper, we prove that a very general cubic threefold does not admit a universal codimension-two cycle and hence is stably irrational.
The ratio of convexity radius over injectivity radius may be made arbitrarily small within the class of compact Riemannian manifolds of any fixed dimension at least two. This is proved using Gulliver's method of constructing manifolds with…
We study the dissection of a square into congruent convex polygons. Yuan \emph{et al.} [Dissecting the square into five congruent parts, Discrete Math. \textbf{339} (2016) 288-298] asked whether, if the number of tiles is a prime number…
We show that in contrast to the Rado graph, the Henson graphs are not computably indivisible.
The geometric algebra is constructed from minimal raw materials.
We prove that, consistently, there exists a weakly but not strongly inaccessible cardinal $\lambda$ for which the sequence $\langle 2^\theta:\theta<\lambda\rangle$ is not eventually constant and the weak diamond fails at $\lambda$. We also…
In the past 15 years a study of ``noncommutative projective geometry'' has flourished. By using and generalizing techniques of commutative projective geometry, one can study certain noncommutative graded rings and obtain results for which…
There are known constructions for some regular polygons, usually inscribed in a circle, but not for all polygons - the Gauss-Wantzel Theorem states precisely which ones can be constructed. The constructions differ greatly from one polygon…
