The goal of this paper is to develop some aspects of the deformation theory of piecewise flat structures on surfaces and use this theory to construct new geometric structures on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces.
We give a local analytic characterization that a minimal surface in the 3-sphere $\, \ES^3 \subset \R^4$ defined by an irreducible cubic polynomial is one of the Lawson's minimal tori. This provides an alternative proof of the result by…
The main purpose of this note is to construct almost complex or complex structures on certain isoparametric hypersurfaces in unit spheres. As a consequence, complex structures on $S^1\times S^7\times S^6$, and on $S^1\times S^3\times S^2$…
In this paper, continuing our previous work, we investigate the third gap problem in the Simon conjecture for closed minimal surfaces in the unit sphere. By developing refined third-order Simons-type integral identities and establishing new…
In this paper, we define the inverse surface of a tangent developable surface with respect to the sphere S_{c}(r) with the center $c\in \mathbb{E}^{3}$ and the radius r in 3-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{E}^{3}$. We obtain the…
We propose a general framework for constructing and describing infinite type flat surfaces of finite area. Using this method, we characterize the range of dynamical behaviors possible for the vertical translation flows on such flat…
In a Type III degeneration of K3-surfaces the dual graph of the central fibre is a triangulation of the 2-sphere. We realise the tetrahedral, octahedral and especially the icosahedral triangulation in families of K3-surfaces, preferably…
Those maps of a closed surface to the three-dimensional torus that are homotopic to embeddings are characterized. Particular attention is paid to the somewhat intricate case when the surface is nonorientable.
We state several sufficient conditions for compact spacelike surface in the3-dimensional de Sitter space to be totally geodesic or spherical.
W. Thurston proved that to a triangulation of the sphere of non-negative combinatorial curvature, one can associate an element in a certain lattice over the Eisenstein integers such that its orbit is a complete invariant of the…
Motivated by potential applications in architecture, we study Darboux cyclides. These algebraic surfaces of order a most 4 are a superset of Dupin cyclides and quadrics, and they carry up to six real families of circles. Revisiting the…
In this paper, one of a series devoted to the classification, the moduli spaces and the discovery of new surfaces of general type with geometric genus p_g= 0, we generalize a classical construction method due to Burniat (and revisited by…
We give a complete topological classification of minimal surfaces in Euclidian three-space.
Some classification results for closed surfaces in Berger spheres are presented. On the one hand, a Willmore functional for isometrically immersed surfaces into an homogeneous space $\mathbb{E}^{3}(\kappa,\tau)$ with isometry group of…
In tropical geometry, one studies algebraic curves using combinatorial techniques via the tropicalization procedure. The tropicalization depends on a map to an algebraic torus and the combinatorial methods are most useful when the…
This paper is a continuation of our paper math.AG/0205321 where we have built a combinatorial model for the torus fibrations of Calabi-Yau toric hypersurfaces. This part addresses the connection between the model torus fibration and the…
The self intersection of an immersion i : S^2 \to R^3 dissects S^2 into pieces which are planar surfaces (unless i is an embedding). In this work we determine what collections of planar surfaces may be obtained in this way. In particular,…
In this paper, we study the restriction estimate for a certain surface of finite type in $\mathbb{R}^3$, and partially improves the results of Buschenhenke-M\"{u}ller-Vargas. The key ingredients of the proof include the so called…
We introduce a simple combinatorial way, which we call a rectangular diagram of a surface, to represent a surface in the three-sphere. It has a particularly nice relation to the standard contact structure on $\mathbb S^3$ and to rectangular…
We construct algebraic families of exotic affine 3-spheres, that is, smooth affine threefolds diffeomorphic to a non-degenerate smooth complex affine quadric of dimension 3 but non algebraically isomorphic to it. We show in particular that…
