We generalize the classical Blaschke Rolling Theorem to convex domains in Riemannian manifolds of bounded sectional curvature and arbitrary dimension. Our results are sharp and, in this sharp form, are new even in the model spaces of…

The Rolling Ball Theorem asserts that given a convex body K in Euclidean space and having a smooth surface bd(K) with all principal curvatures not exceeding c>0 at all boundary points, K necessarily has the property that to each boundary…

Let $M$ be a $2$-space form. Let $P$ be a convex polygon in $M$. For these polygons, we define (and justify) a curvature $\kappa_i$ at each vertex $A_i$ of the polygon and and prove the following Blaschke's type theorem: If $P$ is a convex…

For a circle $ C $ contained in the unit disk, the necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a triangle inscribed in the unit circle and circumscribed about $ C $ is known as Chapple's formula. The geometric properties of…

We say that a simple, closed curve $\gamma$ in the plane has bounded convex curvature if for every point $x$ on $\gamma$, there is an open unit disk $U_x$ and $\varepsilon_x>0$ such that $x\in\partial U_x$ and $B_{\varepsilon_x}(x)\cap…

The Blaschke-Lebesgue Theorem states that among all planar convex domains of given constant width B the Reuleaux triangle has minimal area. It is the purpose of the present note to give a direct proof of this theorem by analyzing the…

For a convex domain $D$ that is enclosed by the hypersurface $\partial D$ of bounded normal curvature, we prove an angle comparison theorem for angles between $\partial D$ and geodesic rays starting from some fixed point in $D$, and the…

The classical Gauss--Lucas theorem describes the location of the critical points of a polynomial. There is also a hyperbolic version, due to Walsh, in which the role of polynomials is played by finite Blaschke products on the unit disk. We…

The problem of a disc and a ball rolling on a horizontal plane without slipping is considered. Differential constrained equations are shown to be integrated when the trajectory of the point of contact is taken in a form of the natural…

The classical Julia-Wolff-Caratheodory theorem gives a condition ensuring the existence of the non-tangential limit of both a bounded holomorphic function and its derivative at a given boundary point of the unit disk in the complex plane.…

In this paper we prove an extension of the Blaschke-Lebesgue theorem for a family of convex domains called disk-polygons. Also, this provides yet another new proof of the Blaschke-Lebesgue theorem.

An existence theorem for stationary discs of strongly pseudoconvex domains in almost complex manifolds is proved. More precisely, it is shown that, for all points of a suitable neighborhood of the boundary and for any vector belonging to…

In this paper we establish a gap theorem for the complex geometry of smoothly bounded convex domains which informally says that if the complex geometry near the boundary is close to the complex geometry of the unit ball, then the domain…

We extend the Cauchy residue theorem to a large class of domains including differential chains that represent, via canonical embedding into a space of currents, divergence free vector fields and non-Lipschitz curves. That is, while the…

We show that the boundary of a rotating vortex patch (or V-state, in the terminology of Deem and Zabusky) is of class C^infinity provided the patch is close enough to the bifurcation circle in the Lipschitz norm. The rotating patch is…

The classical theorem of Bloch (1924) asserts that if $f$ is a holomorphic function on a region that contains the closed unit disk $|z|\leq 1$ such that $f(0) = 0$ and $|f'(0)| = 1$, then the image domain contains discs of radius…

We prove a Ros-Rosenberg theorem in the setting of Special Weingarten surfaces. We show that a compact, connected, embedded, Special Weingarten surface in $\mathhb{R}^3$ with planar convex boundary is a topological disk under mild suitable…

It is well known that a ramified holomorphic covering of a closed unitary disc by another such a disc is given by a finite Blaschke product. The inverse is also true. In this note we give an explicit description of holomorphic ramified…

Higher regularity estimate has been a challenging question for the Boltzmann equation in bounded domains. Indeed, it is well-known to have "the non-existence of a second order derivative at the boundary" in [15] even for symmetric convex…

We characterize two classical types of conformality of a holomorphic self-map of the unit disk at a boundary point - existence of a finite angular derivative in the sense of Carath\'eodory and the weaker property of angle preservation - in…
