We show that there always exists an inscribed square in a Jordan curve given as the union of two graphs of functions of Lipschitz constant less than $1 + \sqrt{2}$. We are motivated by Tao's result that there exists such a square in the…

The "square peg problem" or "inscribed square problem" of Toeplitz asks if every simple closed curve in the plane inscribes a (non-degenerate) square, in the sense that all four vertices of that square lie on the curve. By a variety of…

Toeplitz's Square Peg Problem asks whether every continuous simple closed curve in the plane contains the four vertices of a square. It has been proved for various classes of sufficiently smooth curves, some of which are dense, none of…

The square peg problem asks whether every continuous curve in the plane that starts and ends at the same point without self-intersecting contains four distinct corners of some square. Toeplitz conjectured in 1911 that this is indeed the…

In this paper we deal with the task of uniformly approximating an $L$-biLipschitz curve by means of piecewise linear ones. This is rather simple if one is satisfied to have approximating functions which are $L'$-biLipschitz, for instance…

First we prove a Littlewood-Paley diagonalization result for bi-Lipschitz perturbations of the identity map on the real line. This result entails a number of corollaries for the Hilbert transform along lines and monomial curves in the…

Let $X$ be a Banach space or more generally a complete metric space admitting a conical geodesic bicombing. We prove that every closed $L$-Lipschitz curve $\gamma:S^1\rightarrow X$ may be extended to an $L$-Lipschitz map defined on the…

Toeplitz conjectured that any simple planar loop inscribes a square. Here we prove variants of Toeplitz' square peg problem. We prove Hadwiger's 1971 conjecture that any simple loop in $3$-space inscribes a parallelogram. We show that any…

We show that for every positive integer n there is a simple closed curve in the plane (which can be taken infinitely differentiable and convex) which has exactly n inscribed squares.

In the paper \cite{renato} Renato Targino shows that bi-Lipschitz type of plane curve is determined by the local ambient topological properties of curves. Here we show that it is not longer true in higher dimensions. However we show that…

We prove that, given a planar bi-Lipschitz homeomorphism $u$ defined on the boundary of the unit square, it is possible to extend it to a function $v$ of the whole square, in such a way that $v$ is still bi-Lipschitz. In particular,…

We show that a doubling measure on the plane can give positive measure to the graph of a continuous function. This answers a question by Wang, Wen and Wen. Moreover we show that the doubling constant of the measure can be chosen to be…

In the article the necessary and sufficient conditions for a representation of Lipschitz function of more than two variables as a difference of two convex functions are formulated. An algorithm of this representation is given. The outcome…

We show that if $\gamma$ is a Jordan curve in $\mathbb{R}^2$ which is close to a $C^2$ Jordan curve $\beta$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$, then $\gamma$ contains an inscribed square. In particular, if $\kappa > 0$ is the maximum unsigned curvature of…

A well-known theorem of Wolpert shows that the Weil-Petersson symplectic form on Teichm\"uller space, computed on two infinitesimal twists along simple closed geodesics on a fixed hyperbolic surface, equals the sum of the cosines of the…

We prove several results concerning the theory of Toeplitz algebras over $p$-Fock spaces using a correspondence theory of translation invariant symbol and operator spaces. The most notable results are: The full Toeplitz algebra is the norm…

A closed subscheme of codimension two $T \subset P^2$ is a quasi complete intersection (q.c.i.) of type $(a,b,c)$ if there exists a surjective morphism $\mathcal{O} (-a) \oplus \mathcal{O} (-b) \oplus \mathcal{O} (-c) \to \mathcal{I} _T$.…

We give an exponential upper and a quadratic lower bound on the number of pairwise non-isotopic simple closed curves can be placed on a closed surface of genus g such that any two of the curves intersects at most once. Although the gap is…

We find conditions under which Almgren-Pitts min-max for the prescribed geodesic curvature functional in a closed oriented Riemannian surface produces a closed embedded curve of constant curvature. In particular, we find a closed embedded…

Let $\mathcal{C}(S_{g,p})$ denote the curve complex of the closed orientable surface of genus $g$ with $p$ punctures. Masur-Minksy and subsequently Bowditch showed that $\mathcal{C}(S_{g,p})$ is $\delta$-hyperbolic for some…
