A method is described for constructing, with computer assistance, planar substitution tilings that have n-fold rotational symmetry. This method uses as prototiles the set of rhombs with angles that are integer multiples of pi/n, and…
One well studied way to construct quasicrystalline tilings is via inflate-and-subdivide (a.k.a. substitution) rules. These produce self-similar tilings--the Penrose, octagonal, and pinwheel tilings are famous examples. We present a…
In this note we extend a theorem from [13] about uniform circle random coverings
We survey recent progress on the birational geometry of foliations on complex varieties. We focus on the MMP viewpoint: singularities, adjunction and applications to the MMP for foliations on surfaces and to the existence of flips on…
Continuing results from JCDCGGG 2016 and 2017, we solve several new cases of the simple foldability problem -- deciding which crease patterns can be folded flat by a sequence of (some model of) simple folds. We give new efficient algorithms…
After surveying some known properties of compact convex sets in the plane, we give a two rigorous proofs of the general feeling that supporting lines can be slide-turned slowly and continuously. Targeting a wide readership, our treatment is…
In this short note, we present certain generalized versions of the commutator formulas of some natural operators on manifolds, and give some applications.
We develop the theory of layered posets, and use the notion of layering to prove a new iteration theorem (Theorem 6): if $\kappa$ is weakly compact then any universal Kunen iteration of $\kappa$-cc posets (each possibly of size $\kappa$) is…
\citet{Shmuel2016JMPS} discovered that all infinite band structures of waves at normal incidence in two-phase laminates are encapsulated in a compact universal manifold. We show that manifolds of higher dimensionality encapsulate the band…
A generalised trapezoid inequality for convex functions and applications for quadrature rules are given. A refinement and a counterpart result for the Hermite-Hadamard inequalities are obtained and some inequalities for pdf's and…
We apply the invariant theory of surfaces in the four-dimensional Euclidean space to the class of general rotational surfaces with meridians lying in two-dimensional planes. We find all minimal super-conformal surfaces of this class.
New results on uniform convergence in probability for the most general classes of wavelet expansions of stationary Gaussian random processes are given.
We prove a universal property for blow-ups in regularly immersed subschemes, based on a notion we call "virtual effective Cartier divisor". We also construct blow-ups of quasi-smooth closed immersions in derived algebraic geometry.
This paper addresses the problem of existence of generalized Landsberg structures on surfaces using the Cartan-K\"ahler Theorem and a Path Geometry approach.
This note presents an interesting counterexample to a basic covering problem.
This paper investigates a generalized version of Diophantine tuples in finite fields. Applying Shparlinski's method, we obtain power-saving results on the number of such tuples.
We prove that the image of the lifted period map on the universal cover lies in a complex Euclidean space. We also prove that the Teichm\"uller spaces of a class of polarized manifolds have complex affine structures.
We establish the slope equality and give an upper bound of the slope for finite cyclic covering fibrations of an elliptic surface including bielliptic fibrations of genus greater than 5. We also give an upper bound of the slope for triple…
We provide a generalization of first-order necessary conditions of optimality for infinite-dimensional optimization problems with a finite number of inequality constraints and with a finite number of inequality and equality constraints. Our…
We find explicit optimal vertex, edge and face coulourings for the chair tiling, the Ammann--Beenker tiling, the rational pinwheel tiling and the pinwheel tiling.
