We provide the first non-trivial examples of quasi-isometric embeddings between curve complexes. These are induced either by puncturing a closed surface or via orbifold coverings. As a corollary, we give new quasi-isometric embeddings…

We use the wrinkling theorem proven in Y. Eliashberg and N. Mishachev, "Wrinkling of smooth mappings and its applications - I", Invent. Math., 130(1997), 345-369, to fully describe the homotopy type of the space of S-immersions, i.e.…

A general approach to compute the spherical measure of submanifolds in homogeneous groups is provided. We focus our attention on the homogeneous tangent space, that is a suitable weighted algebraic expansion of the submanifold. This space…

We consider unbounded curves without endpoints. Isomorphism is equivalence up to translation. Self-avoiding plane-filling curves cannot be periodic, but they can satisfy the local isomorphism property: We obtain a set $\Omega $ of coverings…

We investigate minimal degree smooth algebraic space filling curves on the product of projective lines. We prove that there are plenty of examples in an explicit sense, extending the existence result of Homma and Kim.

Poonen and Gabber independently showed that any smooth geometrically irreducible projective scheme over a finite field has a smooth space filling curve, that is, a smooth curve defined over the field and passes through all points over the…

We define and study analogs of curve graphs for infinite type surfaces. Our definitions use the geometry of a fixed surface and vertices of our graphs are infinite multicurves which are bounded in both a geometric and a topological sense.…

Can you stretch and reform a curve such that it fills a square completely? This question dates back to 18th century, the origin of space-filling curves. It was proved affirmatively by many great mathematicians. In this document, we…

We investigate the injectivity of the Frobenius map on thickenings of smooth varieties in projective space over a field of positive characteristic. We obtain uniform bounds -- i.e., independent of the characteristic -- on the thickening…

A smooth curve $\gamma: [0,1] \to \Ss^2$ is locally convex if its geodesic curvature is positive at every point. J. A. Little showed that the space of all locally convex curves $\gamma$ with $\gamma(0) = \gamma(1) = e_1$ and $\gamma'(0) =…

Let $\gamma$ be a filling curve on a topological surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g \geq 2$. The inf invariant of $\gamma$, denoted $m_{\gamma}$, is the infimum of the length function on the space of marked hyperbolic structures on $\Sigma$. This…

In this article, we introduce the notion of a curved absolute $\mathcal{L}_\infty$-algebra, a structure that behaves like a curved $\mathcal{L}_\infty$-algebra where all infinite sums of operations are well-defined by definition. We develop…

For each integer n, an n-folding curve is obtained by folding n times a strip of paper in two, possibly up or down, and unfolding it with right angles. Generalizing the usual notion of infinite folding curve, we define complete folding…

The modern theory of homogeneous structures begins with the work of Roland Fra\"iss\'e. The theory developed in the last seventy years is placed in the border area between combinatorics, model theory, algebra, and analysis. We turn our…

This paper is about a type of quantitative density of closed geodesics and orthogeodesics on complete finite-area hyperbolic surfaces. The main results are upper bounds on the length of the shortest closed geodesic and the shortest doubly…

Three themes of general topology: quotient spaces; absolute retracts; and inverse limits - are reapproached here in the setting of metrizable uniform spaces, with an eye to applications in geometric and algebraic topology. The results…

We show that a smooth unknotted curve in R^3 satisfies an isoperimetric inequality that bounds the area of an embedded disk spanning the curve in terms of two parameters: the length L of the curve and the thickness r (maximal radius of an…
