Let $X$ be a smooth compact manifold and $v$ a vector field on $X$ which admits a smooth function $f: X \to \mathbf R$ such that $df(v) > 0$. Let $\partial X$ be the boundary of $X$. We denote by $C^\infty(X)$ the algebra of smooth…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, and let $X/k$ be a projective variety. The conjectures of Demailly--Green--Griffiths--Lang posit that every integral subvariety of $X$ is of general type if and only if $X$ is…

Let $f: \mathbb{T}^2 \to \mathbb{T}^2$ be a homeomorphism homotopic to the identity and $F: \mathbb{R}^2 \to \mathbb{R}^2$ a lift of $f$ such that the rotation set $\rho(F)$ is a line segment of rational slope containing a point in…

We consider generic curves in R^2, i.e. generic C^1 functions f from S^1 to R^2. We analyze these curves through the persistent homology groups of a filtration induced on S^1 by f. In particular, we consider the question whether these…

For every finite collection of curves on a surface, we define an associated (semi-)norm on the first homology group of the surface. The unit ball of the dual norm is the convex hull of its integer points. We give an interpretation of these…

Let $M \subset {\mathbb{C}}^{n+1}$, $n \geq 2$, be a real codimension two CR singular real-analytic submanifold that is nondegenerate and holomorphically flat. We prove that every real-analytic function on $M$ that is CR outside the CR…

Given a projective algebraic set X, its dual graph G(X) is the graph whose vertices are the irreducible components of X and whose edges connect components that intersect in codimension one. Hartshorne's connectedness theorem says that if…

We prove that the distortion function of the Gauss map of a harmonic surface coincides with the distortion function of the surface. Consequently, Gauss map of a harmonic surface is ${\mathcal{K}}$ quasiregular if and only if the surface is…

Let $G$ be a countable group and $X$ be a totally regular curve. Suppose that $\phi:G\rightarrow {\rm Homeo}(X)$ is a minimal action. Then we show an alternative: either the action is topologically conjugate to isometries on the circle…

Many classically used function space structures (including the topology of pointwise convergence, the compact-open topology, the Isbell topology and the continuous convergence) are induced by a hyperspace structure counterpart. This scheme…

Let $S$ be a surface of finite type which is not a sphere with at most four punctures, a torus with at most two punctures, or a closed surface of genus two. Let $\mathcal{MF}$ be the space of equivalence classes of measured foliations of…

Let $G$ be a simple graph on $n$ vertices, and let $J_G$ denotes the corresponding binomial edge ideal in $S=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\ldots,x_n,y_1,\ldots,y_n]$, where $\mathbb{K}$ is a field. We show that if a vertex satisfies a certain degree…

We consider distributions on a closed compact manifold $M$ as maps on smoothing operators. Thus spaces of certain maps between $\Psi^{-\infty}(M)\to \mathcal{C}^{\infty}(M)$ are considered as generalized functions. For any collection of…

The zero locus of a function f on a graph G is defined as the graph with vertex set consisting of all complete subgraphs of G, on which f changes sign and where x,y are connected if one is contained in the other. For d-graphs, finite simple…

We give a novel and effective criterion for algebraicity of rational normal analytic surfaces constructed from resolving the singularity of an irreducible curve-germ on $CP^2$ and contracting the strict transform of a given line and all but…

A rational function on a real algebraic curve $C$ is called separating if it takes real values only at real points. Such a function defines a covering $\Bbb R C\to\Bbb{RP}^1$. Let $A_1,\dots,A_n$ be connected components of $C$. In a recent…

We consider closed orientable surfaces $S$ of genus $g>1$ and homeomorphisms $f:S\rightarrow S$ homotopic to the identity. A set of hypotheses is presented, called fully essential system of curves $\mathscr{C}$ and it is shown that under…

Given a positive function $F$ on $S^n$ which satisfies a convexity condition, we define the $r$-th anisotropic mean curvature function $H^F_r$ for hypersurfaces in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ which is a generalization of the usual $r$-th mean…

Suppose C is a singular curve in CP^2 and it is topologically an embedded surface of genus g; such curves are called cuspidal. The singularities of C are cones on knots K_i. We apply Heegaard Floer theory to find new constraints on the sets…
