A surface M is called p-minimal if one of the coordinate functions is p-harmonic in the inner metric. We show that in the twodimensional case the Gaussian map of such surfaces is quasiconformal. In the case when the surface is a tube we…

The existence of Dirichlet minimizing multiple-valued functions for given boundary data has been known since pioneering work of F. Almgren. Here we prove a multiple-valued analogue of the classical Plateau problem of the existence of…

Properties of local and global slope of a function and its approximate critical points sets are studied in relation to determination of the function.

The Riemann-Roch theorem is of utmost importance in the algebraic geometric theory of compact Riemann surfaces. It tells us how many linearly independent meromorphic functions there are having certain restrictions on their poles. The aim of…

We discuss the action of a subgroup on small nilpotent orbits, and prove a bounded multiplicity property for the restriction of minimal representations of real reductive Lie groups with respect to arbitrary reductive symmetric pairs.

Let $a$ be a real number satisfying $0<a<\pi$. We denote by $M_n(a)$ the configuration space of regular spherical $n$-gons with side-lengths $a$. The purpose of this paper is to determine $\chi (M_n(a))$ for all $a$ and odd $n$. To do so,…

We use noncommutative localization to construct a chain complex which counts the critical points of a circle-valued Morse function on a manifold, generalizing the Novikov complex. As a consequence we obtain new topological lower bounds on…

A class is studied of complex valued functions defined on the unit disk (with a possible exception of a discrete set) with the property that all their Pick matrices have not more than a prescribed number of negative eigenvalues. Functions…

The following theorem is proved: Let M be a locally Lipschitz hypersurface in C^n with one-sided extension property at each point (e.g., without analytic discs). Let S be a closed subset of M and f : M \ S ---> C^m \ E is a CR-mapping of…

The potential applications of boundary functionals of random processes, such as the extreme values of these processes, the moment of first reaching a fixed level, the value of the process at the moment of reaching the level, the moment of…

Using an annular version of the F. and M. Riesz theorem, we prove a generalization of the Rudin-Carleson theorem for finitely connected bounded domains. That is, for a continuous function on a closed set in the boundary of measure zero…

We determine which connected surfaces can be partitioned into topological circles. There are exactly seven such surfaces up to homeomorphism: those of finite type, of Euler characteristic zero, and with compact boundary components. As a…

In the minimal surface theory, the Krust theorem asserts that if a minimal surface in the Euclidean 3-space $\mathbb{E}^3$ is the graph of a function over a convex domain, then each surface of its associated family is also a graph. The same…

We study the blow-up behaviour of minimizing sequences for the singular Moser-Trudinger functional on compact surfaces. Assuming non-existence of minimum points, we give an estimate for the infimum value of the functional. This result can…

In this paper, we study the shift on the space of uniformly bounded continuous functions band-limited in a given compact interval with the standard topology of tempered distributions. We give a constructive proof of the existence of minimal…

Let X be a projective variety which is covered by rational curves, for instance a Fano manifold over the complex numbers. In this setup, characterization and classification problems lead to the natural question: "Given two points on X, how…

This paper studies one-dimensional Ornstein-Uhlenbeck processes, with the distinguishing feature that they are reflected on a single boundary (put at level 0) or two boundaries (put at levels 0 and d>0). In the literature they are referred…

In this paper we prove two theorems. The first one is a structure result that describes the extrinsic geometry of an embedded surface with constant mean curvature (possibly zero) in a homogeneously regular Riemannian three-manifold, in any…

On an abstract Wiener space, assume that T is the solution of the quadratic Monge problem associated to the Wiener measure and a second one with a Radon-Nikodym derivative of exponential type. Under the finite information hypothesis, using…

We consider random topologies of surfaces generated by cubic interactions. Such surfaces arise in various contexts in 2-dimensional quantum gravity and as world-sheets in string theory. Our results are most conveniently expressed in terms…
