This work is the extension of the results by the author in [7] and [6] for low-genus surfaces. Let $S$ be an orientable, connected surface of finite topological type, with genus $g \leq 2$, empty boundary, and complexity at least $2$; as a…

This article investigates the subject of rigid compact complex manifolds. First of all we investigate the different notions of rigidity (local rigidity, global rigidity, infinitesimal rigidity, etale rigidity and strong rigidity) and the…

A subcomplex $\mathcal{X}$ of a cell complex $\mathcal{C}$ is called \emph{rigid} with respect to another cell complex $\mathcal{C}'$ if every injective simplicial map $\lambda:\mathcal{X} \rightarrow \mathcal{C}'$ has a unique extension to…

Any quasi-isometry of the complex of curves is bounded distance from a simplicial automorphism. As a consequence, the quasi-isometry type of the curve complex determines the homeomorphism type of the surface.

Graphs triangulating the $2$-sphere are generically rigid in $3$-space, due to Gluck-Dehn-Alexandrov-Cauchy. We show there is a \emph{finite} subset $A$ in $3$-space so that the vertices of each graph $G$ as above can be mapped into $A$ to…

Proof of existence of a complex structure on the six-sphere, followed by an explicit computation of its underlying integrable almost complex tensor by the aid of inner automorphisms of the octonions, is exhibited. Both are elementary and…

We consider a class of overdetermined problems in rotationally symmetric spaces, which reduce to the classical Serrin's overdetermined problem in the case of the Euclidean space. We prove some general integral identities for rotationally…
