We prove that a geodesic net with three boundary (= unbalanced) vertices on a non-positively curved plane has at most one balanced vertex. We do not assume any a priori bound for the degrees of unbalanced vertices. The result seems to be…

We construct a new family of infinite-dimensional quasi-graded Lie algebras on hyperelliptic curves. We show that constructed algebras possess infinite number of invariant functions and admit a decomposition into the direct sum of two…

Every graph of size $q$ (the number of edges) and minimum degree $\delta$ is hamiltonian if $q\le\delta^2+\delta-1$. The result is sharp.

We present new examples of topologically convex edge-ununfoldable polyhedra, i.e., polyhedra that are combinatorially equivalent to convex polyhedra, yet cannot be cut along their edges and unfolded into one planar piece without overlap.…

We extend the notion of a star unfolding to be based on a simple quasigeodesic loop Q rather than on a point. This gives a new general method to unfold the surface of any convex polyhedron P to a simple, planar polygon: shortest paths from…

The homotopy theory of representations of nets of algebras over a (small) category with values in a closed symmetric monoidal model category is developed. We illustrate how each morphism of nets of algebras determines a change-of-net…

In this work, we show the geometric properties of a family of polyhedra obtained by folding a regular tetrahedron along regular triangular grids. Each polyhedron is identified by a pair of nonnegative integers. The polyhedron can be cut…

We construct a new infinite-dimensional family of homogeneous quasimorphisms on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the two-sphere. Moreover, for any constant $K$ less than the total area of the sphere, we produce unbounded…

It is well-known that every isosceles tetrahedron (disphenoid) admits infinitely many simple closed geodesics on its surface. They can be naturally enumerated by pairs of co-prime integers $n > m > 1$ with two additional cases $(1,0)$ and…

Bowden, Hensel, and Webb constructed infinitely many quasimorphisms on the diffeomorphism groups of orientable surfaces. In this paper, we extend their result to nonorientable surfaces. Namely, we prove that the space of nontrivial…

Let $Y\to X$ be a finite normal cover of a wedge of $n\geq 3$ circles. We prove that for any $v\neq 0\in H_1(Y;\mathbb{Q})$ there exists a lift $\widetilde{F}$ to $Y$ of a homotopy equivalence $F:X\to X$ so that the set of iterates…
