Let the circle act effectively in a Hamiltonian fashion on a compact symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$. Assume that the fixed point set $M^{S^1}$ has exactly two components, $X$ and $Y$, and that $\dim(X) + \dim(Y) +2 = \dim(M)$. We first…

It is shown that the geometry of locally homogeneous multisymplectic manifolds (that is, smooth manifolds equipped with a closed nondegenerate form of degree > 1, which is locally homogeneous of degree k with respect to a local Euler field)…

We enumerate a necessary condition for the existence of infinitely many geometrically distinct, non-constant, prime closed geodesics on an arbitrary closed Riemannian manifold $M$. That is, we show that any Riemannian metric on $M$ admits…

Let G be a noncocompact irreducible arithmetic group over a global function field K of characteristic p, and let H be a finite-index, residually p-finite subgroup of G. We show that the cohomology of H in the dimension of its associated…

The $d$-dimensional hypercube graph $Q_d$ has as vertices all subsets of $\{1,\ldots,d\}$, and an edge between any two sets that differ in a single element. The Ruskey-Savage conjecture asserts that every matching of $Q_d$, $d\ge 2$, can be…

A geodesic flower is a finite collection of geodesic loops based at the same point $p$ that satisfy the following balancing condition: The sum of all unit tangent vectors to all geodesic arcs meeting at $p$ is equal to the zero vector. In…

We show that two-dimensional billiard systems are Turing complete, in the sense that the halting of any Turing machine with a given input is equivalent to a certain bounded trajectory in this system entering a specified open set. Billiards…

We show that every orthogonal polyhedron of genus at most 2 can be unfolded without overlap while using only a linear number of orthogonal cuts (parallel to the polyhedron edges). This is the first result on unfolding general orthogonal…

Given any rectangular polyhedron 3-manifold $P$ tiled with unit cubes, we find infinitely many explicit directions related to cubic algebraic numbers such that all half-infinite geodesics in these directions are uniformly distributed in…

We determine a particular class of Roter type warped product manifolds. We show that every manifold of that class admits a geodesic mapping onto a some Roter type warped product manifold. Moreover, both geodesically related manifolds are…

Eberhard-type theorems are statements about the realizability of a polytope (or more general polyhedral maps) given the valency of its vertices and sizes of its polygonal faces up to a linear linear degree of freedom. We present new…

A closed quasigeodesic is a closed curve on the surface of a polyhedron with at most $180^\circ$ of surface on both sides at all points; such curves can be locally unfolded straight. In 1949, Pogorelov proved that every convex polyhedron…
