The first part of this article intends to present the role played by Thom in diffusing Smale's ideas about immersion theory, at a time (1957) where some famous mathematicians were doubtful about them: it is clearly impossible to make the…

The h-principle is a powerful tool for obtaining solutions to partial differential inequalities and partial differential equations. Gromov discovered the h-principle for the general partial differential relations to generalize the results…

In 1969 M. Gromov in his PhD thesis greatly generalized Smale-Hirsch-Phillips immersion-submersion theory by proving what is now called the h-principle for invariant open differential relations over open manifolds. Gromov extracted the…

In this paper we introduce the notion of the realifications of an arbitrary \emph{partial holomorphic relation}. Our main result states that if any realification of an open partial holomorphic relation over a Stein manifold satisfies a…

We introduce orthogonal ring patterns in the 2-sphere and in the hyperbolic plane, consisting of pairs of concentric circles, which generalize circle patterns. We show that their radii are described by a discrete integrable system. This is…

The Kervaire Invariant 1 Problem until recently was an open problem in algebraic topology. Hill-Hopkins-Ravenel theorem clams a negative solution of the problem for all dimensions $n=2^l-2$, $l \ge 8$. We prove the statement of…

Wrinkling techniques, introduced by Eliashberg and Mishachev, are typically used to prove h-principles of the form: ``formal solutions of a partial differential relation $\mathcal{R}$ can be deformed to singular/wrinkled solutions''. What a…

We introduce a natural geometric framework for the study of logarithmically divergent integrals on manifolds with corners and algebraic varieties, using the techniques of logarithmic geometry. Key to the construction is a new notion of…
