Whittaker functions are special functions that arise in $p$-adic number theory and representation theory. They may be defined on representations of reductive groups as well as their metaplectic covering groups: fascinatingly, many of their…

Given a convex set $C$ in a real vector space $E$ and two points $x,y\in C$, we investivate which are the possible values for the variation $f(y)-f(x)$, where $f:C\longrightarrow [m,M]$ is a bounded convex function. We then rewrite the…

A pointed convex cone naturally induces a partial order, and further a notion of nondecreasingness for functions. We consider extended real-valued functions defined on the cone. Monotone conjugates for these functions can be defined in an…

A fundamental result of Lappan [Comment. Math. Helv. \textbf{49} (1974), 492-495.] states that a meromorphic function $f$ in the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ is normal if and only if its spherical derivative is bounded on a five-point subset $E…

Any ruled surface in Euclidean 3-space is described as a curve of unit dual vectors in the algebra of dual quaternions (=the even Clifford algebra of type (0,3,1)). Combining this classical framework and Singularity Theory, we characterize…

We introduce a (bi)category $\mathfrak{Sing}$ whose objects can be functorially assigned spaces of distributions and generalized functions. In addition, these spaces of distributions and generalized functions possess intrinsic notions of…

We first show that existence results due to Kazdan-Warner and Cruz-Vit\'orio can be extended to the category of manifolds with an isolated conical singularity. More precisely, we check that, under suitable conditions on the link manifold,…

We study in this work flat surfaces with conical singularities, that is, surfaces provided with a flat structure with conical singular points. Finding good parameters for these surfaces in the general case is an open question. We give an…

A short proof of the Caratheodory conjecture about index of an isolated umbilic on the convex 2-dimensional sphere is suggested. The argument is based on the study of geodesic lines near cone-type singularity of a metric induced by…

Rational coefficients of special functions in scattering amplitudes are known to simplify on singular surfaces, often diverging less strongly than the na\"ive expectation. To systematically study these surfaces and rational functions on…
